Thirunarayanapuram (Melukote ) Cheluvaraya Narayana

Thirunarayanapuram (Melukote )
Cheluvaraya Narayana


Melukote ( Thirunarayanapuram) is built on rocky hills, known as Yadugiri, Yaadavagiri and Yadushailadeepa, overlooking the Cauvery valley In Mandya District. This temple is 1000 years old. This Vaishnava temple shrine was established by Bhagavath Ramanuja with the help of local King and is considered as Then Badri.

Famous festival Vairamudi takes place once a year. Since 2007 I tried to visit places where Bhagavath Ramanuja had undertaken Yatra such as Sriperambudur, Kanchi, Srirangam, Thirukurungudi, Srikoormam, Thiruvanathapuram and Thirunarayanapuram. Finally I got an opportunity to visit this Temple on Chithirai Thiruvathirai Day. I had darshan of Very beautiful Thiru Cheluva Narayana moolavar deity and Sri. Samapth Kumar’s utsavar deity as well as that of Thaamar Ugantha Thirumeni of Bhagavath Ramanuja.
There is Kalyani pushkarini and yoga Naraslmhar temple on the top of a hill.
Here is song depicting What I saw and learned there.
I had planned to visit this temple this year but Cheluva Narayana's sankalpam is different.
