India being a traditional country, parents believe that their children’s marriage is their own responsibility. So they take a lot of effort to accomplish their task at right time by finding a perfect match<\/strong> for them. Now, one of the most common problems that are faced in these marriages is <\/span>actually not being able to find the right match and getting delayed for marriage. A person\u2019s horoscope can tell the problem based on the positions of the planets. But when it comes to the solution, the only way is to visit the temples and seek the blessings of the Supreme Power.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Here are the Top 4 Must Visit temples for Marriage Boon!!<\/span><\/span> First in the list is Mangalambikai Sametha Sri Mangaleeshwarar Temple<\/strong>. As the name suggests, \u201cMangalyam\u201d means Thali and so it\u2019s clearly the apt temple for marriage boon.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The temple is near a place called Lalgudi<\/strong> that is around 22Kms from Trichy bus stand. Unmarried women born in Uthira Nakshathiram visit this temple to clear away the hurdles causing the delay in marriage. Here, we have a deity of one of the divine rishi named “Maangalya Maharishi<\/strong>” who was born on Uthira<\/strong> Nakshatram. He is considered to be the guru of all Devas and the one who blesses them on their wedding with Akshathai (Turmeric coated rice). It is also told that he is the person who decides the auspicious time for their marriage. He offers his prayers to Lord Maangaleeswarar every day to strengthen his power.<\/p>\n Women who seek the blessings for their marriage will have to light Ghee lamp in front of Maangalya Maharishi. Once the marriage is fixed, the first marriage invitation<\/strong> will be kept at the divine feet of Mangalya Maharishi in order invite him to grace their marriage. So, it is so clear that one, who seeks to get married, must visit this sthalam.<\/p>\n Next is the Mangaiyarkarasi sametha Sri Vedapureeshwarar Temple<\/strong> in a place called Thiruvedhikudi near Tiruvaiyaru<\/strong>. The main god is Lord Shiva and is called by the name Vedapureeshwarar or Vazhaimadunathar (Vazhai \u2013 Banana. Lord appearing from plantain field).<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The Sthala Purana says that an Asuran grabbed the Vedas<\/strong> from Lord Brahma and went deep into the sea. Then Lord Vishnu took an Avatar and got back the Vedas from the Asuran. Since all the Vedas were with an Asura, they all got the dosham.\u00a0 So all the Vedas performed Tapas towards Lord Shiva in this sthalam.\u00a0 Since all the Vedas performed tapas, this sthalam is called as “Tiru Vedhikkudi” and lord Shiva is called as “Vedhupureeswarar”.<\/p>\n The Goddess her is Mangaiyarkarasi <\/strong>(Mangayar \u2013 Women, Arasi \u2013 Queen) meaning Queen of all Women. Women who seek good husband offer Sarees, Thali and do Sandana Kappu to the Goddess. People, whose marriage gets delayed because of Sevvai Dosham<\/strong>, visit the temple and do abishekam for Lord Subramanya. This will reduce the effect of their dosham.<\/p>\n From the hymns of Thirunavukarasar and Gnana Sambandar, it is very clear that this is one of the dosha Nivarthi sthalam for marriages. By offering prayers and Abishekam to the Lord here, devotees will surely get a good life partner. After getting married, both the bride and the groom visit this temple as a note of Thanks and do special pooja.<\/p>\n The next significant temple for marriage boon is the Sivaloka Nayagi sametha Sishta Gurunathar <\/strong>temple. The temple is located in the place called Tiruthalur in Cuddalore<\/strong> district. The main deity is Lord Shiva in the form of Lingam and is known by the names Sishta Guru<\/strong> Natheshwarar \/ Thava Neri<\/strong> Aaludayar. The Goddess is Poongkodhai \/ Sivaloka Nayaki.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The Sthala Purana says when Saint Sundarar<\/strong> was traveling towards this place (Tiruthalur) from Thiruvennainallur, Thenpennai<\/strong> river was flowing in between and so he could not reach this place.\u00a0 So he sang Thevara Padal about Lord Shiva from the other bank of the river. Being impressed by the hymns, the God and the Goddess came in the disguise of an elderly couple and helped Sundarar to cross the river in a small boat. Once he reached the other shore, the Lord Shiva hid Himself and Sundarar could not find Him. The old man came and told Sundarar that the person whom he is searching for is right above him. As he said, Sundarar had a darshan of Lord Shiva and Goddess Ambika on Rishaba Vahana<\/strong> on the Gopuram of the temple. Sundarar pleaded lord Shiva to teach him the lessons on Tapas (penance). So Lord Shiva imparted his teachings at this sthala and so the Lord is known as Sishta Guru Nathar \/ Thava Neri Aaludayar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Another Sthala Purana says that, when the wedding<\/strong> of Lord Shiva happened with Goddess Parvathi in Mt. Kailash, Lord Shiva ordered the Sage Agasthiyar<\/strong> to travel to the South direction in order to balance the level of the earth (Since everybody has moved to North to witness the Grand wedding !!). During this travel, the sage Agasthiyar installed Shiva lingam and Goddess Ambikai at various places throughout his route. In this sthala too, he installed Shiva Lingam facing the West direction and the Ambikai facing the North<\/strong> direction (Since the wedding is taking place in the North). This form of North facing Goddess is a very rare one.<\/p>\n This place is also a Guru sthalam<\/strong> and special poojas are performed for Lord Shiva and Guru Dakshina Murthy to get rid of Marriage Doshams. People who seek the\u00a0blessing for their marriage, light the Ghee Deepams<\/strong> and do Vilva Archanai<\/strong> for 7 weeks. It is strongly believed that by doing so, all the doshas of marriage will get cleared and the marriage will be fixed soon.<\/p>\n Another important temple for removing the obstacles of marriage is the Shri Kokilambika Sametha Sri Kalyanasundareshwarar<\/strong> temple located at the place called Thirumananchery in\u00a0 Nagapattinam<\/strong> District.\u00a0 Thirumancheri \u2013 \u2018Thirumana\u2019 means Marriage, \u2018Cheri\u2019 means Village.<\/p>\n
