Jaya Jaya Shankara Hara Hara Shankara – Enjoy the splendid Valayal alankram for Sri Kamakshi Periyava @ Orikkai.
Note – For devotees who are new to Periyava Sathsangam, Orikkai (Oor Iravu Irukkai) is a small village near Kanchipuram where there is a mani mandapam built for Sri Maha Periyava. The specialty of this Mani Mandapam is that it is built based on ancient sculptures. The Manimantapam, with its towering vimana, hall of 100 majestic pillars and aesthetically carved images, paduka mantapam, rudraksha mantapam and the sanctum sanctorum is a stunning edifice that reminds one of the ancient temples built by great kings of the South. More importantly, Maha Periyava came in Sri Pradosham Mama’s dream and asked him to build a temple in Orikkai for him. He said he likes this place a lot and wants to reside here for ever. This project was approved by Sri Periyava himself when he was in his sthoola sareeram (physical form).
