K.P.C.Narayanan Bhattadiripad

K.P.C.Narayanan Bhattadiripad
My mother’s  home was Padinjaredath Mana, before her marriage. The family has he right t do Tantra of the famous Shiva temple there. Narayanan Bhattadiripad was the Tantry there. He worked as teacher in CNN Girls’ School. He has several brothers and sisters. Some of them are no more. He was the eldest among them. He conducted classes for young boys and girls, in reciting ‘aksharasloka’ at home, till recently, before he became ill. He has two sons and a daughter, all well settled.
At the time of his birth, the family lived in the imposing  ‘nalukettu’ just near the temple. After partition of the property, his father, Vishnu Bhattadiripd, built another new house, near the ‘chira’, where they live now.
Every time ‘murajapam’ was conducted in Thiruvananthapuram, by the King, a special country boat was sent to bring the family and friends . The ‘japam’ cannot be performed, without their presence.

One of their paternal uncles (appan), known as Ittyasuppan (Ittivasudevappan)married the sister of Shakthan Thampuran.
