DEVOTION

DEVOTION Occasionally, a woman would come to pray at the Sastha temple here. Her legs are just two small appendages and she would crawl on her haunches. I admire her devotion to our Lord. I am told that she is a rich lady with car etc. She owns an orchard and rice fields in Chappakayal. In our temple premises, there is the temple of Cherukunnilamma; the original temple is at Kannur. I do not think there is another temple of this deity in this region. People used to do Bhagawathseva here. For Sastha, the main item is ada nivedyam. Except at Arattupuzha, this specialty is not available in any other temple.
