                                                    TIRUVALLAVAZH

 

This Divya shetram is at Tiruvalla town near Kottayam in Kerala. The moolavar is Kolapiran also called Sri Vallappan in standing posture. The Thayar is Selvathirukozhundu Nachiyar. The Theertham is Kandakarna Theertham and the Vimanam Chathurangakola Vimanam. There is a shrine for Viswaksenar.

 

According to the sthala purana Shankara Mangalathammai used to observe Ekadasa vratham and feed one Brahmachari on the Dwadasi day. Tolakarana, a demon was creating hurdles to her vratham. Responding to her prayers the Lord killed the demon and came for the feast in the form of a Brahmachari, and later gave darsan to her with Lakshmi adorning His chest and gained the name Tiruvazhmarban.

The place Tiruvalla originates from the presiding deity Vallabha.
