Subject: Divya Desam series - Ayodhya (Tiruayodhi)

AYODHYA (Tiruayodhi)
 
This Divya shetram is 5 Kms from Faisabhad Railway station on the Mughalsarai Lucknow route in Uttar Pradesh.
 
Tiru Ayodhi is the first among the seven Mukthi shetrams. The moolavar is Lord Rama also called Chakravarthi Tirumagan in a seated posture. The Thayar is Sita and the Theertham is Sarayu Nadhi and the Vimanam Pushkala Vimanam.
 
The legend has it that Lord Vishnu took out Ayodhya, part of Vaikuntam and presented it to Manu the eldest son of Brahma, who brought it to Bhooloka and placed it on the banks of Sarayu River. The original temples, on which Azhwars have composed Divya prabhandam, ware destroyed by invaders, and now there are shrines for Ranganathar and Rama in Ammaji Temple on the banks of the river Sarayu.
Azhwar Mangalaasaasanam:
Periyazhwar ? 312, 314, 316, 321, 325, 399
Kulasekharaazhwar ? 724, 725, 741, 748
Thondarapadiazhwar ? 920
Tirumangai Azhwar ? 1875
Nammaazhar ? 3497 (pasuram number as found in Naalaayira Divya prabhandam)
