Dear Bhagavathas,

I had a very nice and fortunate trip to some of the chola nadu divya desams 
during the year end holidays and returned today.

I visited kabisthalam, Thirukannapuram, Thirukkanamangai ,Thirunarayoor and
Thiruvinnagaram on the first day and on the next day went to Thanjai Maamani 
Koil,Aaduthurai,Thirumandangudi, Pullamboothangudi ,Adhanur and Nandipura 
Vinnagaram.



Thirukkannapuram looks bright and sparkling after the samprokshanam,The huge 
tank is also in quite a good condition.  I went on Amavasya day when
perumal gives Darshanam to Vibheeshanazhwar,just missed it by couple of 
hours.At thirukkanamangai i found some interesting information about the
lands owned by the temple.This is displayed on the side wall as we enter the 
temple.Some details are

         Nanjai Land 102 Acres
         Punjai Land  53.25 acres
         Thoppu        35 acres

 Revenue from lands is about Rs 1 lakh and total revenue is about 1.42 
lakhs.From the lands owned by the temple much more can be recovered and a
facelift is necessary given the condition of the temple.

At thirumandangudi(Thondaradipodi azhwar avatara sthalam) i found good local 
interest and participation from the local village folks who are eager to show 
you around.Small boys were proud of plucking thulasi leaves for the temple.I 
found some boys removing grass using spades in  Thirukoodalur (Aaduthurai) 
.This was my first visit to aduthurai so by going through the earlier mails on 
this temple there seems to be lot of improvement.I went around the thayar 
sannidhi which has been renovated recently.Again some local folks showed me the 
sacred tree where perumal's "shangu" can be seen.

Renovation work on Thiru pullaboothamgudi and Adhanur are in progress.

Nandipura Vinnagaram is in a interior location surrounded by paddy fields and 
it is not easy to locate the temple.A prominent display board  near the main 
road leading to the temple is necessary ,which is also true for some other 
temples

Mahasamprokshanam for the temple at Nandipura Vinnagaram is planned for 
23-1-2006.An elaborate 4 day programme has been chalked out and Funds are being 
raised through public donations.From the pamphlets that i have following is the 
information for those interested in sending contributions

The Secretary,
Sri Jagannatha perumal Kainkarya Saba
Nathankoil ,Kumbakonam 612703

payable at Punjab National Bank Kumbakonam A/c No 0285000100107523
Ph 0435-2417575

A very enjoyable and satisfying trip for me.Thanks to all bhagavathas for their 
 suggestions on what materials we could take to the temples and for lots of 
other information which was very useful
