Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much, much too late
Well, maybe we should all be praying for time

They churn out so much knowledge that even a Dummkopf like me picks up titbits.
But then, I have my advantages. I simply pack a bag and go... 😋
Some time ago, GA had posted an image of a लकुलीश vigraha from a rock cut temple near AritApaTTi, a village underneath the hills, some distance outside Madurai.
So I went. To see. To seek. To pray.
Following Google's instructions, I went past a spectacularly picturesque countryside and down the road for about 4.5 km only to reach this hillock with a small lake.
To the left of the lake was a tiny Hamlet and the kind people guided me to cross over to a surreal experience.
Vadachennimalai Murugan temple. Subramanya appears in 3 forms - as a smiling child in the sanctum, as a grihasta with VaLLi & Deivanai and as an ascetic danDAyuthapANi. All three forms are swayambhu, as the legend goes.
Flyover visit! 😄
A couple of km away, Darth Vader looms.
Almost as if he's on his way to grab the rich fertile lands on the other side of the road.
