SRI KOTTIYOOR SHRI MAHADEVA KSHETRAM, DAKSHINA KASHI OR VARANASI OF THE SOUTH, LORD SHIVA AND WIFE SATI , ODAPOO DAKSHA PRAJAPATI’S BEARD, PILGRIMAGE IN WATER SANS TEMPLE- CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL
Today our lady cook has come back from the annual Kottiyoor temple festival with Odapoo ( Auda ) strands for my wife, which she has given pride of place in our puja room.
This Kottiyoor temple is unsung and unknown outside Kerala. Hindus in Kerala have tried to keep it that way since recent times.
Soulless Kerala communist governments and successive Italian Queen Bee’s governments under the influence of JOSHUA PROJECT 2 , have tried their best to take away the temple lands around this most holy and ancient spot for Hindus around the world, quoting the environment .
They want the Hindus to give up their souls for a few wild pigs and bison. Remember foreign funded Christian NGOs and atheist rationalist NGOs are still trying to make the trekking areas to Sabarimala, a restricted animal sanctuary. Sabarimala has beaten the Kumbh Mela in numbers when you average out the figures.
Earlier in 1971 , 27,000 acres of Kottiyoor Temple land was captured under Indian Forest laws in an arbitrary manner. After a sustained legal tussle in 1980, 107 acres of land full of medicinal herbs and special trees surrounding the temple was given back to Kottiyoor temple authorities.
The Kerala Government , (with communists and Christians at the helm) , who has NIL respect for ancient Indian culture and more respect for Islamic Saudi and Catholic Italy culture , challenged the court order in Supreme Court, but fortunately the Indian Supreme Court dismissed the Kerala Government appeal.
The forest ministry send notice to Kottiyoor temple again to capture the left over land citing the land as ecologically fragile- the whole idea to to erase this part of Hindu history dated to antiquity.
I will now let the rest of India know why this temple is so important to our Indian culture. This is who we are.
Meanwhile we suffered 800 years of slavery under Muslim and Christian invaders ,who converted Indians to Islam and Christianity. These people who been born into the religions of their parents ( forced by sword and sops ) do NOT care for Indian ancient Indian culture — it has become poison for them.
Hindus in Andhra Pradesh will remember how chief minister YSR , with the connivance of the Italian Queen Bee ( Joshua Project 2 ) , tried to capture the holy Tirumala hills and plant a cross.
Or for the matter how the foreign funded Tamilian Christian missionary NGOs destroyed the Vivekananda memorial and planted a cross at Rameshwaram rock, giving propaganda that it was NOT Swami Vivekananda who meditated there, but Portuguese missionary Francis Xavier.
Now let me first narrate the lore--
Legend goes that Sati was born when the gods concentrated their energy at a point on the ground to create a girl powerful enough to destroy even the fiercest of demons. The goddess, took human birth at the bidding of the god Brahma. Beautiful and chaste Sati was born as the youngest daughter of Daksha Prajapati and his wife Prasuti.
Daksha was a son of Brahma and a great king and magnate in his own right. The girl was named Gauri, "the turmeric-hued one," As the daughter of Daksha, she is also known as Dakshayani. She is also called Sati By this logic, Sati is grand-daughter of Brahma by Daksha, but is also great grand-daughter of Brahma because Prasuti is daughter of Manu (Manu is son of Brahma).
In bidding the Goddess to take human birth, Brahma's design was that she should please Shiva with humble devotions and wed him. It was natural that Gauri ( Sati ) , even as a child, adored the tales and legends associated with Shiva and grew up an ardent devotee. As Sati grew to womanhood, the idea of marrying anyone else, as intended by her father, became anathema to her.
Every proposal from handsome, valiant and rich kings made her crave ever more for the firm limbed ascetic of Kailasa, the God of Gods, who bestowed all on this world and himself foreswore all. To win the regard of the ascetic Shiva, the daughter of king Daksha forsook the luxuries of her father's palace and retired to a forest, there to devote herself to austerities and the worship of Shiva.
So rigorous were her penances that she gradually renounced food itself, at one stage subsisting on one bilva leaf a day, and then giving up even that nourishment; this particular abstinence earned her the sobriquet Aparnā. Her prayers finally bore fruit when, after testing her resolve, Shiva finally acceded to her wishes and consented to make her his bride.
An ecstatic Sati returned to her father's home to await her bridegroom, but found her father less than elated by the turn of events. The wedding was however held in due course, and Sati made her home with Shiva in the icy Mount Kailasa. Daksha, depicted in legend as an arrogant king, did not get on with his renunciative son-in-law and basically cut his daughter away from her natal family.
Smouldering in indignation, and to get even , Daksha Prajapati, the father of Sati organized a grand yajna to which all the gods were invited, with the exception of his own daughter Sati and her husband Shiva. Wanting to visit her parents, relatives and childhood friends, Sati sought to rationalize this omission.
She reasoned within herself that her parents had neglected to make a formal invitation to them only because, as family, such formality was unnecessary; certainly, she needed no invitation to visit her own mother and would go anyway.
Sati pestered Shiva to come along with her to the Yajna ( homam ). Shiva maintained that they should not go uninvited. Shiva sought to dissuade her, but she was resolved upon going; he then provided her with an escort of his ganas and bid her provoke no incident.
Sati was received coldly by her father. They were soon in the midst of a heated argument about the virtues (and alleged lack thereof) of Shiva. Every passing moment made it clearer to Sati that her father was entirely incapable of appreciating the excellent qualities of her husband.
The realization then came to Sati that this abuse was being heaped on Shiva only because he had wed her; she was the cause of this dishonour to her husband. Sati noticed that no seat (assan) had been earmarked for her husband Shiva, even if he had gone, which meant a deliberate attempt to humiliate Shiva.
She was consumed by rage against her father and loathing for his mentality. Calling up a prayer that she may, in a future birth, be born the daughter of a father whom she could respect, Sati plunged herself into the blazing fire of the havankund of Yajna.
The exact spot where the yagya or homam took place , in which Sita self immolated is where the amazing and powerful Kottiyoor temple is situated in Kerala . This spot is THE oldest spot of Shiva-Sati worship in India.
Shiva sensed this catastrophe, and his rage was incomparable Shiva rushed to the spot and found Sati half burnt and dead.
He loved Sati more than any and would never love after her. In terrible rage he opened his destructive third eye and there rose Virabhadra and Bhadrakali, some call as [Manbhadra], two ferocious creatures who wreaked havoc and mayhem on the scene of the horrific incident.
Nearly all those present were indiscriminately felled overnight. Daksha himself was decapitated by Shiva with a sword, which is held by Kottiyoor temple.
Nearly all those present were indiscriminately felled overnight. Daksha himself was decapitated by Shiva with a sword, which is held by Kottiyoor temple.
The gruesome deed done , Shiva performed the fearsome and awe-inspiring Tandava dance, which caused the entire planet to tremble in fear . Kottiyoor is the place where Sati jumped into the fire and Shiva hacked Daksha with a sword.
Shiva then placed his wife Gauri's ( Sati ) body on his shoulder and ran about the world, disconsolate and crazed with grief.
In order to protect the universe from the wrath of Shiva, Lord Vishnu dismembered the body of Sati used his Sudarshana Chakra . T he dismembered parts of her body fell at 54 different places in India, Turkey, Azaerbaijan and Sri lanka.
These places came to be known as Shaktipeeths or centers of power. These places have become major centers of pilgrimage as they are held by the Goddess-oriented Shakta sect to be particularly holy.
After the night of horror, Shiva, the all-forgiving, restored all those who were slain to life and granted them his blessings. Even the abusive and culpable Daksha was restored both his life and his kingship.
His decapitated head was substituted for that of a goat. Having learned his lesson, Daksha spent his remaining years as a devotee of Shiva.
Satī, reincarnated as Parvati , Shiva’s second wife and is the mother of Lord Ganesha and Lord Skanda (Kartikeya).
She is also known by 108 names from the Durga Saptashati. Her different mood brings different forms or incarnation. Parvati is considered to be Goddess Kali herself in her most ferocious form. As Durga she is black in color and rides on lion, she is known as the original slayer of Demon Mahishasura.
54 Shakti Peethas of Sati, proves that all Goddesses are expansions of the Goddess Parvati.
In the Sri yantra divine geometry , revealed in 8000 BC to the Maharishi seers , the 3 lines intersect at 54 points ( number of sanskrit alphabets ) .
With Shiva and Shakti qualities ( Yin Yang ) making the magic number 108, or the number of beads in a Rudraksha mala
Later Lord Shiva took the form of Swayambhu linga and stayed next to where Sati immolated herself. Since all the gods and goddesses were present in the place , it got to be known as Koodiyur ( renamed by British as Kottiyoor ).
Above: Akkare Kottiyoor temple.
This sport is called Akkare Kottiyoor temple. Akkare means the other side of the Bavali river bank. Due to age and antiquity there is nothing there today , but a Manithara ( heap of stones ) with a Shiva Lingam .
There is a knee deep water pond ( Thiruvanchira ) around this Manithara with the swayambu Shiva Lingam, in which the devotees stand . Swayambhu means born on its own or not man made. Devotees can feel the power of this lingam.
According to the Sthala Purana , this spot was visited by Lord Parashurama when he came down to Kerala in 4000 BC from the Saraswati river. And since it was difficult for any devotee to cross the torrential river, an Ikkare Kottiyoor temple made of stone was consecrated. Ikkare means this side of the Bavali river bank.
This festival will be held on the Chothi asterism month of Edavam and culminates on the Chithira asterism of the Mithunam month
Akkare Kottiyoor temple , where there is only a mount of stones with a shiva lingam , remains open only on these 27 festival days . Daily worship is held at Ikkare Kottiyoor temple. But during these 27 days of festival at Akkare Kottiyoor temple, the Ikkare temple remains closed.
The 'abhishekam' (offering) here is with milk, ghee (clarified butter) and elannir vellam (tender coconut water). Pilgrims to the temple, before trekking through the dense forests to the magnificent valley of the Sahya mountain ranges, take a bath in the River Bavali, which is considered to be divine. During this time of the year the heavens do NOT rain, they pour—and the waters can be fast and torrential.
The pigrims have a dress code. They are not allowed to wear western pants and shirts. They have to wear a dhoti or mundu. Everybody has a local bath towel called thorthu on his shoulder.
The Auda Flower ( odapoo ) is considered as the symbol of Kottiyoor festival. It is representative of the beard of the decapitated king Daksha.
It is an artificial flower made of bamboo, and it will be created only during festival season. This flower is available only in Kottiyoor.
The festival also known as Akkare Kottiyoor Vaisakha Maholsavam festival will begin with a sword from Muthirikavu Temple in Tavinal village , taken to Akkare Kottiyur temple. It was believed that Daksha was hacked to death by this sword. The sword is made of alloy and is passivated with a protective patina .
Neyyattam ( offering of ghee ) and Elaneerattam( offering of tender coconut water) are special rituals connected with the festival.
Similar temporary huts cover the two deities of Shiva and Sati. A stone-walled channel, rather a ourished moat , through which living water courses, connects the temple ground to the river. Standing knee deep in water, throng thousands of devotees, bare-chested men in white dhotis and women in sarees.
Above : Ikkare Shiva temple consecrated by Lord Parashurama.
Through the water temple elephants sashay with idols on top and sword and shield-carrying priests preceeding them. In the theyyam stage, every evening dancers re-enact the Shiva Sati story. 'Bhandaram Ezhunnallath', is a ritual of divine ornaments being brought in procession from the nearby Manathana village to the temple.
You can feel divine energy the moment you step on this antique mythical land. The devotees running into hundreds of thousands go home with a deep inexplicable bond with this remote place deep in the vibrant jungle.
Imagine a Manithara ( heap of stones ) with a Shiva Lingam, steeped in legend , in the middle of a water pool , identified by Lord Parashurama 6000 years ago, is the only visible signs of this most holy spot of hoary antiquity.

Why do the devotees stand in knee deep water at Kottiyoor?
The Bavali river brings nano size colloids of herbs and healing minerals from the Wayanad hills . This is what living water or bio-energised miracle water is all about.
Low surface tension water ( normal is 73 dynes ) can store information for healing in its vibratory structure . Molecules of water are affected by our thoughts, words, and feelings. The average electron density around the oxygen atom in a water molecule is about 10 times that around the hydrogen atoms.
This non uniform distribution of positive and negative charges or strong dipole present in water leads to the substance’s unusual behavior.
A single molecule of water looks like a letter V at an angle of 105 deg , with one oxygen atom at the bottom point and two hydrogen atoms at the top. These atoms share some of their negatively charged electrons, forming a strong connection called a covalent bond.
This dipole causes immense scalar energy to usher in and out of the zero point field.
All water crystals have 6 branches-- but NO two are alike. If you reduce the surface tension of water from 73 dynes / cm 2 to 65 then the angle changes from 105 to 120. This water is good for the human body.
All Hindu temples are located near a water body, but this is the only temple where every devotee has to stand in knee deep water which has the ability to store and hold memory. In homeopathy the information copied to the water is being used to cancel out the information of the symptoms from the disease -- a wave cancellation effect.
Water is the master listener in the universe -- and you are mostly water. Human vibrational energy, thoughts, words, ideas and music, affect the molecular structure of water. Water registers precise molecular information about the world around it, and that is extremely sensitive to these frequencies coming into it.
Water remembers, or stores this information, and that it can transport this into new environments when it travels through various water cycles .
Scalar energy from the DNA of healers reduce the surface tension of water, and make the pH of the water more alkaline.
Molecules of water are affected by our thoughts, words, and feelings. The implications go beyond homeopathy and “energy medicine" and into the interaction between water and consciousness.
Water has a memory in which it stores information about the surrounding sounds, chemicals and even human emotions. Water retains information, even after the most stringent purification and filtration processes
Water blessed by healers have minor shifts in its molecular structure and decreases hydrogen bonding between the molecules, similar to what happens when water is exposed to magnets.
Now why do the devotees come with a tender coconut?
Since past 11000 years Hindu vedic rituals require breaking of the coconut at Yagnas. It is form of bloodless sacrifice. The liquid spilt is electrolytic plasma. For the uninitiated –it is just a pure offering to god.
Rather the purest as faster than light, neutrinos don't pass through it. Because of its capacity to dissolve numerous substances in large amounts, pure water rarely occurs in nature.
Potential is only manifested when we provide the frequency information through our intentions— concept of “mind over mater”. While breaking the coconut the devotee must INTEND as per the vedic traditions. This is to tune our self to the quantum level energy matrix, this energy is transferred to our DNA.
Human intention can create quantum fluctuations in the zero point field- a vast unharnessed energy source . We resonate in Zero Point Energy —human intention can influence the universe. Consciousness, is a form of EM energy, that focused thought (with intent) can achieve extraordinary things.
Your intention ( basically an impulse ) is a powerful activator of your internal pharmacy. “Deliver us from evil” is the usual intention . Each individual mind has access to the universal mind. Human perception occurs because of interactions between the subatomic particles of our brains and the quantum energy sea. We literally resonate the Cosmos.
The quantum field or pure consciousness is influenced by intention. Scalar waves from your mobius supercoil DNA couples with intention and consciousness. Intentions enhance the body’s natural flow of scalar energy produced by DNA.
Your DNA can send and receive powerful data through the universal network of ether..
Scalar waves can be created by wrapping electrical wires around a figure eight in the shape of a möbius coil. When an electric current flows through the wires in opposite directions, the opposing electromagnetic fields from the two wires cancel each other and create a scalar wave
The möbius coil intersection occurs just in front of the lungs, which contain a huge web-like network of capillary connections. This capillary network acts as a battery for the storage of scalar waves.
DNA is a self-calibrating antenna working by phase conjugate ( scalar waves and phase conjugation) adaptive resonance , capable of both receiving and transmitting quantum holographic information , stored in the form of diffraction patterns-quantum holograms.
Intention is like the tuning fork which causes other forks to resonate to the same frequency. Our intentions create our reality. As proved amply by the double slit experiment the consciousness of the observer brought the observed object into being.
Scalar waves are information carrying waves rather than energy waves. which are linked to human consciousness and are created by human thought and emotions. They are the interface between the mental and the physical world although we must keep in mind that in reality there is no duality between them.
Scalar waves encode the information of space and time into a timeless spaceless quantum shorthand of interference patterns. Collective consciousness is a life force flowing through the universe. Remember, our wishes and our intentions create our reality.
WHEN YOU BREAK THE COCONUT YOU MUST SHUT OFF YOUR INTERNAL MIND-MONKEY CHATTER, BE IN THE MOMENT FOR THE BRIEF ALPHA STATE WITHOUT EGO , MAKE YOUR " INTENTION" RING THE TUNING FORK OF YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS --
--TO RESONATE TO THE QUANTUM LEVEL ENERGY MATRIX AND UNLEASH THE SCALAR WAVES AT THE SPEED OF THOUGHT , LIKE A TSUNAMI -- NAY --SOLITON-- INTO THE FABRIC OF SPACE TIME , TO DO ITS OWN MIRACLE.
Grace and peace!
