HARIKANYAKA TEMPLE NEAR GURUVAYUR
Every time we make a trip to God’s Own Country, I come back with an intense desire to get back. Sigh!! With the monsoon painting the country in various shades and making the earth and sky extra beautiful, who would want to comeback to the heat of Singara Chennai !!It was our annual trip to Guruvayur and our native place.The crowd at Guruvayur was unbelievable !! It was Ekadasi and the queue was serpentine. But--- no pulling. No pushing. Orderly. Disciplined. Everyone chanting the Lord’s name. Everyone after a bath and clean. The Darshan was great and we were able to come out within an hour.We visited the otherTemplesin Guruvayur. There are quite a few who arenot aware of the existence of otherTempleswhich one HAS to see in Guruvayur.The first and foremost is the Mammiyur Sivan Koil. In the outer Prakaram of the Guruvayoorappan behind theBhagawathyTemple, is a corner from where you gaze towards the direction of theMammiyurSivaTempleand pray. Siva and Parvathy were originally at the spot where theAppanTemplestands now and directed Guru and Vayu to install the Guruvayurappan Idol here, vacated the place and moved over to Mammiyur. It is believed that the worship of Shree Guruvayurappan is complete only when one worships at theMammiyurSivaTemplealso.There is aTemplefor Shree Venkitachalapathi, aChariotShapedTemplefor Shree Parthasarathy and quite a few otherTemplesin Guruvayoor.After going to most of these otherTemples, we had Darshan of a uniqueTemplehere, the existence of which is not known to many.At a distance of five kilometers from Guruvayur, on the Guruvayur – Trichur road , is a small place called Ariyannur, known years back as Hari Kanyakapuram. TheTemplehere is the only one of it’s kind…aTemplewith the Deity, Hari Kanyaka Bhagawathy….knownas Mohini to many, the Avatharam of Mahavishnu at the time of Churning theOceanofMilk.Happened to read just this info. in a magazine two days before we left for Kerala. This prompted me to fish out the Book “Kerala Vijayam” by Shree BharaNeedharan, in which he has given an account of thisTemple.It had rained that morning and the weather in the evening was great.At theTemplesteps we discovered that timings were from 5.30 a.m. to 9.30 a.m .and 5.30 p.m. to 7.30 p.m. We reached this place by 4.30 p.m and sat on the steps waiting for the Nambudhiri to come and open theTemple.TheTempleis said to be 2000 years old, evident from the weather-beaten walls inside, with perforations galore!! The base is of granite and the walls are of red stone. Taking snaps inside is ruled out. But the best sculptures are inside. TheTempleis supposed to have been built by the greatest carpenter/sculptor/architect, named Perunthachchan, whohas built quite a few temples and palaces. As you enter the first small hall, a lovely carved huge Bali Peetam welcomes you. We cross this and come into the next prakara. On either side of the short alley are halls supported by wooden and stone pillars. The wooden pillars have become smooth and gleaming with age . Then comes the Naalambalam or the small Mandapam infront of the Sanctum Sanctorun. The ceiling of

ഉത്സവത്തിന് തലയെടുപ്പോടെ എഴുന്നെള്ളിക്കുന്ന കൊമ്പൻമാരേക്കുറിച്ച് മാത്രമെ നമ്മൾ കേ‌ട്ടിട്ടുണ്ടാകു. എന്നാൾ ഉത്സവത്തിന് പിടിയാനകളെ എഴുന്നള്ളിക്കുന്ന ഒരു ക്ഷേത്രമുണ്ട് നമ്മുടെ കേരളത്തിൽ. ഗുരുവായൂരിനടുത്തുള്ള അരിയന്നൂരിലെ ഹരികന്യക ക്ഷേത്രമാണ് ആ ക്ഷേത്രം. ഇതുമാത്രമല്ല ഹരികന്യക ക്ഷേത്രത്തിന്റെ പ്രത്യേകതകൾ. മറ്റു ക്ഷേത്രങ്ങളിൽ എഴുന്നള്ളിക്കലിൽ വിളക്ക് പിടിക്കുന്നത് പുരുക്ഷന്മാരാണ് എന്നാൽ ഈ ക്ഷേത്രത്തിൽ സ്ത്രീകളാണ് വിളക്ക് പിടിക്കുന്നത്.
മഹാവിഷ്ണുവിന്റെ മോഹിനി രൂപമുള്ള ഹരികന്യക പ്രതിഷ്ഠയുള്ള കേരളത്തിലെ ഏക ക്ഷേത്രം കൂടിയാണ് ഗുരുവായൂരിൽ നിന്ന് 5 കിലോമീറ്റർ അകലെയായി അരിയന്നൂരിൽ സ്ഥിതി ചെയ്യുന്ന ഈ ക്ഷേത്രം. പറയി‌പ്പെറ്റ പന്തീരുകുലത്തിലെ ഉളിയന്നൂർ പെരുന്തച്ചൻ ഒറ്റ രാത്രികൊണ്ട് നിർമ്മിച്ചതാണ് ഈ ക്ഷേത്രം എന്നാണ് ഐതിഹ്യം. പണി തീ‌ർന്ന് കഴിഞ്ഞപ്പോൾ ക്ഷേത്രത്തിന് ഒരു കോട്ടമുള്ളതായി പെരുന്തച്ചൻ കണ്ടത്രേ . തുടർന്ന് അദ്ദേഹം ഉളിവ‌ച്ച് ക്ഷേത്രത്തിന്റെ കോട്ടം പരിഹരിച്ചെന്നാണ് കഥ. പെരുന്ത‌ച്ചന്റേതെന്ന് പറയ‌പ്പെടുന്ന ഉളി ക്ഷേത്രത്തിന്റെ ശ്രീ കോവിലിൽ കാണാം.
ഏകദേശം രണ്ടായിരം വർഷം പഴക്കമുള്ളതാണ് ഈ ക്ഷേത്രം എന്നാണ് പറയ‌പ്പെടുന്നത്. ഹരികന്യകപുരം എന്നായിരുന്നു പണ്ടുകാലത്ത് അരിയന്നൂർ അറിയ‌പ്പെട്ടിരുന്നത്. ഹരികന്യകാപുരം ലോപിച്ചാണ് അരിയന്നൂർ എന്ന സ്ഥല‌പ്പേരുണ്ടായത്. വിഷ്ണുവിനെ കന്യകയായി പ്രതിഷ്ഠി‌ച്ചിട്ടുള്ള ഈ ക്ഷേത്രത്തിന്റെ പ്രതിഷ്ഠയ്ക്ക് കിഴക്കോട്ടാണ് ദർശനം.
ദേവന്മാരും അസുരന്മാരും അമൃതിന് വേണ്ടി പാലാഴി കടഞ്ഞ കഥ പ്രശസ്തമാണല്ലോ. പാലാഴി കടഞ്ഞ് അമൃത് കിട്ടിയപ്പോൾ അസുരന്മാർ അത് തട്ടിയെടുത്ത് കൊണ്ടുപോയി. അസുരന്മാരിൽ നിന്ന് അമൃത് കൈക്കലക്കാനാണ് വിഷ്ണു ആദ്യം മോഹിനി അവതാരം സ്വീകരിച്ചത്. ശിവനിൽ നിന്ന് വരം നേടിയ ഭസ്മാസുരനെ നിഗ്രഹിക്കാനും വിഷ്ണു അവതരിച്ചത് മോഹിനിയുടെ രൂപത്തിൽ ആണ്. അയ്യപ്പൻ ജനി‌ച്ചത് മോഹിനിയുടെ പുത്രനായിട്ടാണ് എന്ന‌തിനാൽ കേരളത്തിൽ വിഷ്ണുവിന്റെ മോഹിനി അവതാരത്തിന് ഏറെ പ്രാധാന്യമുണ്ട്.
At a distance of 21 Kms from Thrissur Railway Station & 5 Kms from Guruvayoor Temple, Harikanyaka Temple is located in Ariyannur, between Thrissur and Guruvayoor.
