బాలశాస్త గురించి మీకు తెలుసా? ఆయన బాలుడి రూపంలో పూజలు ఎందుకు అందుకుంటాడో తెలుసా?? CHAMIRAJU NEWS
#Kulathupuzha #ayyppa #BalaSasthaTemple #SABARIMALA #AYYAPPA
అయ్యప్ప ఆలయాల్లో శబరిమల తరువాత అంతటి విశిష్టత, పురాణ వైశిష్ట్యం ఉన్న ఆలయం కుళత్తుపుళ. ఇక్కడ అయ్యప్ప బాలమణి కంఠుడిగా భక్తులనుంచి పూజలు అందుకుంటున్నాడు. సాధారణంగా అయ్యప్ప భక్తులు ఈ మకరదీప దర్శనానంతరం ఇక్కడి బాలమణకంఠుడిని దర్శించి తరిస్తారు. కల్లడ నదికి ఉపనది అయిన కులత్తుపుళ నదిగట్టున ఈ ఆలయం వెలిసింది.
కుళత్తుపుళ బాలమణికంఠుడికి సంబంధించి ఒక పురాణగాధ ఉంది. పూర్వం ఒక బ్రాహ్మణుడు శిష్యులతోపాటుగా రామేశ్వరం నుండి ప్రయాణం చేస్తూ కుళత్తుపుళకు వస్తాడు. ఈ ప్రాంతంలో వంట చేసేందుకు అతని శిష్యులు పొయ్యి ఏర్పాటు చేసే క్రమంలో మూడు రాళ్ల కోసం వెతుకుతారు. అప్పుడు అక్కడ ఒక రాయి వారికి కనిపిస్తుంది. మరో రెండు రాళ్లు తెచ్చి దానిపక్కన పెట్టగా.. మొదటి రాయి కొంచెం పెద్దగా మారింది. ఇలా రెండుమూడు సార్లు జరిగిన తరువాత.. ఒక శిష్యుడు కోపంతో.. రాయి ఎత్తి.. మొదటి రాయిపై వేస్తాడు. దాంతో మొదటి రాయినుంచి రక్తం స్రవిస్తుంది. ఈ ఘటనతో భయపడ్డ భక్తులు వవిషయాన్ని గరువుగారికి చెప్పారు. ఆయన రామేశ్వరం నుంచి తెచ్చిన పవిత్ర జలాలతో రాయికి అభిషేకం చేస్తాడు. వెంటనే రక్తం స్రవించడం ఆగిపోతుంది. విషయాన్ని పందళరాజుకు తెలిపరచ్చడంతో.. ఆయన ఆ ప్రాంతానికి వస్తాడు. ఆయనకు అక్కడ అయ్యప్ప స్వామి బాలమణికంఠుగా దర్శనం ఇవ్వడంతో.. అక్కడే అయ్యప్పకు ఆలయాన్ని నిర్మిస్తారు. అదే కుళత్తుపుళ నదీతీరంలో వెలసిన అయ్యప్ప మణికంఠుడుగా తన బాల్యావస్థను చూపుతూ బాల శాస్తగా దర్శనమిస్తున్నాడు. శాస్త హరిహర పుత్రుడు. ఆలయం నెలకొన్న ప్రాంతం ప్రకృతి రమణీతకకు అద్దం పడుతున్నది. దట్టమైన అడవులు, గలగలా ప్రవహించే వాగులు మనసుకు ఆహ్లాదం కలల్పిస్తాయి. చర్మంపై మొటిమలు తొలిగిపోవడానిఅకి భక్తులు కొలనులోని చేపలకు ‘మీనూట్టు వళిపాడు’ అర్పిస్తారు.
కుళత్తుపుళ ఆలయంలో బాలమణికంఠుడితోపాటు.. శ్రీమహావిష్ణుపు, శివుడు, వినాయకుడు, యక్షుడు పూలు అందుకుంటారు. ప్రతి అయ్యప్ప భక్తులు ఒక్కసారి అయినా తప్పనిసరిగా చూడాల్సిన ఆలయాల్లో ఇదీ ఒకటి.

Top 5 - AYYAPPAN TEMPLES IN INDIA
Ayyappan is the Hindu god of growth, particularly popular in Kerala. He is a synthetic deity, the son of Shiva and Mohini – the female avatar of Vishnu. Ayyappan is also referred to as Ayyappa, Sastavu, Hariharaputra, Manikanta, Shasta or Dharma Shasta.
The iconography of Ayyappan depicts him as a handsome celibate god doing yoga and as an epitome of Dharma, who wears a bell around his neck. In the Hindu pantheon, his legends are relatively recent but diverse. For some, he is also an incarnation of the Buddha. He is honored by some Muslims in Kerala, with legends wherein Ayyappan defeats and gains worship of the Muslim brigand Vavar. In the Hindu tradition popular in the Western Ghats of India, he was born with the powers of Shiva and Vishnu to confront and defeat the shape shifting evil Buffalo demoness Mahishasuri. He was raised by a childless royal couple, and grows up as a warrior yogi champion of ethical and dharmic living. In the South Indian version, Ayyappan images show him as riding a tiger, but in some places such as Sri Lanka he is shown as riding a white elephant.
