India/Tamil Nadu /Kerala /Guruvayur

Guruvayurappan is located 29 kms north west to the Thrissur , Kerala. Edit

Detail InformationEdit

The Guruvayur/Guruvayoor Sree Krishna Temple is one of the most important and sacred pilgrim centres of Kerala. The presiding deity is MahaVishnu, in standing posture with four hands carrying Sankhu (conch), Sudarshana chakram (a serrated disk), lotus and mace. He is worshipped as Balakrishna, the full avatar (Purnaavatara) of Mahavishnu. The idol is made of a rare stone known as Patala Anjana. The glory of Guruvayur was revealed by sage Dattatreya to King Janamejaya, the son of Parikshit. According to the sage, the image of Guruvayur was originally worshipped by Narayana.

HistoryEdit

The Guruvayur Temple is constructed B.C 3000 (Around 5000 years oldest Temple) According to legends, the deity worshipped here is more than 5000 years old. But there are no historical records to establish it. In the 14th century, “Kokasandesam” (a Tamil literary work), references to a place called Kuruvayur are made. As early as the 16th century (fifty years after Narayaniyam was composed) many references to Kuruvayur are seen. In ancient Dravidian languages, “kuruvai” means “sea”, hence the village on the Malabar Coast may be called Kuruvayur. The earliest temple records date back to the 17th century.
