There is no equal to the devotion that Veerapandiya Kattapomman had on Lord Muruga.
Murugan has done some miracles through Kattapomman to recognize the appreciation of his devotee.
Kattapomman used to eat his lunch daily after completing pooja and nivethanam to Lord Muruga in Thiruchendur.
Is the fort of Kattapomman in Panchalang Kurichi. Thiruchendur Murugan temple is so far away from here.
To let Murugan know that Nivethanam has happened in the temple.........
He built stone halls from Tiruchendur to Panchalangkurichi. He installed bronze beads inside the hall.
Stopped the servants in every hall.
It is a habit to start ringing the Thiruchendur temple tower bell as soon as the top time pooja is done in Thiruchendur.
Following this, the next hall will hear the bells.
For this, Kattabomman had a Mani Mandapam in many places including Arumuganeri, Aathur, Ottapidaram, Panchalangkurichi.
The servant in the hall will immediately unleash the wrist of the hall and raise the bells.
In this way, the bell will ring in every hall and at the end the bell will ring in the Panchalangkurichi Mandapam
(Some of these halls can still be seen in this way) )
Moreover, every Monday early morning horsemen will bring leaf vibhuti prasad from Thiruchendur Murugan temple to Kattapomman and give it to Kattapomman.
Kattabomman will start his daily tasks only after getting Vibhuti in his hands.
One bell would have been hung on the seventh stage of the Thiruchendur Murugan temple tower.
This was set up by Kattapomman. This has been without sounding for years.
By the bell roaring from this tower, they will make the next bell ring and indicate that Murugan has become a relief.
This bell which was not working was re-ringed during the temple consecration. Now this bell is ringing in the peak puja.
And because of his devotion to Lord Muruga, Kattapomman also had the habit of sending thousands of fortresses to Nellai to donate food from his paddy barns to Thiruchendur Murugan temple.
Citizens also brought the process of carrying paddy from their fields as saffron and giving it to the temple.
Once upon a time, Kattabomman wanted to gift a gold necklace to his wife and asked the golden killer to prepare it.
Murugan who appeared in his dream that night, you could have given me that necklace? He said it.
As soon as the necklace was ready, he took it and wore it to Murugan in Thiruchendur temple.
Once again, Masi festival was going on in Thiruchendur.
The chariot is ready for the chariot ride. Kattapomman should come and give him the cord. I don't know why I couldn't come
Well, we can pull the chariot, devotees dragged the chariot. The chariot just rolled a little distance. It has stopped moving anymore.
The wheel of the chariot is standing in one place. The car did not move even after many devotees tried.
Meanwhile, Kattapomman was brought a message and he also arrived here.
Kattabomman caught about the chariot. Immediately the chariot moved. Murugan has appreciated his devotion through Kattapomman with many miracles like this.
There is a beautiful village called Muthalangkurichi on the bank of Tamirabarani river.
A poet named Kavirayar Kandasamy Pulavar lived here.
He is also a very intense devotee of Lord Muruga. He has no vision in both eyes.
Lord Muruga will come in person to listen to his song! So much love for his song.
One day the poet was singing a poet. I had the habit of throwing the victory.
While chewing the victory of the poet, the saliva fell on the parivattam of Lord Muruga.
It was seen in the Moolavar Parivattam in Moolasthanam, Thiruchendur.
Butter was nervous when he saw this. He was heartbroken without knowing how this happened.
Murugan appeared in the dream of Butter that night and said, ' Oh my god, the one who has deep devotion on me is the poet of Muthalangkurichi.
He is also blind. I have decided to give him a visit.
Every last Friday of every month, He walks to see me.
Call him and take a flower from the garland that is worn for me and accept it in his eye!
Then he can see in that eye. Lord Muruga will ask you when will he open the other eye.
Tell him to go to Panchalangkurichi. There my devotee Kattabomman said that he will open another eye for him and went away.
The poet who came to Thiruchendur next Friday took bath in the sea. Butter found him and brought him to Murugan temple.
As per the order of Lord Muruga, he took a flower and put it in the eyes of the poet.
Kavirayar got a glimpse in his eyes. To get another eye's sight, you go to Panchalang. This is the order of Lord Muruga, Butter said.
According to this, the poet went to Panchalangkurichi. Kattabomman was amazed after knowing the details from the poet.
Did Murugan send me to open the other eye? He was amazed to hear that.
Immediately he arranged pooja at Jakkammal temple. Then he took the poet in one hand and entered the temple with a sword in the other hand.
Kavirayar was shocked to see the condition of Kattapomman with Uruvi sword.
What is this? Are you coming into the temple with a formed sword? He thought and heard that. There should be no lack of anger for the poet!, Similarly, he also asked.
The poet is worried that he is destroying the sanctity of the temple. But, Kattabomman did not speak anything, he took a flower from the garland that was worn to Jakkamma Devi and put it in the other eye of the poet.
What a surprise! That eye also got sight in the other eye!
Though the poet was happy, he was again angry because of Kattapomman's disorder. ' You are an arrogant man. That is why he said that even in the temple of the Goddess, you are standing with the sword formed in the power of power.
The person who said that I don't want this look that I got because of you who insults the goddess, tried to pluck the sword of Kattapomman and pierce it in his eye.
Kattapomman stopped the poet's hand. Dear poet, I did not hold the sword with arrogance. If I could not see you as per the order of Lord Muruga, I was with the sword that was created to stab me with this sword and kill me, he said calmly.
The poet just got stunned. ′′ What's up? Did you want to kill your own life! You are the best devotee of Lord Muruga! I'm sorry kattapomma! He said with tears in his eyes, ′′ Forgive me
At that time, Lord Muruga's Azeri was heard. Dear poet, if I want to give you a vision, I have performed this play to make you realize that the Pattar and Kattapomman who gave a vision in Muthalangkurichi were born to do my duties.
Kavirayar and Kattapomman became close friends after this incident.
When Kattapomman came to Muthalangkurichi to see the poet, the place where he parked the horse on the banks of the Tamirabarani river is still called * Veerapandiyan Kasam
Eesan, who was a Mukhilvannanathar in the temple there till then, was also known as Veerapandeeshwar.
Now Veerapandiya Kasam has become small!
The festival worships created by Kattapomman are being conducted in Thiruchendur temple by his heirs even today.
