About vishnumaya The Kanadi Kuttichathan Kavu is the most holy and ancient Vishnu Maya Temple in the state of Kerala providing relief to sorrows and showering blessings and prosperity to all the devotees irrespective of caste, creed or religion. This temple having many epics and with rare historical importance is situated 20 km South-West of Thrissur in Peringottukkara, a land made sacred by the foot prints of many great sages. The presence of Brahmasree Vishnubharatheeya Swami, the sage-like Spiritual Guru and the Madathipathi of Kanadi Kavu, who had the fortune to have a holy glimpse of the sacred effulgence of Kuttichathan Swami through a strict life style of religious discipline fills the devotees with a desire to have a strong spiritual life. The all merciful and sympathetic Swamiji observes the temple rites strictly, and leads his life as a ritualistic. Thousands of devotees visit this temple every day. After listening to the orders of Vishnumaya, the son of Mahadeva (Chathan - Balasasthavu), they offer the remedial measures to overcome their personal sorrows as per the instructions of the Madathipathi and return home with a tranquil mind.
- 3. Vishnumaya and lord of thriprayar Devotees of the Lord at Thriprayar believe that Hanuman Swami and Chathan Swami stand as guards for Sree Rama Swami on either side of the sanctum sanctorum, though there are no idols consecrated for them.When the procession of the Lord of Thriprayar is taken to the Aarattupuzha Pooram accompanied by a retinue and the traditional orchestra, it stops at Kanadi Kavu for the Traditional ‘Para’. There will be no poojaas offered at Kanadi Kavu from the time of the ‘Para’ till the Lord of Thriprayar returns to his temple the next day. The belief is that Chathan Swami will be accompanying the Lord of Thriprayar on his journey.
