Nurani is a village in Palakkad district of Kerala state in India populated mainly by Tamil Brahmins (Iyers). This village is famous for its culture and religious fervour. About five centuries ago, Brahmins – mostly scholars, pandits, vaidikas, priests and cooks – from Thiruvannamalai in North Arcot district and other parts of Tamil Nadu came to Nurani in search of new pastures and established their dwelling in the present Agraharam (village). They brought in their Tamil culture and over years, became part and parcel of Palakkad population and their identity got merged in the new culture. Their Tamil accent and cultural milieu, in the present generation of people, can be seen distinctly different from that of the people of Tamil Nadu. * These Brahmins were held in high esteem for their expertise in Sastras, Puranas and Vedas. Many ventured on commerce, trade and agriculture and prospered.They became property owners and great businessmen. There is also a saying that Noorunnies (hundreds of Namboodhiri boys) were brought up in the mana (house of a Namboodhiri) nearby and hence the village got the name Nurani (a derivation from Noorunni). * The Brahmins engaged the Adhivasis, who were inhabitants of a nearby colony, for cultivation. Once when the Adhivasis were working to clear bushes in a hillock, they heard the sound of bells and experienced a fragrance and strange phenomena. On hearing this, the Brahmins ordered further excavation and, to their astonishment, found three cylindrical Vigrahas, a small granite Elephant another flat vigraha buried under the hillock. On conducting Ashtamangalya Deva Prasna (traditional practice followed in Kerala temples) by eminent Astrologer and Pandits, it was found that the cylindrical Vigrahas are of Hariharaputhra (Ayyappa), Poorna and Pushkala (the two consorts of Hariharaputhra.) The flat idol was identified as Bhagavathy (Malikapurathamma). The Deva prasna also threw light on the origin of these idols. There was a Nampoodhiripad who used to regularly visit Aryankavu for darsan of Lord Ayyappa. Later in his life owing to old age, he could not visit Aryankavu which saddened him . As per the advice of Ayyappa (who came in his dream), he built a temple in his courtyard, installed the above idols seated on the elephant, worshipped them and got solace. After the death of this Namboodhiripad, when war broke out, his family abandoned their residence and fled the place for fear of an attack. In course of time the place was covered by hillock and bamboo bushes and the temple got buried under it. * The final result of the Dev Prasna was that the idols be installed in a suitable temple and daily poojas be conducted as prescribed by Agama Sashtras for the prosperity of villagers. * On hearing this, the Brahmins rejoiced and built the temple at the North Western end, facing the entrance of the village and installed the three cylindrical Vigrahas with the granite elephant. Later, for the prosperity and well being o... |
