The Tanjore Sivan Temple popular for granting financial growth

Every temple in Tamil Nadu has its own uniqueness. In that sense, the Tirucherai Senneriyappar Shiva Temple located in the Tanjore district is the temple that offers salvation to one’s economic struggle, especially, the debt problem.

Tanjore district is located 15 km southeast of Kumbakonam. This Shiva temple is one of the south coast sites where songs were sung by the great saint-poets Thirugnanasambandar and Thirunavukkarasar.

The name Senneriyappar is given to the Lord as it is the place where the man is blessed with the pearl of wisdom. The temple is also revered as the abode of Rinavimochanar, the liberator of man from debt problems. Rinavimochanar is the primary deity in the temple.

And in a unique way that no other Shiva temple has, the Bairavar here is on display with a bell on his left upper arm. The three deities Siva Durga, Vaishnavi Durga and Vishnu Durga are also resident in this Holy place. Special pujas are performed for the deity on special days like Adippuram, Navratri, Kandharsashti and Pradosham. This temple is home to innumerable special features.
