  • 5/5 Vaidehi M. 2 years ago on Google
    Adhi Kesavaperumal otherwise known as SriRamanujar temple is located at Sriperumbudur, kanchipuram district, Tamilnadu, South India. Sri Adikesava perumal and Yathirajavalli Thayar are the main deities here. Sri Ramanujar also has the equal importance. It is his birth place who bought out the value of the Manthra On Namo Narayana to the common people. Sri Ramanujacharya is the great philosopher, theologist and the important exponent of Visishtatvaidham. The temple is well maintained with sanctity. When you enter the temple itself one can feel the power of divinity. Chithirai Bramhotsavam , Masi pooram and Panguni Uthiram are the prominent festivals of the temple. Choffersithirai Thiruvadhirai is birth star of Sri Ramanujacharya, on this day Sri vaishnavites gather here in mass to anoint Sriramanujas idol with cow's milk (pal abhishekam). It is believed that if this offering is done people who do get married will get married soon. There is an Anjaneyar temple in the entrance of the street, which is also a powerful temple. On the whole it is one of the must visit Divyadesam of Srivaishnavites. Not only that the prasadam sold here especially puliyodharai and adhirasam holds exclusive taste and delicious. Of course a mouthwatering one. Frequent buses are there from Koyambedu and Saidapet. So don't delay to visit the temple and get the blessings of Dr I Ramanujacharya..

  • 3/5 Ramalingam M. 8 months ago on Google • 359 reviews
    Adi Kesava Temple (also called Ramanujar Temple) is dedicated to Hindu god Vishnu located in Sriperumbudur, Kanchipuram district, in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu. Constructed in the Dravidian style of architecture, Vishnu, who is worshipped as Adi Kesava, and his consort Lakshmi as Ethiraja Nadhavalli. The temple is believed to be the birthplace of Ramanuja, the exponent of Vishishtadvaita philosophy. The temple has a rectangular plan surrounded by 10 ft (3.0 m) high walls, pierced by a seven-tier gopuram, the gateway tower. The presiding deity is housed in the sanctum and is an image made of granite seen in standing posture. The shrine of Garuda facing Adi Kesava, the vahana of Vishnu, is located axial to the central shrine. The central shrine is approached through a worship hall and a narrow Ardha mandapam. The flag post is located behind the shrine of Garuda, axial to the central shrine and the gateway tower. There are images of Alvars in the worship hall on both sides and the shrine of Yathiraja Nadhavalli is located in the second precinct. This is one of the temples where Lakshmi takes the name of a devotee. The gold plated hall in front of the shrine of Ramanuja was endowed by the Maharaja of Mysore. There are no separate Sorgavasal, the sacred entrance way opened during the Vaikunta Ekadasi festival. There is a Bhoodakal hall where the festive images of the presiding deity and is consort are housed during the festival

    Very very peaceful, well maintained temple request management to kindly keep the premises ( inside and outside ) clean as found lot of glass pieces broken bangle pieces all over the premises and request to inform the volunteers to treat devotees with respect while prasadam is served. Suggest management to kindly keep a notice board the way they want the devotees to stand while dharshan and taking prasadam. Thanking you in advance for considering the above suggestions for betterment of both the parties and devotees to follow and keep the premises clean and tidy.

    Birth place of Sri Ramanujar Acharyan. Great place to visit, and its excellence of architecture mesmerises you. You will be greeted with a lovable elephant of the temple at the entrance. Huge temple with Ramanujar Sannadhi, Lord Adhikesavar Perumal Sannadhi, Ethirajnadavalli thayar Sannadhi. Outside the temple, Sri Ramanujar mandapam where Sriramanujar was born. Parking is available on the outside, i.e., side of the road. Generally, on festival days and weekends, there will be rush, so plan accordingly. Must visit with Family.

  • 4/5 Ram d. 1 year ago on Google
    A few days back was Ramanuja’s Birthday. Well, when my mom told me that, my first thought was about The Mathematical Genius Srinivasa Ramanujam, errr… mistaken, she was telling me about Saint Ramanuja, one of the most famous Vaishnavaite Saints. It was near Chennai, at Sriperumpudur to be precise, where Saint Ramanuja was born. So, his birthday must be of great specialty there. So, I headed to this very location. WHERE WAS SAINT RAMANUJA BORN? About a 1000 years back, 980 to be precise, Saint Ramanuja was born here (Bingala Year, Chithirai Month, Thirivadhirai Star – That’s the date according to the Tamil Calender). He is also called Bashyakarar, Udaiyavar, Ilayazhwar, Ethirajar, Em Perumanar etc. Hence this temple is also called Udaiyavar Koil. HOW TO REACH SRIPERUMBUDUR RAMANUJAR TEMPLE On Google Maps: Ramanujar Temple, Vedanta Desikan Temple. Located very near to the Sriperumbudur Bus Stand From Tambaram: 24 km via Manimangalam. Regular Bus services available. From Tiruvallur: 21 km From Kanchipuram: 35 km

    This temple is part of 108 Divya Desams. I visited this temple of Adhikeshava perumal and shri ramanujar on first of Margazhi month. For more than 2 decades I've been visiting this temple. The atmosphere and place spiritual and calming. It's located close to chennai around 30 minutes drive from my home.

    A great temple and a must visit place for those living in and around Chennai. This temple built by the Mysore Maharaja is an architecture lover's delight. The huge pillars with Yali are imposing and the precincts of the temple have drawings of the deities of the Divya Desams. One can get a good darshan of the deities as we are allowed to go up close unlike some other temples. The alamkaram is too good and one gets a feeling of satisfaction after offering prayers here.

    Truly mesmerized by the beauty of this temple. From outside it looks like a small temple, but temple from inside is as beautiful as it looks from outside. The inside of the temple is beyond our imagination. The depictions on the wall are very beautiful. You don't feel like coming outside of the temple once you enter as you get lost in the nice and calm environment.
