Shiny New Avudaiyar

Aumloha! I hope this Tuesday has been better than all previous Tuesdays! It sure has been an incredible Tuesday for the 4600kg, 10,141.26lb bronze avudaiyar which has been in Iraivan Temple's sanctum for several years after being shipped here from India. It became discolored from the salty air during its ocean voyage. After trying several different methods for cleaning it, we've landed on one that works quite well. If you haven't seen already, we've attached some links for you to learn more about this amazing artifact!

    Aumloha! Sincere mahalos for the many updates on Iraivan on TAKA – from shiny new Avudaiyar to magical waterways (from sky high views) to inner plane summoning bells! Ever the inspiration. Aum Sivaya.
