1. Best time to visit: This is not a holiday spot. It is the Jeeva Samadhi of a great saint. I am surprised by the word BEST TIME

2. Nerur is a tiny village and you need to stay in Karur. Karur has a lot of good hotels.

3. You need to go to karur .chennai - mangalore express which starts from chennai egmore..get down at karur railway station. From karur you can take a cab or go by local town bus to nerur. The buses go from Karur central bus stand

4. You can do archanai over there and since Dhanur masam is very near and you can ask them to do the morning pooja

River Kaveri flows very near..its about 1 furlong from there..

1. For me all days are good and all times are good to visit a temple and that too the jeeva samadhi of a great saint. Thursdays are always special.

2. I just googled and found this: Hotels in Karur,Rooms in Karur,Hotel Hemala,Karur,Restaurants in Karur - Seems to be good..

3. Please check irctc

4. No need of any pre booking. The mama who does pooja there is a telugu brahmin and he knows tamizh also. You can go there and do any pooja or archanai you want

The jeeva samadhi of sri sadasiva brahmendra is in the temple in nerur. the temple is known as sri kasi viswanathar temple...KINDLY DO NOT GO TO THE MUTT there..... the saiva mutt and sadasiva brahmendra have no connection at all..

Dear Sowmi,

Hotel Valluvar is one good hotel at Karur. It is just opposite to Karur Bus Stand and Telephone Number is 04324234411. The temple is in Nerur village and you may have to take a Car or Auto to reach the place. 10 KM distance - may take 30 minutes because of the road conditions. There are also some local buses plying in this route.

In Nerur, you can also visit Shri Angalamman Temple which was recently renovated and Kumba Abhishekam was done some three years back. Incidentally, Shri Angalamman temple is our Kula Deivam. (Are there members in this forum who are having Shri Angalamman as Kula Deivan ?)

By taking night train from Chennai you can reach Karur next day morning. Visiting the above two temples may take 3-4 hours and you can catch evening train back. There are some other places - Than Thondri Malai etc - in and around Karur.

Wish you a happy journey.

There is a temple known as Siruvachur Mathura Kali Amman Temple in Siruvachur near Tiruchy
on the way to Perambalur in National Highways towards Madras. It is a very old temple located
at the foots of the Hill Mathura and it is generally open only on Mondays and Fridays. This temple
is the Kuladeivam of Mahaperiyaval. Sri Adi Shankarar while he was going through this hill,
stopped for want of quenching his thirst and sat underneath a tree. While he was just meditating,
the Goddess appeared before him and disappeared after quenching his thirst. Sri Adi Shankarar
established this temple and also the history of the temple states that Sri Sadasiva Brahmendrar
established the Srichakra in this temple. This temple was constructed by the Chola King Dharma
Varman. He visited the Deity and when he was blessed with a child, he constructed the temple
to the Goddess as a reciprocal one. Some puranas also quote stating that Lord Shiva deputed
Goddess Parvathi to this temple to protect the people of this area from the evil deeds of demon
Charugan, who was troubling everyone in the village. Goddess Parvathi in the form of Mathura Kali
visited this temple and the Deity Chelliamman who was earlier there moved over to the hill after
the evil doer was killed.

Goddess Mathura Kali is a powerful deity and a visit once will attract every one.

பகவான் ரமணர் தமிழில் மொழி பெயர்த்த சதாசிவ ப்ரம்மேந்தரின் பாடல் இதோ.

'எல்லா உலகுந் துரும்பா யினமறைக
ளெல்லாமே கைக்கு ளிருந்தாலும் - பொல்லாப்
புகழ்ச்சியாம் வேசிவசம் புக்கா ரடிமை
யகலவிட லம்மா வரிது'.
Even though a man may look on the world as a wisp of straw
and hold all sacred lore in his hand, nevertheless it will be hard
for him to escape from thraldom if he has yielded to that vile
harlot, flattery. [Sadhaka Avasta by Sri Sadasiva Brahmendra.]
