The founding of Madurai-3(Thiruvilayadal-3)

The founding of Madurai-3(Thiruvilayadal-3)






Dhanajayan ,a merchant living in Manavoor,the city of Kulasekara Pandian,one day worshipped Lord Chockalingam in Kadambavanam(Madurai).
As he was worshipping there.He spoke of his vision to the Pandian,who was brooding over it.That night Lord Somasundarar appeared in his dream as a siddha and advied him to convert the forest into a city .The king gathered experts to construct a marvelous temple.While he performed the shanthi ceremony,Lord Somasundarar allowed the Manna from the crescent moon to mingle with ganga water in his crest to flow on.Because it was sweet (madhuram)the place acquired the name Madurai.Before he died ,Kulasekara Pandian crowned his son,Malayathuvasa Pandian.
