Tiruchuli

Tiruchuli

Tiruchuli is a village about 15 kilometers to the east of Aruppukkottai, Tamil Nadu, India and is considered to be a very holy place and is the birth place of Sri Ramana Maharishi who is considered to be the most revered saint in the recent years. The place also has a rich Saivite temple which is one of the oldest ones in South India and the god in this temple is even worshipped by most of the popular 63 Saivites in Tamil Nadu. This place is admired by persons who are pious, religious and also who would love seclusion for meditation and chants in the name of god. There is also a Ramana ashram on the banks of the river.

The NGO, ODAM, operates out of Tiruchuli and provides women self help groups, literacy classes and has established a research biodiesel center 7km outside of town.
