Lord Sakthivanesvara

Lord Sakthivanesvara

Lord Sakthivanesvara is a unique Form of Lord Shiva, in that the Shiva Lingam is hugged by his Consort, Devi Parvati; hence he is also known as SIVAKOZHUNDEESVARA and SAKTHI MUTHAM.

It is believed that when one prays to Lord Sakthivanesvara with faith, one would be blessed with the life partner of one's choice.

A Temple dedicated to Lord Sakthivanesvara is located in a small village called Thirusakthimutram, near another small (but relatively better-known) village, Patteeswaram. The nearest urban centre, about seven kilometres (four-and-a-half miles) away, is Kumbakonam in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.
