Faith
Every creation in this world is a miracle.. I've always wondered if parikarams are worth it. So why this post now? Because I just spoke to my cousin sister today and remembered this incident which happened 3 years ago !!
There is a place near Kanchipuram..a small Narayana temple. It's serving as a hope for several childless mothers. My cousin happened to be one. She was childless for 5 years. They heard about this news and came to our house as we were in Kanchipuram. The custom was, the wife had to follow some vratham in the temple. They had some whole grains roasted and would make a "mootai", dip it in water and tie it around her womb. She has to spend the night there saying some mantrams. If the next day morning the grain has sprouted, it means she is eligible to get a child and would conceive within a year. It worked out for my cousin..she has a cute girl now !! Technically, roasted grain can't sprout...atleast that is a miracle. Is it some chemical reaction?? Frankly, I never beleived this till she conceived. God only knows :-)

Yes Jeevan.. there is a mango tree which is in the Ekaambareswarar temple for hundreds of years. It's famous because a single tree bears 4 different kinds of mangoes. Its basically "grafting" which we study now..but how was it done hundreds of years back is really surprising. Take the time to visit the temples in Kanchipuram. They are really worth !!
