Our dreams come true, My wife Jayashree’s grandfather worshipped Lord Muruga.When her grand father shifted the family from Cochin to Kovai they continued  worshipping Lord Muruga and were doing Shasti Pooja every month, but they had to leave behind the Idol of Lord Muruga. When I was in Chennai I used to go to vadapalani  murugan temple daily and I became the devotee of lord muruga. From my wife Jaya I learnt kandarshasty kavajam, being a bakta of lord Iyyappa from 1972 on words I used to go sabarimala every year till 2012. When the astamangala prasna in Janardhana temple, Fort Cochin, insisted that two shrines of Lord Iyyappa and Lord Muruga should be built in the Janardhana Temple Compound, myself and my wife decided to take up the temple project. By the grace of Lord Iyyappa and Lord Muruga,We made the prathistta for  Lord Iyyappa and Lord Muruga on 13/2/2013 with our guru sri sri vamanasrama swamiji   and our dreams come true,
