FOR THE PAST 50 YEARS MY MOTHER-IN-LAW IS KEEPING GOLU. SHE IS OUR INSPIRATION. EVERY YEAR WE DECIDE ON A THEME AND MAKE ARRANGEMENTS CONTRIBUTING TO THE THEME. THIS YEAR WE HAVE THEME BY NAME "LINGA GOLU". WE HAVE DISPLAYED A SMALL SHIVA TEMPLE SURROUNDED BY STORY TELLING PHOTOS OF 63 NAYANMARS, AND ALSO WITH 18 SIDDHARS. FOR EACH SIDDHAR WE HAVE KEPT THEIR PROPERTY DEPICTING THEIR STORY; EXAMPLE: FOR PAMBATTI SIDDHAR-SURROUNDED BY SNAKES; FOR KAMALAMUNI SIDDHAR, PROPERTY IN GOLD COLOUR, A CLOSED WELL SURROUNDED BY KALI, VARAHI, KARUPPANNAN AND PECHIAMMAN ETC.
