INTRO

Welcome to our navarathri golu 2022
This year we have set our theme as Bhakthi movement in South India to highlight the great acharyas and gurus who played an important role in spreading the concept of Bhakthi in South India.
We have associated each of the saints with a famous temple and also highlighted one of their important works.
Dividing the bhakti movement into two branches we have kept Vaikuntam to represent vaishnavites and Kailayam to represent Shivites.
Below, we can also see the union of both in Meenakshi kalyanam and the 3 Devis.

Here, we’ve displayed The guruvayoor appan Temple to represent Bhakti movement in Kerala

Poonthanam Namboodri was an important person in this and most of his works were on Guruvayoorappan..
His important work was jnanana

Next we can see Trichy ranganathar temple to represent the Bhakthi movement in Tamil Nadu..Here the main guru involved was Ramanujar and his most famous work was Sri Bhasayam.
