Sri Abirami Amman Temple Thirukadaiyur





LOCATION OF THE TEMPLE: Sri Amirtha kadesvarar temple is located in Thirukadiyur which is near Mayiladuthurai in Nagappatinam district in the state of Tamilnadu, India. It is around twenty kilometers from Mayiladuthurai. It is situated in the chidambaram- Nagappatinam East Coast Road.

HISTORY OF THE TEMPLE: There are a few temples that are well known for the Lord and his Consort and Tirukkadaiyur is one among them.


The Amritaghateswarar - Abirami Temple of Tirukkadaiyur is associated with the legends of Markandeya and Abirami patter. When devas and Asuras churned parkadal to get Amirtham , they forgot to Worship Lord Ganesa (Sri vinayagayar), Lord Ganesa stole the pot of Amirtham and kept at Thirukadiyur, it is believed that the Sivalingam in this temple is made of Amirtha Kudam . Since the pot of Amirtham was hidden here, the lord Ganesa is called "Kailavarna pilliyar". 




Markandeya, son of sage Mrikanduwas predicted to live for only 16 years. As advised by his father, Markandeya worshipped Amritaghateswarar in Tirukkadaiyur, bringing the water from Ganges through an underground passage to the temple. On the destined day, Yama appeared with his noose, kala paasa . Markandeya sought refuge in the Lord and embraced the Siva Lingam. The Lord warned Yama not to touch Markandeya as he was under his protection. Yama did not listen and threw the noose that bound Markandeya and the Lingam together. Angered by this act of rashness, the Lord kicked him with the left leg and held him under his left foot, making him inactive. Markandeya was blessed with Ever sixteen . Abirami patter has sung 100 hymns about Goddess Abirami. This is called Abirami Anthathi. The last word of previous song will be the first word of the next song. It is known as Andhathi in Tamil poetric literature.


DIVINESS OF THE TEMPLE:Thirugana sambandar, Navukarasar and Sundarar have sung devotional songs, hymns about this temple, this temple faces West Side. It is believed that Sri Abirami Devi was evolved here from the meditation power of Sri Mahavishnu. Among sixty-three Nayanmars, Kungilinayanar and Karinayanar performed siva thondu and attained Moksha (mukthi) here. Images in the temple depict the Lord with a raised forefinger, warning Yama . The mark of the kala paasa is visible on the Lingam. With Yama being rendered inactive, there were no deaths on earth. 




As nature should have its way, the Kala-samhara-moorthi, the other name by which Amritaghateswarar is known - Lord Siva brought God Yama to life. It is here that the significance of 'kicking with the left leg' is spoken about.Had he desired to quell Yama forever, He would have held him under his right leg - as in the case of Muyalaka . The very fact that he used his left leg points to the fact that he intended it as a punishment for an act of rashness and not otherwise. 

AUSPICIOUS TIMES: The worship services are offered six times a day in the temple. Almost every day dawns with one celebration or other, as hundreds of pilgrims throng the temple to celebrate their 60th or 80th birthdays.celebration of 60th and 80th birth days (birth star) called as Sashti Aptha poorthi and Sathabishekam respectively is held very auspicious by the people as their longevity will increase.

The annual 'Brahmotsavam' is celebrated in the month of Chithirai (April-May); the 'Shankhabishekam' celebrated in the month of Kartikai (November-December) is also of great importance here. Few other festivals being celebrated over here include Navaratri and 'Aadi Pooram' . POOJAS TO BE PERFORMED FOR: It is believed that Lord Siva dimnished Kalan (Yaman) in Thirukadiyur. So Lord Siva in Thirukadiyur is called Mritunga jaya murthi . 

Devotees completing 59 years and starting sixty have to perform Ukira ratha Santhi ; completing sixty years and starting sixties have to perform Sashtiyapatha purthi . Completing sixty-nine years and starting seventy have to perform Beema ratha santhi. Starting eighty has to perform Sathabishekham and Ayusha homam. According to astrology devotees can perform Mrutinji jaya homam.

Balanced Diet



Tips For Balanced Diet 

You must be aware of your body’s vitamin and mineral requirements as well as the nutritional values of the food choices you make prior to selecting a daily food menu. To ensure that you are following a balanced diet, make sure that:
  1. Your food choices originate from the five main food groups viz. fruits, vegetables, cereals and pulses, dairy, poultry, fish and meat products.
  2. Since our body requires over 40 nutrients including vitamins, minerals, water, protein, carbohydrates and fats; it is important that we eat a variety of foods especially within vegetables and across the food groups. For example while vegetables like capsicum provide us with Vitamin C, spinach is rich in iron; both foods from the same food group but catering to different nutritional needs.
  3. Your diet ensures that your Body Mass Index (BMI) is within the recommended range.
  4. You follow low fat recipes, eating foods that are low in saturated and trans fat.
  5. Sugar, oil and alcoholic beverage consumption is restricted.
  6. Your food has low sodium content
The means used to grow, store and prepare food also plays an important in enhancing or depleting the nutritional value of the food. 

The human body requires various types of nutrients in order to keep the body healthy and fit. These nutrients should be taken appropriately in our diet. The diet that we follow should be balanced. Balanced diet is a diet, which provides all the nutrients needed by the body in correct proportions.
This means that it should contain all the types of nutrients in the required quantities. Each meal should contain sources of carbohydrates (such as cereals), proteins (such as pulses), fats (such as cooking oil), vitamins and minerals (such as variety of vegetables).
Some of the common foods and their composition are given below:
 Food Carbohydrate Fat Protein
 Bread (Roti) 52% 3% 9%
 Rice (cooked) 23% 0.1% 2.2%
 Banana 20% 0.5% 1,0%
 Potato 19% 0.1% 2%
 Peas 16.7% 0.5% 5.2%
 Apples 12.8% 0.5% 0.3%
 Cabbage 5.5% 0.3% 1.2%
 Spinach (Palak, Saag) 3.2% 0.3% 1.6%
 Eggs 0.7% 12% 13%
 Milk 4% 4% 4%
 Butter 0.4% 81% 0.6%
 Cheese 2% 32% 25%
 Meat 0 30% 22%
 Chicken 0 11% 20%
 Fish 0 0.4% 17%

Given below is the recommended daily allowances of energy, proteins and fats:
 Group Body Wt in kg Net Energy in k Cal Protein in g Fat in g
 Adult Man 60 2875 60 20
 Woman 50 2225 50 20
 13-15 yrs Boy 47-48 2450 70 22
 Girl 46-47 2060 55 22

In addition, the body also needs fibrous content called the roughage (for digestion) and water. A diet that contains all the above is called a balanced diet.

Balanced diets of moderately active adult Indians

 Food Recommended amounts (g per day)
 Adult Man Adult Woman
 Cereals (rice/wheat) 520 440
 Pulses 50 45
 Meat/Fish 30 30
 Egg 1 1
 Milk 200 150
 Oil/fats 45 25
 Sugar/molasses 35 20
 Roots and tubers (potato, etc.) 60 50
 Green leafy vegetables (spinach, etc.) 40 100
 Other vegetables (cauliflower, etc.) 70 40

Energy requirement

A balanced diet should not only take care of the different types of nutrients but also consider the energy requirements of the individual. This is because different people have different lifestyles and varied nature of work. A man with sedentary habits does not require as much energy as the man who is on his feet for most of the day. The energy requirement is measured in terms of calories. The calorie requirement depends on the age, sex, height, weight, occupation and state of health.
 Age Energy required
 5 years 6000 kJ per day
 11 years 9000 kJ per day
 18 years 11000 kJ per day
 Adult (normal work) 9600 kJ per day
 Adult (heavy work) 12000 kJ per day
 Adult (very heavy work) 16000 kJ per day
A young boy of about 15 years requires more calories or energy than an adult man who does not do heavy work. Similarly, lactating mothers require high energy and high protein diet for good lactation.

Snoring - Reasons Behind Snoring and How to Stop It.



Snoring is a common problem with a lot of people, especially males. This embarrassing difficulty can lead to serious medical conditions.

Snoring is a resonant sound that emerges from the mouth and/or nose during sleep. This sound is the result of a vibration that occurs in the airway. At night, the soft tissues of the airway relax and thus flatten the airway. The air, thus, has to come out with force, leading to the vibration of these tissues. The narrower the airway, the louder the snoring.

Causes of Snoring


Some of the major causes of snoring occur due to problems associated with the respiratory tract due to allergies (hay fever, asthma), medications for allergies and cold and flu. In all these cases, the airway becomes clogged, leading to snoring. Enlarged adenoids or tonsils can also lead to snoring. A disproportionately large tongue can also be a factor. Alcohol consumption is also implicated in snoring since alcohol causes throat muscles to collapse and dilates blood vessels, which can lead to the swelling of throat tissues. Snoring also occurs in the elderly due to weakening of muscles and tissues in the throat.
A person may snore with either the mouth closed or open. If the snoring is with mouth open, then the throat tissues are responsible for the problem. If snoring occurs with mouth closed, then the position of the tongue is a possibility in snoring. Usually people snore when lying on the back. But if a person snores regardless of sleeping position, it could signify a bigger problem and the person could require medical treatment to cure the problem.

Snoring Facts
Snoring is made worse by alcohol or sleeping tablets
   
 Overweight people are more prone to snoring
      Sleeping on your back increases the chances of snoring
      Colds, nasal polyps and allergies make snoring worse
      Older people often snore due to muscular weakness that occurs with age
      Medications may cause dryness or minor irritation of the nasal passageways and increase  the incidence of snoring
      A larger than usual uvula can limit airflow

       
Injuries to the nose that result in a deviation of the septum may result in snoring
     Smokers are twice as likely to snore


 

Self Help Ideas to prevent or minimize snoring

 

1.If you're overweight try to lose some of it

2.Avoid alcohol and rich foods like chocolates before bedtime and eat healthy foods generally
3.Stop smoking

4.Try raising your head by putting pillows under it
5.Sleep on your side. Some people sew a tennis ball on the back of their night clothes to help them
6.
Blow your nose before going to bed.

 

Problems of Snoring


 If none of the remedies work,consult a doctor.Although snoring is a problem not regarded as serious by most people, it can lead to very serious medical conditions like heart disease, stroke, headaches during the day, heartburn and a weakened immune system. Probably the most serious of all the conditions that snoring can cause is sleep apnea. In this condition, breathing stops during sleep. Sleep apnea can be fatal -- the sufferer may die during sleep due to discontinuation of breathing. Other problems due to sleep apnea can be traced to the buildup of carbon dioxide in the blood leading to heart disease, stroke and brain damage.
