Panguni Uthiram – 17th Mar 2022
Dear Devotees,
Shiva Durga Temple invites you to be part of Panguni Uthiram. May Lord Shanmuga Bless You And Your Family.
The story behind Panguni Uthiram:
Though there were other celestial weddings on this day, Panguni Uthiram is highly significant to Lord Muruga as he married Deivanai, daughter of Lord Indra, on this day. Also called Devasena in North India, she was raised by Indra’s white elephant, Iravat. All Murugan temples celebrate this day. Jayantipura Mahatmya talks about the divine marriage between Lord Muruga and his consorts, Valli and Deivanai.
