Very heartening to see the number of hits to the Thiruvannamalai post. I am humbled and am bound to correct one fact in the post. I should have done that sometime back. Sorry about not doing it.
Ner Annamalai:
This is not the place where The Hill will be viewed straight, as mentioned in my earlier post. This is the shrine, where on Tamil New Year's day (சி த் தி ரை -1, Chithrai - 1, April 14/15) every year, Sun directly falls on the Lingam. A marvel indeed!! There is an illustration of this in front of the shrine also.
Btw, I had the blessing of Arunachala to perform Girivalam 2 more times after that :)
Cheers
