The Suryanar temple is located 12kms from
Kumbakonam enroute to Mayavaram. Surya's wives are Usha,
Prathyusha. The presiding deities are Puranavaradheeswarar and
his consort Mangalanayaki. Surya is the Lord of Simma Rasi and
occupies the central place amongst the navagrahas. The adidevatha
is Agni, prathyutha Devatha - Rudran. His colour is red and his
vahana is a chariot drawn by seven horses. The grain associated
with his is wheat; the flower - lotus, yerukku; fabric - red
clothes; gem - ruby; food - wheat, rava, chakkara pongal.
Kalava Munivar had foreseen his future and relised
that he would suffer from leprosy. He prayed to the Navagrahas,
who being pleased with his devotion absolved him of the disease.
Brahma Deva on realising that the Navagrahas were granting boons,
instead of aspecting a person as per his/her good and bad deeds,
condemned them to suffer from leprosy and banished them to
earth.
The Navagrahas realising their mistake, pleaded for
mercy. Brahma adviced them to seek the blessings of Lord Sva and
his consort Uma Devi residing at Thirumangalakudi, after bathing
in the holy river, Cauvery. He adviced them to consume only curd
rice laid on Velerukku leaf.
Lord Siva, pleased with their devotion absolved
them of their sins and decried that there will be nine sannadhis
for the navagrahas in the Suryanar temple (this is the only
temple where all the navagrahas are present with separate
sannadhis) and those who pray here will get relief from their
problems.
