Oldest God of the World
Saivam is considered to be the very oldest religion in the world, said many experts. Many countries had the practice of worshipping their God which is very much related to the appearance of Lord Shiva. Then comes the practice of Goddess worship.
It is said that in a flame, the mid portion which is in red colour is considered to be Lord Shiva. The blue part surrounding the red portion is considered to be Goddess Shakthi. Later many people denied worshipping a woman. There comes the practice of worshipping Lord Perumal.
If we look into that word, Perumal we can realize the ending letters “al” which is considered as the end letters for a feminine name in Tamil. Peruman indicates, “an”, masculine.

சிவவாக்கியர்
நீளவீடு கட்டி நீர் நெடுங்கதவு சாத்துவீர்
வாழவேண்டும் என்றலோ எண்ணியிருந்த மாந்தர்காள்
காலன் ஓலை வந்தபோது கைகலந்து நின்றிடும்
ஆலம் உண்ட கண்டர்பாதம் அம்மை பாதம் உண்மையே!
வாழவேண்டும் என்றலோ எண்ணியிருந்த மாந்தர்காள்
காலன் ஓலை வந்தபோது கைகலந்து நின்றிடும்
ஆலம் உண்ட கண்டர்பாதம் அம்மை பாதம் உண்மையே!
தேவாரம்
தந்தையார் போயினர் தாயாரும் போயினர் தாமும் போவார்
கொந்தவேல் கொண்டொரு கூற்றத்தார் பார்க்கின்றார் கொண்டு போவார்
எந்த நாள் வாழ்வதற்கே மனம் வைத்தியால் ஏழை நெஞ்சே
அந்த ஆரூர் தொழுது உய்யலாம் மையல் கொண்டு அஞ்சல் நெஞ்சே!
கொந்தவேல் கொண்டொரு கூற்றத்தார் பார்க்கின்றார் கொண்டு போவார்
எந்த நாள் வாழ்வதற்கே மனம் வைத்தியால் ஏழை நெஞ்சே
அந்த ஆரூர் தொழுது உய்யலாம் மையல் கொண்டு அஞ்சல் நெஞ்சே!

Amazing incident
Kumbakonam: People here got excited seeing a Cobra picking Vilva leaves and doing Archana / pooja for Siva Linga. There is a famous Temple for Sri Viswanatha at Thepperumanallur near Kumbakonam.
Here, yesterday the priest opened the sanctum doors at about 10:30 AM and went to fetch water. At that time he noticed a Cobra descending from the Temple Vilva (Bilva) tree carrying a Vilva leaf in its mouth. It entered the Sanctum of Sivalinga, went around the Vigraha and dropped the leaf on top of the Linga. Then they saw the same being repeated one more time carrying a Vilva leaf and putting it on the Siva Linga. The Priest explained "It is doing the archana during the Solar Eclipse time to wash off its sins".The Naga Serpent has been regularly visiting the Siva Idol for the last three SOLAR ECLIPSES. The priest and some locals had arranged for a photographer a few months back during Sooriya Grahanam. In fact, they had kept milk offering also for the Naga. But the snake did not appear on the day.
On this particular SOLAR ECLISE Grahanam day when the priest opened the Sanctum Sanctorum he saw
the snake on the top of the Siva Linga idol. He immediately called Mr. Thenappan the photographer who lives in Thrunagesvaram a kilo meter from this village.
Meantime a dozen or more people including my house caretaker had assembled to witness this miracle. In front of their eyes the Naga went back to the "Vilwa tree" plucked the leaves and came back all the way
to drop it on the Siva Linga.
All these have been photographed by Mr. Thenappan (photos received directly from the photographer annexed).It may be pertinent to note that many of the residents of this VILLAGE (Agaraharm) are named Nagarajan
or Nagalingam for a few generations.

Supreme God of the World
World believe that the Indus valley civilization is one the very old civilizations of the world. They have the common practice of worshipping Lord Shiva. Researchers found many markings and evidences from the settlements.
The shape of Shiva lingam is again a mystery which has no beginning and no end just as the Lord himself. Shape of the lingam symbolizes the shape of zygote. Every life in the world acquires its first shape as the shape of lingam.
