点评:This is my ode and respect to Lord Brahma himself , the CREATOR. To assist / guide anyone who wishes to travel to this temple down south is the purpose of this post. For the first timers / solo travelers visiting, lets start with a few tips. It helps to be a south Indian but if not , you would have to find someone who speaks in English. Hindi and other languages are a challenge too. Based on your convenience , book a flight to Trichy. Its best to visit the temple on a Thursday if possible so land atleast a day before. Rapido is available in the city of Trichy and you can easily take a bike or a rickshaw and you will be charged Rs 200 additional by the driver. Choose Srirangam as the location to stay and a night in a decent hotel will cost Rs 1200 - Rs 1500 . The total fare to Srirangam from the airport will be Rs 400- Rs 800 depending on the mode of transport. It will take maximum 30 mins to reach Srirangam. Local food is paratha and free chutneys , sambhar and stew that you may enjoy with filter coffee. There are no luxury properties in Trichy nor are there any accommodations available in Tirputhur where is the temple is . Stay the night at Srirangam on a Wednesday and take a Rapido bike to the temple for Rs 400 one way 26 kms away early moaning on a Thursday at 4.30 am. You will reach the temple by 5 am. Incase you wish to do an abhisheka you have to pay online and book for Rs 3500 in advance. However if you wish to only get your horoscope blessed please carry a hard bound original horoscope, The priests at the temple do not entertain a photocopy of the original horoscope. Queue up for your turn to drop the horoscope right at the shrine when the priest circulate the basket in front of the Brahma idol covered with turmeric. They will return it back with a layer of turmeric as a blessing. Please do visit the Parvati shrine inside as it was MAA PARVATI who persuaded Lord Shiva to forgive Lord Brahma. Right outside the temple is a corner where you can light 36 divyas or earthen lamps so do carry oil and cotton wicks. Its best to keep a driver and a vehicle waiting or stick to the local bus that is at a 40 mins frequency costing Rs 20 back to Srirangam and which takes around an hour atleast. If you stick to the above schedule you will save time and money. There are other temples like Rockfort and Shiva - Swayambhu temples in Trichy that you can cover within a day if you hire a vehicle for Rs 3000. There are no KFCs or MacDonalds in the city. I have provided the precise details for a solo traveler with the pure intent of getting his / her horoscope blessed at Brahmapureeshwarar. May this be helpful to one and only planning to visit the temple in future with HIS GUIDEDANCE. My review is excellent place to visit for sure even if it to seek blessings or forgiveness . GOD BLESS ALL
翻译:这是我向创世主——梵天大神所表达的颂歌与敬意。发布此帖的目的,就是为那些希望前往南方那座寺庙的人提供帮助与指引。对于初次前往或独自旅行的朋友,这里先分享几条小贴士。如果你是南印度人,那当然会方便许多;若非如此,则需要找一位会说英语的人陪同。印地语及其他语言对旅行者来说也是不小的挑战。根据个人情况,建议预订飞往蒂鲁吉拉尔普利的航班吧。如果可能的话,最好在周四去参观寺庙,因此至少要提前一天抵达。在蒂鲁奇市可以租到Rapido摩托车,您也可以轻松租到自行车或人力车,不过司机会额外收取200卢比的费用。建议选择斯里兰甘作为住宿地,一家不错的酒店一晚的费用大约在1200至1500卢比之间。从机场到斯里兰甘的总费用视交通方式而定,约为400至800卢比。全程最多30分钟即可抵达斯里兰甘。当地的特色美食有帕拉塔饼、免费的酸辣酱、桑巴尔汤以及炖菜,这些都可以搭配过滤咖啡一同享用。蒂鲁奇拉帕利没有任何豪华酒店,而神庙所在的蒂尔普图尔也没有任何住宿设施。你可以在周三时在斯里兰甘过夜,然后在周四凌晨4点半骑上Rapido摩托车出发,支付400卢比的单程费用后便可行驶26公里抵达神庙。这样你就能在清晨5点前到达。如果你想参加“阿比舍卡”仪式,则需要提前在线支付3500卢比进行预约。不过,如果您只希望为自己的星盘祈福,请务必携带装订成册的星盘原件。寺庙里的祭司不接受星盘的复印件。当祭司拿着装满物品的篮子在涂有姜黄的梵天神像前走动时,请排队等候,轮流将星盘放入篮中。之后,星盘会被重新返还给您,上面已沾有一层姜黄,这便是一种祝福。请务必参观寺内的帕尔瓦蒂神殿,因为正是帕尔瓦蒂女神劝说湿婆神宽恕了梵天。寺庙外有一个专门用来点灯的区域,您可以在那里点燃36盏油灯或泥土灯,所以记得带上油和棉芯。最佳方案是安排司机和车辆等候,或者乘坐每隔40分钟一班、票价仅为20卢比的当地巴士返回斯里兰甘,不过这段路程至少需要一小时。只要按照上述安排行事,就能既省时又省钱。如果你花费3000卢比租用一辆车,一天之内便可游览特里奇里的洛克福特神庙以及湿婆-斯瓦扬布胡神庙等其他寺庙。这座城市里没有肯德基或麦当劳。我提供了这些详细信息,是专门为那些希望前往布拉马普里斯瓦尔神庙求得星盘祈福的独行旅客准备的。愿这些信息能帮助到那些今后打算在神的指引下前往该神庙的人。我的评价是:这里绝对是个值得一游的好地方,即便只是为了祈求祝福或赦免。愿上帝保佑所有人。
