点评:Parassinikadavu Muthappan temple is a temple, located at the banks of the Valapattanam River about 10 km from Taliparamba in Kannur District, Kerala. Principal deity of the temple is Sree Muthappan, whose divinity is presented as a ritualistic theyyam enactment in two versions called Thiruvappana and Vellattam.
The secular nature of this God is further evident in treating every one equally, irrespective of this caste, religion, country. or creed. There are no restrictions, no dress regulations and any body can go up to the sanctum-sanctorum and pray.
There is free tea and steamed green gram (Payaru) also as prasadam, very good destination for pilgrimage.
Vellattam (an ancient ritualistic form of worship in which the priest in an elaborate traditional attire (as in Theyyam) goes into trance and acts like an oracle listening to the grievances of devotees and suggesting remedial measures) takes place in the morning and evening.
Temple is located in picturesque surroundings on the banks of Valapattinam river. The climb-down from the bus-stand amidst greenery through steps (about 100) or a winding road (using bikes/ Autorickshaw/car) is a memorable experience.
The drive from Thrissur to Parassinikadavu and back via Mahe is another attraction. A small deviation will take you to Muzhippilangaad drive in beach also.
翻译:Parassinikadavu Muthappan 神庙位于喀拉拉邦坎努尔区塔利帕兰巴约 10 公里外的瓦拉帕塔南河岸边。神庙的主神是 Sree Muthappan,其神性以仪式化的 theyyam 形式呈现,有两种版本,分别称为 Thiruvappana 和 Vellattam。
这位神的世俗性进一步体现在对每个人一视同仁,不分种姓、宗教、国家或信仰。这里没有任何限制,没有着装规定,任何人都可以进入圣殿祈祷。
这里还有免费的茶和蒸绿豆 (Payaru),还有 prasadam,是朝圣的好去处。
Vellattam(一种古老的祭祀仪式,祭司身着精致的传统服饰(如 Theyyam)进入恍惚状态,像神谕一样倾听信徒的抱怨并提出补救措施)在早上和晚上举行。
寺庙位于风景如画的 Valapattinam 河畔。从绿树成荫的公交车站下山,经过台阶(约 100 级)或蜿蜒的道路(骑自行车/自动人力车/汽车)是一次难忘的体验。
从 Thrissur 到 Parassinikadavu 再经 Mahe 返回的车程是另一个景点。稍作绕行即可到达 Muzhippilangaad 海滩。
