I visited the temple with family and offered prayers for my health.Apart from salt and pepper,i was advised to melt jaggary{vellam in tamil} in the pond.
Swamy Veeraraghavan and Kanagavalli Thayar are prathyaksha deivams - I have had practical evidence in my life for the same
what will be the temple timings on the amavasai days? whether it will be opened for the whole days or is there any timings on that days too?
what about the darshans on that particular days?
Thanks Swamy..Hope the Lord showers his blessings on you and your family and gives you a long healthy life
