<p> </p> <p>Keezhoor Bhagavathy temple is located at Keezhoor on the Thalayolaparambu – Koothattukulam road in Kottayam district, Kerala. The temple is around 4 km north of Kaduthuruthy. The annual festival at Keezhoor Bhagavathy temple is observed from Medam 15 to Medam 20.</p> <p>The festival begins with kodiyettam and ends with arattu.</p> <p> </p> <p>Pana ritual is held from Pathamudayam (April 23 to April 26). Thalappoli and Kumbha Kudam too are held during the period.</p> <p><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kPKlwrwzEK4/YBNf0OEH6DI/AAAAAAAAbaU/WSMjd4-cVJUuSI-GMEGqkc4D6d_6pjKkQCLcBGAsYHQ/s500/Keezhoor%2BBhagavathy%2BTemple%2BFestival.jpg"><img src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-kPKlwrwzEK4/YBNf0OEH6DI/AAAAAAAAbaU/WSMjd4-cVJUuSI-GMEGqkc4D6d_6pjKkQCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/Keezhoor%2BBhagavathy%2BTemple%2BFestival.jpg" style="height:auto" /></a></p> <p>The temple has three main deities – Shiva, Vishnu and Bhadrakali. The deities face east. Festival in the temple is only dedicated to Goddess Bhadrakali.</p> <p>There is a belief that the original murti in this temple was a Yakshi. Another belief is that Shiva and Vishnu were the original murtis. The local ruler Keezhur Naduvazhi once went on a hunting expedition and found the Bhadrakali murti in Mangatu Kulam. He consecrated the Bhadrakali murti in the temple and the temple gained importance in the region as a Bhagavathy temple.</p> <p>The Upa Devatas in the temple are Ganapathy, Yakshi, Sastha and Nagam. Yakshi, Sastha and Nagam are worshipped in the same sreekovil.</p> <p> </p> <p>This famous Bhagavathi Kshethram (Devi temple) is believed to be founded by a yogi from Kottarathil house, Keezhoor. He got a "val kannadi" (mirror of special size) when he took bath in a pond in the forest. He brought it to the Kottarathil house and felt devi darshan in the night. This is the start and later a temple was built by all the people in Kezhoor near to the Shiva and Vishnu temples. (please remember that initially the vishnu temple belongs to a 'yakshi') Now the temple is managed by Travancore Devaswam Board.<br /> <br /> Devi Godess is very strong and in the state of RUDRA BHAVA. Pana, Otta thookkam are major functions during the festival.<br /> Separate festivals are being conducted for 3 temples here.<br /> <br /> We should never forget Late Mr Ramakrisha Pillai (Bhasi) who took a long and leading role in the development of this temple.</p>
