Siddhar Temple and more than 1500 years old Thenupureeswarar Temple which are located very close to each other, in front of these Temples is the Bhavya Swarupa Shri Raghavendra Swami’s Miruthiga Nala Brindavan located in Chennai, Mambakkam Main Road, Sithalapakkam.
In earlier days, Mantralaya Aachariyar conducted regular poojas for the Sithalapakkam Brindavan Mirthigai. In 48 days special poojas Mirthigai was worshiped. At Brahma Muhurtham, Aachariyar kept the Mirthiga over his head and placed it with celebration and incidental music in Brindavan. Therefore it is termed as Mirthiga Brindhavan - to enlighten the Gururaj Brindavan, Kumbaabishegam was done beautifully.
Meanwhile an eagle from above came near the Gopura kalasam and revolved around it 3 times. Seeing that, all the people exclaimed ‘Narayana’, ‘Raghavendra’..!
The uppermost part of the Gopura kalasam is the statue of Nagaraj with his eagle which is four facet.
The Gururaj Brindavan provides all blessings and goodness and hence it is called as ‘Mirthiga Nala Brindavan’.
