The Divine Legend of Kamalambikai & Thyagaraja – Lords of Tiruvarur
Tiruvarur, one of the holiest towns in Tamil Nadu, is home to the grand Thyagaraja Temple. Here, Lord Shiva manifests as Thyagaraja Swamy—a majestic form believed to have been worshipped by Lord Vishnu himself. Thyagaraja is known as the "Somaskanda" form of Shiva, appearing between Parvati and their son Skanda, representing the ideal divine family.
Goddess Kamalambikai resides in her own sanctum, revered as the presiding deity of the Sri Vidya tradition. According to legend, Kamalambikai performed penance to attain Lord Shiva, and he appeared as Thyagaraja Swamy in his dancing form—bestowing divine joy upon the universe.
The temple’s Sapta Vidanga tradition believes that the image of Thyagaraja dances at specific shrines when taken in procession—a miracle witnessed only by those with spiritual merit. This Golu doll pair captures the spiritual serenity and dynamic dance of the cosmos, centered around devotion and grace.
