kuttichathan and kanadikavu

Centuries ago the princely states in Malayalakkara (Kerala) used to wage battles every now and then. Chazoor, one of the princely states belonging to the Cochin State, suffered defeat in almost all the battles. The King who ruled the land understood that what he needed was a good commander of the army who was patriotic, faithful and proficient inwarfare. The search for a faithful man to lead the army was on. At last the King of Chirakkal Kovilakam offered to send one of his commanders named Konnamooppan, who was well known as a commander and also as a highly skilled soldier. Thus Konnamuthappan, who was proficient in both the Kadathanaadan and Tulunaadan warfare, reached the palace at Chazoor. Muthappan soon realized that to win battles they needed the presence and blessings of a powerful and easy-to-please deity. So he undertook a severe penance to please the deity of his family at Kalarivathukkal Devi temple in Kannur. The Goddess soon appeared before him. Konnamuthappan requested the Goddess to give him the Mantram that would enable him to please and possess Chathan Swami, the son of Sree parameshwara. Pleased at her devotee’s penance the Goddess told him the Moola Manthram to make Chathan appear before him and the Dhyana Manthram to worship him every day. He then went to the Himalayas and following the advice of the Naga Sages, entered into a severe penance. Vishnumaya Kuttichathan Swami soon appeared before him, and he returned to Peringottukara with the deity. History reveals that after that the princely state won all the battles with the neighbouring states under the leadership of Konnacharyan and annexed them to the Chazoor Kingom. The ancient family house of Kanadi stands at the place that was given to Konnamuthappan, free of tax, to stay, to run his martial school and to consecrate his deity, the Vishnumaya Chathan who was ever visible to the commander. Brahmasree Vishnubharatheeya Swami, who is the eldest male member of the family and the spiritual preceptor now, is the descendent of Konnamuthappan (Konnacharyamuni).A number of copper plates and Palmyra leaves with inscriptions about the greatness of Konnacharya Swami have been preserved as a treasure at Kanadi Kavu even today. It remains as a wonder that even in this age dominated by scientific thoughts, many devotees who arrive at Kanadi Kavu with their worries and complaints find themselves relieved of their burdens and are shown a better life by Lord Vishnumaya swami, who protects those who pray to him and punish those who defy him. Belief comes only from one’s own experience. What you have been told and what is considered hearsay will not last long. Experience is the basis for eternal belief.
