That is to say Hindus, Christians and Muslims also come there, and are blessed by lord AYYAPPA.?Narrating the story of lord AYYAPPA. He was the elder son of PANDALA King and the King when was not having any child by the grace of Lord SHIVA got AYYAPPA in the forest as a baby. After some time PANDALA King was blessed by one more son. And when both his sons were growing up one of his ministers said to the queen that if Lord AYYAPPA is going to be the next king then your own son will not get the rights of a king, so as per his ideas they made a plan and said to the king that the queen was having severe pain in the stomach and to cure her a medicine is to be made but for that tigresses milk is necessary. Now the question was who will bring it. For his mother lord AYYAPPA became ready to go to the forest for the milk. In the deep forest Lord Shiva appeared in from of him and asked for everything he said about her mothers stomach pain. On hearing the same lord SHIVA became a tiger and roared all the tigers in the forest came behind him when they reached PANDALAM everybody were afraid and the queen said that she was lying and she don’t have any pain. Seeing all this PANDALA king understood that his son was blessed one and asked about him. He said about his birth and reason for it. Lord AYYAPPA stated everything and said that he now wants to go back and he left an arrow which spotted on SABARI MALAI and from that time onwards his temple was made over there. As he was a Brahmachari (Not married) so devotees going their should follow BRAHMACHARYA for about 42 days, whether he is married or not. So from that time every year on 14 th of January devotees reach there in crores. Every year the number of devotees are increasing. There is a lot to narrate about lord AYYAPPA.?
