Mookambika ashtothara

Mookambika ashtothara

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander

(Goddess Mookambika  the presiding deity of  Kollur temple  of the Udupi district  of Karnataka.  There are two stories . There was an Asura called Kaumasura   who was told by his gUru that he would be killed by a woman. He did great penance addressed  to Lord Shiva . When Lord Shiva appeared  and was about to  give noons, Goddess Saraswathi tied his toungue and made him mute(Mooka) . At that time a sage called Kola  prays Goddess and she creates a super divinity God by unifying the power of all Gods and that power kills Mookasura. That place  where she killed the Asura is Kollur where  the Goddess is staying ,She sits there on padmasana  with a peaceful looks, having four hands and holding Shankha and Chakra in two hands. The temple was built in a place where Lord Shiva drew a sreechakrs on the land by his toe.
  Another legend says that  sage Shankara did penance and pleased goddess Saraswathi  with a request that she should accompany him to Kerala, where he wanted to consecrate a temple for her. She asked him to walk towards kErala and she would be walking behind him.Her presence could be recognized   by the sound of her anklets .,She told him , if at any time he turns back to see her, she would stay there. When they reached the Kudajadri   mountain, Adhi Sankara could not hear the sound of the anklets   and looked back, The Goddess decided to stay there, Adhi Sankara   got greatly upset , Then the Goddess promised that  she woud always be  in Chothinikkara temple of Kerala during Nirmalya darsanam. And after that she would return to Kollur every day.
    All Keralites believe that   She is goddess Saraswathi. They consider it as a great fortune  if they take babies to Vidhyarambam 9starting of learning)  to that temple . Many great people   whom we have heard are her devotees.Let us worship her and get wisdom.)
