Thiruppirudhi | Sri Paramapurusha Perumal Temple | Joshimutt | Divya Desams - 098
Temple Location :

This Divyadesam is around 154 miles away from Haridwar, while travelling from Devprayag to Badrinath.

There is no firm or conclusive agreement on where this Divyadesam is situated. Many of the pilgrims believe that Joshimutt is the Divyadesam which is called as “Thiruppirudhi” and some say that Thiruppirudhi is in the interior of Himalayas.

Specials:

The Specialty of this place is Sri Aadhi Sankaracharya, who came all the way from Kerala in the 8th Century A.D., performed Tapas under a tree here and after getting enlighten, established a MUTT known as “Jyothirmutt“. This Jyothismutt later became “Joshimutt”.

Sthalapuranam

Thiruppirudhi which is otherwise called as Joshimutt explains that it has a close relation between the Lord Emperumaan and His devotees. The devotees show their Preethi (affection) towards the Emperumaan and they get the same from the Emperumaan. That’s the reason this spot got the name as “Thiruppirudhi”.

This Thiruppirudhi Kshetram is about 154 miles away from Haridwar while travelling from Devprayag to Badrinath.

Devotees who travel towards Badrikashram with lots of effort and traveling in snow, they feel tired and supressed. But, after reaching this Joshimutt they are happy and feel relaxed because only a few miles away from here is Badrikashram. The Salagrama Narasimha at the Sankara Mutt is being worshipped by the devotees as considering him as the Lord Sriman Narayana.

It is said a king named “Nandar” stayed in this Kshetram and sacrificed for the welfare of the whole humanity to live a good life, this sthalam is also called as “Nandaprayag”. It is said that the Kanva Maharishi also lived in this sthalam.

In winter season, when Badrikashram sthalam is closed, the Badrinath utsavar is taken from Badrinath and kept in here and gives his seva as Badri Narayanan for his bhaktas for six months.

Among 108 divyadesams, there are two divya desams where we can't go with our body, only our Aathma (soul) can reach. The two divya desams are Paramapadham and Thirupparkadal. But, the Lord God shows His full view as depicted in Thiruparkadal, to His devotees in this location.

Only, Thirumangai alwar has done the Mangalasasanam on his perumal. Among his 10 Paasurams, in 3 Pasurams he compares the perumal as 3 avatars (ie) as Rama, Krishna and Narasimha avatar of Sri Vishnu.

Sri Adhisankarar has constructed a temple here for Sri Narasimha and standing posture Sri Vasudeva. To reach the temple, one has to go downwards in the step which is around 3/4 miles away. Sri Aadhi Sankarar has established a peetam and got the Gnana by doing tapas here and wrote “Sankara Bhashyam”.

Moolavar:

The Moolavar of this sthalam is Paramapurushan. He is in sleeping posture (Kidantha kolam) in Bujangha sayanam facing east. Pratyaksham for Parvathi devi.

Thaayar:

The Thayar of Thiruppirudhi sthalam is Parimalavalli Naachiyaar.

Mangalasasanam:

Thirumangai Alwar is the only Alwar who has done Mangalasasanam on this sthala perumal in 10 Paasurams.

Pushkarani:

Since, this sthala perumal is like the same way as the perumal found in Thiruparkadal and His disciples can’t go along with their human body only their Aathma (soul) can reach, the bhaktas in their mind itself worship this perumal as the perumal in Paarkadal. Since, the bhaktas worship in their mind (Maanaseegam), the pushkarani is Maanasaras. Other theertham are Govardhana Theertham and Indira Theertham.

Vimaanam:

In Krishna avatar, Sri Kannan protects all the Yadavas, Aayars and all the cows from the heavy rain through the Govardhan mountain serving them as an umbrella. Likewise, this sthala perumal protects the people here having his Vimaanam as Govardhana Vimaanam.
