Kanyakumari

Kanyakumari Kshetra is treated as a sacred confluence/tirtha. Its place in the itinerary is retained as an independent physical pilgrimage destination. The reference is retained here in the sequence of Sri Vadirajaru's pilgrimage so that a pilgrim can connect the present-day sacred place with the Kshetra or Tirtha praised in the Tirtha Prabandha.

Sthala Purana: Kanyakumari centres on Devi in her virgin form and the sacred southern ocean confluence. The place continues to be approached as a sacred destination in its regional pilgrimage tradition. The present guide therefore focuses on the principal deity, tirtha or sacred feature that a pilgrim can identify and visit today, without treating later local traditions as though every detail were stated by Sri Vadirajaru.

Places to See in the Kshetra: Bhagavathi Amman Temple, Triveni Sangama / Seashore.

Temple Timings                Morning: 4:30 AM – 12:30 PM         &           Evening: 4:00 PM – 8:00 PM      ( Special darshan during Navaratri and Cape Festival)
