Kunnathunada Balabhadra Temple, Irumpa


Kunnathunada Balabhadra Devi temple is a Hindu religious shrine located near Irumpa, Aruvikkara. Goddess Bhadrakali is the main deity in this temple.

If you seek spiritual enlightenment, chanting the Goddess Mantra can bring a lot of positive energy into your life. The DEVI is revered as the Goddess of Time, Creation, Destruction and Power.


Balabhadra is a vicious form of Hindu Goddess Devi, known for the indestructible nature. Balabhadra devi is commonly depicted with 18 arms all carrying weapons as she rides atop a fierce tiger. 


Balabhadra devi carries the weapons which are endeared to her as a defender of the world. She is frequently seen slaying demons and it is said that she was created to fight off the incredible might of the asura Mahishasura.


Balabhadra devi is known as the preserve of Earth. She is simultaneously portrayed as the giver and destructor of life. 


However, in most of the interpretations she is portrayed as ferocious and she is the mother of the world and the treasure-house of compassion. She is considered as the primordial mass from which all life arouses.


If you are at Trivandrum and tired after prolonged work schedules, then take a drive to this amazing/powerful temple which could bring a lot of positive energy to your life. The place is comparatively less crowded where you could get a historical essence with divine feelings. 


By Car – The temple is located about 12km from Trivandrum. If you are heading towards Ponmudi, take a deviation from Karakulam towards Aruvikkara road and it’s hardly 2mts drive.

 Visit this powerful temple at least once in a life-time.

Trip to Kodaikanal – The Queen of Hill stations

Trip to Kodaikanal – Queen of Hill stations This post is about our travel to Kodaikanal -The princess of Hill stations Hills and mountains always keep mesmerizing to me. So, we always keep looking for a chance to travel to hill stations and spend some time in the lap of nature, away from the hustle and bustle of city. I’ve of course travelled some of the hill stations (like Munnar, Ooty, Ponmudi etc) but Kodaikanal is the best I would say of all the hill-stations.  Just sharing my travel experience to Kodaikanal -in the lap of mother nature. Kodaiknal is the city in Dindigul district of Tamil Nadu.

The haunting story – Bonacaud Bungalow!

Bonacaud is known for its breathtaking beauty. Bonacaud was once a majestic tea estate set up by the British right below the Agasthya mountain ranges in Trivandrum.  Bonacaud is very close to Ponmudi hills, taking a deviation at the Theviyode Junction, takes you to Bonacaud. The road forward is fairly rough. Be careful as you drive along this winding road because coming across wildlife is a common occurrence. As you go on, you might get to see the Peppara Dam in all its grandeur. Getting a good glimpse however is rare as the area is almost always shrouded in a thick layer of mist. The plush green mountain ranges move past your windows and the buildings in the Bonacaud estate stand grimly in the distance. The journey started with one of my close friends, Rajesh and his wonderful team of colleagues.  Trekking expeditions are quite common in this area and quite a few groups arrive every day to explore the factory ruins and the famous, haunt...

Memories of the Nilgiri train journey!

Things disappear without your permission, then come back again without your permission. I just want to pass on some warped memories that came back from my Ooty train journey 10 years back exactly! I can't believe we just passed 10 years after getting married and I was looking back through our old photographs and so many loving memories flooded my mind. Nevertheless, I realized to share it here with snapshots from the old point and shoot! The journey happened soon after my marriage and we started searching for good destination (with my brother Santhosh) and we decided to go ahead with the Ooty one as we didn’t have enough time to look at other options. With Santhosh at Ooty garden spot Ooty is one of the best places to escape for an exotic holiday. The Nilgiri mountain train gives you best sights of this gorgeous Hill station.  It recaps the essence of Nilgiris, lush green tea-estates, towering Eucalyptus trees, stunning bridges, uncountable tunnels wher...
