Sri Marathandavar Bala Dhandayuthapani Alayam is an ancient temple in Malaysia. Panguni Uthiram which occurs during the month of March/April is celebrated in this temple. Numerous devotees come to perform there as well as carry Kavadi

The temple is located in the midst of palm oil and rubber plantations, and is rather secluded. Hence, it is ideal for meditation and spiritual contemplation. Several saints have visited this holy place and have claimed that powerful energy from heaven is frequently directed towards the locality of this mystical temple. Adding to the unique nature of the temple is its mystical origin. The name of the temple 'Marathandavar' means deity of the tree. The tree mentioned in this context is the sacred rudraksha tree. Rudraksha is identified as the eye of Lord Shiva, whereby Rudra denotes Lord Shiva and Aksha indicates the eye. This divine bead is the ultimate holy talisman, as it transforms negative energy into positive energy. Rudraksha beads have been worn by the yogis of India for thousands of years to maintain health and to gain spiritual empowerment.

About 120 years ago, a road was being built from Kuala Lumpur to Kuantan. Many trees were felled to make way for the oncoming road. As one particular rudraksha tree was being cut, the tree began to bleed as if it was wounded. Many of the workers observed the bleeding of the tree, and immediately stopped work. Immediately one of the Hindu workers went into a trance, and declared that the tree should be spared. A British supervisor who was entrusted with the construction of the road refused to this suggestion. Suddenly, a child miraculously appeared on the trunk of the tree and disappeared into this mysterious tree. The British supervisor was overcome with amazement and changed his decision. The road was laid away from the tree and the rudraksha tree was spared. An old man who is believed to be a Murugan devotee planted a Vel at the base of the tree. After that, the tree became sacred and many of the Hindu workers started praying at that shrine.

It has been many years since the incident, and rudraksha tree is now dead. However the remains of the tree are preserved in inner sanctum of the temple. In 1998, a new temple was built which incorporated features of the rudraksha tree. The inner sanctum has a beautiful silver layering that resembles the original rudraksha tree. There are other shrines dedicated to Lord Bhairavar, Lord Idumban and Goddess Naga Amman. Another huge tree is now a focal point in this wondrous place of worship. Devotees pledge requests by placing a stone, coin or a lime on a yellow cloth. Subsequently they tie the cloth onto the tree and humbly utter a prayer. If the request is fulfilled, hence the vow will be fulfilled. The vow could range from donating to the temple, serving food to temple devotees or tying a miniature silver cradle on the vines of the tree. Some people even tie a baby doll onto this bestowing tree as a sign of gratitude. In addition, this temple is renowned for granting boons to deserving devotees. A lame boy had started walking after praying ardently at this temple. Lakshmi, a girl who was unable to speak has been miraculously cured of her disability. Another interesting story is the dream of the previous Head Priest Sri K.S. Ganapathy. In 1962, he had a dream of a Murugan yogi. It is rumoured that this yogi had lived at the location of the current temple about 200 years ago. In his dream, the yogi was having his bath in a nearby stream. After his bath, the yogi started walking towards the rudraksha tree. All of a sudden the yogi completely vanished into the tree. Appearing again in his dream, the yogi instructed the Head Priest to serve in this amazing temple. Since then the Head Priest Sri K.S. Ganapathy decided to serve this temple for as long as he could.

• Sivan Charas Cave, Pancing Hill

• Sivan Charas Cave, Pancing Hill. This Cave temple is located about 25km north of Kuantan and it is known for the 9 feet Shiva Linggam known as the Jala Linggerswarar and it is probably the tallest Shiva Linggam in South East Asia. 
• Water naturally drips on to the Lord from the roof of the limestone cave. It is indeed a must see for all Established majestically to tower its surrounding is the pristine Charas cave, the abode of an immensely mystical Sivalingam. Ascending the steel stairs, as though soaring towards Kailasam, Saivite devotees will bask in the splendor of Panching Sivan temple.  Lord Shiva, the dweller of Saivite hearts, resides in this mystical setting, encouraging devotees to rise into the realms of spirituality. The Sivalingam was brought to the cave in 1989 by Nachitram, a lawyer from Negeri Sembilan. At that time, the lawyer had visited Charas Cave, to a Buddhist Temple which was built nearly a hundred years ago. During his visit there, he met with a ‘Siddhar’ (Indian Sage) in the cave, who advised him to bring a Sivalingam and install in the cave. He had forgotten this spiritual instruction, but was gently reminded by a close associate. He immediately flew to India to purchase the black marble Sivalingam, and got it shipped to Malaysia. Upon returning it to Panching, he was informed by the Buddhist temple that there was never a presence of an Indian man in the caves. It is believed is that there are several Indian sages who meditate in the cave, but are concealed to the public, however manifest occasionally to dispense spiritual guidance. Dr.Sethugavalar, the temple President, together with other noble Hindus arranged workers to haul the 9 feet tall Sivalingam to the entrance of the cave, an astonishing 150 feet up. From there, the Sivalingam had to be gradually rolled into the cave for distance of another 100 meters for installation, and was placed facing north. The temple committee sought the assistance of a leading temple builder in the country, Sthapati Thannirmalai. The sthapati came to the temple and advised the temple committee that the position of the Sivalingam is currently facing north, but would be more auspicious if facing east. He also mentioned that there should be a Bramapaham for the Shivalingam. After carrying out the sthapati’s instructions, the temple committee arranged a Maha Kumbabhishegam on 8th June 2008 with the participation of 2,000 devotees. 
• Ir.A.Sivabalan, a contractor by profession and also an expert numerologist, had been giving advice on numerology, changing the karmic patterns of many people. Due to this, he accumulated some of the karmic vibrations of other individuals, and was advised to seek the blessings of Lord Shiva. Twice he had tried to enter Lord Shiva’s temple, but was unsuccessful, obstructed by heavy karmic hindrances. Then, the mystical Lord Shiva from Panching temple appeared in a vision to Ir.A.Sivabalan. In this revelation, he saw a dazzling Sivalingam up in cave on a hill nearby Kuantan. He inquired from his friends on the whereabouts of a Shiva Temple in cave near Kuantan. He was informed there was a temple in a hill cave in Panching, which is in close proximity to Kuantan. Ir.A.Sivabalan immediately visited Panching cave. Upon arriving he knew this was the location he witnessed in his vision a few months ago. With an enormous spiritual resolve, Ir.A.Sivabalan brought his from Selangor workers to Charas cave in to renovate the Shiva Temple including erecting a steel staircase structure leading up to the entrance of the cave. The Steel Staircase alone was built at an estimated cost of RM150,000
• Many devotees have witnessed ‘Shweta Nag’ (white cobra) around the vicinity of this temple, and even on top of the Shivalingam. ‘Shweta Nag’ are supposed to be great devotees of Lord Shiva. This holy cave has a number of natural images, including a five faced ‘naga' (holy snake) on the roof of the cave, with water trickling from its mouth, dripping continuously onto the holy Shivalingam. Also evident is a formation of Lord Ganesha. At present the temple has daily poojas and is open daily from 9.00am to 5.00pm. Celebrated grandly are the twice a month Pradosha fast, and the yearly Maha Shivaratri.

Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple -Tebrau Johor Bahru 

The Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Glass Temple is a major Hindu temple as well as one of the oldest temples in Tebrau, Johor Bahru, Malaysia. It is also one of the state's tourist attraction. The temple was listed in the Malaysian Book of Records as the first and only glass temple in the nation on 12 May 2010.
History

The temple, one of Johor Bahru’s oldest Hindu temples, is situated next to the railway tracks between Jalan Tun Abdul Razak and Jalan Mohd Taib (or close to the Tebrau Highway). It started in 1922 as a simple shelter on land presented by the Sultan of Johor.

In 1991, Sri Sinnathamby Sivasamy, current temple chairman and chief priest, also known as Guru Bhagawan Sittar inherited the administration of the temple from his father. He is the inspiration and driving force behind the temple. The Guru made a commitment to rebuild the temple upon inheriting it from the humble hut it once was. In spite of difficulties and challenges, the temple was rebuilt and officially reopened in 1996.

Rebuilding in Glass 

The Guru had the inspiration to rebuild the temple in glass during one of his trips to Bangkok. He was in a tuk-tuk (auto-rickshaw) inBangkok when he saw a light shining like a diamond, some 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) away. The driver told him that it was a wat (temple). When he went there, he found that it was the glass artwork at the temple entrance that had caught his eyes.

He was amazed that a small glass artwork could capture his attention from a vast distance. This inspired him to use this technique in the Arulmigu Sri Rajakaliamman Temple. He believed a temple fully embellished with impressive glass artwork will attract local devotees and visitors from the world over.

Transformation of the temple with glass fittings started in 2008 and was completed in October 2009. Since then, it has become one of the state's major tourist attractions.

Architecture 

Light from crystal chandeliers is reflected on doors, pillars, walls and ceilings in a bright blaze that’s quite blinding initially. At least 90 per cent of the temple is embellished by a mosaic of 300,000 pieces of red, blue, yellow, green, purple and white glass.

The centrepiece in the Athma Lingam sanctuary is a lotus for Lord Shiva, on which devotees can pour rose water and perform their prayers. Guru says this special sanctuary is the first in Malaysia to be designed with walls that are fully covered with 300,000 mukni Rudraksha beads from Nepal.

At a glance, the walls appear to have an unusual embossed texture. Each Rudraksha bead is embedded in the walls with a chanted prayer.

The fully air-conditioned temple has a cafe that serves vegetarian meals for special events, and a function hall in an adjoining building.

Sculptures

There are 10 gold-finished sculptures close to the ceiling. Of the two figures on the left, one appears to be lying down and the other crawling, while the one on the far right seems to be reclining too. These sculptures portray the cycle of life, from birth, youth, adulthood, to old age and death.

There are 10 white marble statues standing 120 centimetres (47 in) tall each. According to the name plaques, these are Gautama Buddha, Guru Nanak Dev Ji, Sai Baba and Mother Teresa. The Guru believes that these are messengers of God, and visitors of other faiths will be happy to see them here.

Location and Opening Hours 

The temple, located in 22 Lorong 1, Jalan Tebrau, Johor Baru, is accessible through Jalan Tun Abdul Razak and the lane that borders Gim Shew Building. Car and coach parking is available and there’s also a shoe storage service.

It is open for devotees from 7am to 10pm daily, while visiting hours for tourists are between 1pm and 5pm.

Om Sri Anjaneyar Aalayam, Jalan Pantai, Port Dickson.

This famous temple had started off in the year 1954 as a shrine for a local warrior. The shrine was constructed by members of the Malaysian army. At the same time, Hindu army personnel decided to construct a statue for Lord Anjaneyar at that shrine. At that point of time, the shrine was located by the side of a mountain, and was surrounded by dense jungle. Due to remoteness of the area, there was no supply of water and electricity. Devotees who had come to pray at the shrine would return before sunset, as it was dangerous to travel through the jungle at night.

The distinctive feature in this temple is that the statue of Lord Anjaneyar had turned his direction, facing the Straits of Malacca. Lord Anjaneyar’s statue is believed to be looking in the direction of Sri Lanka. The reason Lord Anjaneyar had turned his head was due to the slaughter that was occurring in the shrine. Meat offerings together with intoxicating liquors were being served to other deities in the shrine, and this offended Lord Anjaneyar. This took place in the year 1996, and was recorded by a foreign photographer. The photographer had earlier taken photos of the shrine, and went again to the shrine to take additional photos. He was stunned at the change of Lord Anjaneyar’s head and immediately informed the local dailies. The practice of slaughtering poultry, serving alcohol, séances at the shrine was stopped, and the presence of Lord Anjaneyar has grown stronger.

The presence of Lord Anjaneyar is very much a vocal point in this powerful temple. Several devotees have seen an apparition of Lord Hanuman meditating in this temple. He was attired in a white veshti, had long hair and a muscular body. Once, a devotee from Port Dickson had come to pray at the temple during Hanuman Jayanthi. He suddenly became ecstatic to witness Lord Anjaneyar flying above the temple. Lord Hanuman was soaring in circles above the temple and was armed with a mace. This indicates that the presence of Lord Hanuman is ever in attendance in this place of worship.

Durgai Ambal Lukut was started in the early 1890’s by establishing a shrine at an ‘Arasamaram’. It was frequented by Indian plantation workers that were residing in nearby plantations. As these workers faced numerous problems such as diseases, financial constraints and social isolation, they prayed to Goddess Ambal for spiritual relieve. After the First World War, the rubber prices had risen. Therefore many devotees contributed their share of wealth to establish a temple in honour of Goddess Ambal. A well-known priest was asked to perform the consecration ceremony of the temple. The priest advised the temple committee to place a statue of an 18 hand Durga Amman, after receiving a spiritual instruction upon entering the temple premise.

Many unique spiritual experiences have occurred at this temple. Some time ago a taxi driver had picked up an unusual passenger at 4.30 am. The passenger was dressed in a dazzling white sari and decked with gold jewellery. The taxi driver asked the passenger whether it was safe to travel with so much jewellery, but the passenger laughed and stated that she was fearless. The passenger asked to be dropped in front of the temple, and immediately vanished. Soon after this incident, the taxi driver's business started to prosper and he has acquired a large amount of wealth. There are many other devotees that have received the grace of the residing deity. A devotee who was retarded always prayed to the Goddess Ambal, and participated in Durga ‘puja’. Due to her devotion, her ailment was alleviated and is now happily married. Also, the beauty of this devotee has increased manifold, conceivably by the ‘shakti’ (spiritual energy) of the Goddess Ambal.

An auspicious ceremony is held in this temple during the month of ‘Adi’, whereby a 10 day 'tiruvila' (celebration) is held. The spiritual energy of Goddess Ambal is at her peak, and all her devotees can feel the electrifying energy surrounding the temple. At night, the temple priests hear ‘salangai oli’ (ankle bells sound) around the temple, signifying the presence of Goddess Ambal.

Kortumali Pilayar (Jalan Pudu)

The Sri Ganesar Temple to be in existence for more than 100 years. Around 1987 this was a small temple with zinc shed where Lord Ganesar was housed.. In 1897, an Indian gardener started a shrine for Lord Ganesha in an orchard of a British official's residence. Wagner Durai, as he was popularly known initially served in Malaya as a senior police official, and later as a lawyer. As the shrine started becoming more popular with its surrounding inhabitants, the Indian gardener decided to install a bell to announce auspicious timings. The sound emitting from the bell annoyed Wagner. He boldly informed his worker to remove the bells, or he would have to demolish the shrine. As soon as he had uttered this sentence, he had become paralysed. Soon after, the gardener had a dream in which Lord Ganesha instructed him to conduct a prayer for Wagner Durai and smear vibuthi (holy ash) onto Wagner's legs and hands. The gardener did as he was instructed, and Wagner soon recovered. Wagner subsequently started praying at this benevolent shrine and contributed towards the construction of the temple. 

The temple is built on a sloping ‘moona muchandi’ (3 adjoining corners) thereby making it extremely powerful. Moreover this is the only temple in the world that conducts ‘sankha puja’ (conch shell puja) twice daily throughout the year. This propitious puja was initiated in the year 1939 at this temple. The twisting formation of a ‘sankhu’ enables tirtham (holy scented water) to flow spirally before bathing Lord Ganesha. As the ‘tirtham’ is infused with the chanting of Hindu mantras, together with the hydraulic push through the ‘sankhu’, this facilitates the potency of this ceremony. The conch-shell is said to be the abode of ‘devas’ (celestial beings). Therefore ‘sankha puja’ is considered most auspicious in Hindu rituals, and will promote the health, wealth and happiness of its participants. The glory of this temple is further enhanced by the gold 'garba graham' (entrance)at the main sanctum. Gold has the highest spiritual vibration according to Hindu scriptures, therefore this metal is used to channel 'shakti' (divine energy).

The temple had acquired its name, Court Hill Ganesar as the previous high court was adjacent to the temple. Most lawyers who had represented clients at this court would pray at this temple for a favourable outcome. If the verdict was favourable, the lawyers would contribute towards the upkeep of the temple in gratitude. Also there is a 'vilvam' (bael) tree in the temple itself. The tree has been in the temple since inception and is also a focal point in the temple. Devotees who circumbulate the temple will stroke the bark of the tree, and then proceed to prostrate before Lord Ganesha.

Sri Sakthi Karpaga Vinagar (Brickfields)

Lord Karpaga Vinayagar is the main deity in this spiritual fortress. The other deities in the temple include Kaliambal, Balamurugan, Nagar, Agasthiyar and the Navagrahas. The statue of Karpaga Vinayagar in this temple is different from the customary thirty-six images of Vinayagar. Lord Ganesha is identified as ‘Karpaka Vinayagar’ here after the mythological tree named ‘karpakam’ that fulfills all the wishes of devotees. Also, when we worship Lord Karpaka Vinayagar, we are worshiping Lord Shiva as well. This is because Lord Karpaka Vinayagar holds a Shiva lingam in the right hand. The statue of Karpaga Vinayagar was carved from a single granite block in Tamil Nadu, and was designed by the illustrious chief priest from Pillaiyarpatti temple, Karpaka Vinayakar or Desi Vinayaka Pillaiyar is the presiding deity here, and he is portrayed with two arms and a trunk curled towards his right in the valampuri mode.  Scholars say that Lord Vinayaga is the Lord of wisdom, which is confirmed by the head of elephant in the shape of sacred mantram "OM". When we draw a line from the broken left tusk, starting upward, then turning left to wards right ear and after passing through the bended left tusk up to the tip of trunk, Tamil alphabet "O" appears. The Lingam in the hand indicates the alphabet "M". Together they form "OM". This is confirmed by the lord here "Valamburi Pillayar". As Vinayagar satisfies the wishes of his devotees like Karpagam tree, he is also known "Karpaga Vinayagar". Here Lord Vinayaga appears with 2 hands unlike in other places where he is seen with 4 hands. Also he is seen seated without Angusapasam, with his legs folded and stomach not touching the Asanam in the form of "Artha Padma" Asanam. Address: No.199, Jln Berhala, Brickfields, 50470 Kuala Lumpur.

Sri Maha Nagoor Kaliamman Temple - Dengkil 

The estate workers from Madingley Estate, after a gruelling laborious day, clustered together with their family members. Many were melancholy, nostalgic having voyaged perilous seas from their native land, only to find themselves slaving arduously under hazardous conditions. Their leader summoned them and convened to discuss a solution to soothe their inner despair. As many of the workers came from the same village, hence their clan’s ‘Kula Deivam’ (ancestral deity) was Kaliamman. Communally they agreed to establish a shrine for Kaliamman, to spiritually tend their emotional wounds, shield them against misfortune, and guide them through tumultuous situations. A ‘trisulam’ was placed on sanctified ground, and the sacred rituals began.

Years later, traders from the distant shores of Nagoor had settled in this locale to expand their business throughout the country. Legend has it that one of principal temple builders was a Nagoor businessman. The businessman’s first son had died due to a prevalent disease, and had to be buried immediately. However, they were tremendously concerned due the widely held belief that black magic practitioners used the corpse of firstborn infant males for sorcery rituals. Their entire family soon gathered at the Kaliamman shrine, begging her to resolve their wretched predicament. The heavenly mother soon descended upon the mortal consciousness of a devotee utilised as an intermediary and calmly instructed them an appropriate burial site to negate all negative intentions. In gratitude, the businessman and his clan renovated the shrine and established the manifestation of other guardian deities as well.

The mother goddess graces all her devotees that pay obeisance to her and showers them with divine tenderness but occasionally dangles her wrathfulness to the undesirable. A group of construction workers had broken into the temple on a silky dark night, and placed the head of a buffalo in front of the inner sanctum. They started reciting harsh, malevolent incantations, with the intention of deceiving the heavenly goddess to perform their bidding. As the gory ritual peaked at its zenith, Kaliamman appeared before them, and shrieked in a gruesome voice avowing their conduct will be their downfall. Helter-skelter, all the men ran as fast as their heels could take them. The next day, they sent a representative to beg forgiveness from the heavenly goddess, as they were fearful of the goddess’s fury.

  

Many devotees have blissfully beheld the ‘’lila’ (divine play) of the goddess. A nocturnal devotee, who used to meditate near the inner sanctum, witnessed a vision of the goddess, blessing him with an ecstatic smile. A penniless man had come to temple in complete desolation and had requested the goddess for relief. After attending prayers regularly at the temple, the penniless man’s financial adversity drastically changed after winning a godsend windfall. An ardent lady devotees who had contracted cancer, had a malignant lump in her stomach. She then attended prayers at the temple and requested lime from the inner sanctum which she slept with under her pillow. She miraculously recovered from this deadly ailment despite her doctor’s diagnosis that she would succumb to the disease within a year. A project manager assigned to tear this temple down could not perform the task, due to all bulldozing machinery breaking down in close proximity to the temple. Subsequently he graciously prayed for the goddess’s assent, and was blessed with an intricate spiritual instruction by the goddess on the temple relocation. Contact: Mr.Arunasalam (Chairman) - 012-2905204

This petite yet elegant temple has a large following of dedicated Lord Vishnu devotees. It was built in 1964 by of JKR (Public Works Department) workers who helped acquire the land and build the structure of the current temple. The temple follows the Panjarathra agamic method of serving Lord Vishnu, and his consort Goddess Mahalaxmi. The temple has a large and powerful Anjeneyar and Garuda at the entrance. They welcome devotees, and protect the vicinity of the temple. The unique reclining position of Lord Vishnu, is an expression of the deity at the Sri Rangam temple, Tamil Nadu. Lord Vishnu is seated on Adishesha, a five headed serpent who is the king of serpents. The chief priest of this temple, Gurukal Ramanuja regularly expounds quotes from the Ramayana and Mahabharatham to temple devotees. Also he involves devotees in temple ceremonies and prayers, and educates them in the importance of devotion and faith. For instance during the spiritual month of Marghazhi, prayers for Goddess Andal were conducted. A beautiful thulasi garland was carried around the temple, along with hundreds of unmarried lady devotees. These unmarried ladies chanted the Vishnu mantra “OM NAMO NARAYANAYA". This created a wonderful vibration that harmonised the emotions of the attending devotees. During other spiritual occasions such as Krishna Jayanti, the chief priest Ramanuja would tell stories about Lord Krishna and his playful antics towards his devotees. Towards midnight, he would then instruct the devotee to chant Lord Krishna’s Mahamantra. After this was done, a fabulous blue icing cake would be served to Lord Krishna as prasadam. The devotees at this temple have pride in their temple as most sacred occasions have an active spiritual participation. This is indicated by the family type affair when spiritual occasions are celebrated in this sacred temple. Many devotees feel blessed as they are involved in the ceremony, and not sidelined by religious ceremonies.

This Vaishnavaite Temple was built during the year 1964 to meet the increasing number of Vaishavaite devotees around the Simpang Air Hitam area. It was planned in 1964 by a group of workers from the nearby West Country estate, JKR quarters area and Prang Besar estate. My investigations revealed one Mr. Arunachalam and Mr. Muniandy were instrumental in the temple building process. Perhaps there may be others which we do not have records. Madam Ramayee a long term resident of West Country estate gave us some useful information regarding the origin of this temple. The JKR workers managed to get this land, lot 851 from the state Government and the workers through the Malaysian Indian Congress (MIC) got RM 15,000 from the Selangor State Government under the administration of Menteri Besar Dato Hormat Rafie to put up the temple. JKR approved the building plans and the structure in 1967. During 1977 this area was earmarked for major development for institutions of higher learning and the Lembaga Letrik Negara’s training institution staffs took over the administration of the temple. Notable to mention a few names who developed the temple from 1978 are Mr. Maniam from Prang Besar estate, Dr. M.P. Krishnan, from Kajang Klinik, Mr. S. Ramanuja Muniandy and Mr. N. Padmanathan from Lembaga Letrik Negara

The Temple and its Deities

The temple is a Vaishnavite temple following the Panjarathra agamic method of serving Lord Narayana. This panjarathra method of worship was narrated by Lord himself to Brahma for 5 nights, hence the name of Panjarathra. THIS IS THE ONLY TEMPLE IN MALAYSIA WHERE LORD NARAYANA IS IN A RECLINING POSITION ON THE 5 HEADED SERPANT ADTHISHESHA. Lord Renganath has 16 different types of reclining position and in this temple, he take up the Anantha Sayana position. This is described as a yogic position called Yoga Nitra or “Conscious Awareness” that is pretending to be asleep but alert to the happenings in the universe. The 3-foot statue is solid grade one granite sculptured and brought in from Tamil Nadu during the year 1964. Lord Renganath, the father for all Vaishnavaites remains young, evergreen and with an infectious gentle smile that can capture even a non-believer.
