Sri Rajarajeswari Alayam,Taman Sri Sentosa,Klang,Selangor

Raja Rajeswari is the presiding deity of Sri Chakra, She is the mother of love and grace. All sentient and insentient being are linked to, and dependent upon Her power for their existence, She is the personification of the Divine desire to create the universe and also the Divine desire to merge the creation back into the ultimate Bhraman. This two fold desire is the basis of love, the vivifying bond that ties the Creator and the created. She controls our minds and sensory organs and holds the key to transcendental knowledge; she resides on the top of the head (Sahasrara), and also the second chakra (Swadisthana).
She is having four hands and three eyes. She wields in her four hands the noose, the goad, sugar cane bow, and five flowered arrows. Her three eyes are the Sun, Moon and Fire representing the three triads in creation. Her crown is decorated with the crescent moon the symbol of divine delight. The goad is the symbol of power of knowledge, it is the wrath of fiery emotions by which the whole creation is spurred into activity. The noose represents strong determination and love by which She binds the whole creation. The sugar cane stem depicts the mind principle of man. The five flowered arrows are the five tanmatras i.s sound, touch, form, taste and smell- the source of the five elements. She is having three forms, the gross physical form (sthula sharira), subtle astral form, (sukshma sharira) and the causal archetypal form of the macrocosm and microcosmic creation.
When She is mediated upon, the ultimate energy, in the first and second chakra (Muladhara and Swadhisthana) the sadhaka (spiritual aspirant) is performing internal fire sacrifice. She emerges out of the lotus chakras as Kundalini the supreme power elevating the sadhaka.
The graceful Mother removes evil and develops goodness within all of us.
She is the power of Brahman; pure consciousness embodied. She is the bliss of ‘SAT-CHIT”



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.
