Mel Maruvathur Temple is situated in Kanchipuram district, almost ninety kilometres from Chennai, on the Chennai-Thiruchi National Highway. In Malsya Puranam, this place is referred to as ‘Siddhar Vanam’ (the forest, in which the siddhars dwell). On this soil, twenty one siddhars have attained jiva samadhi (liberation, or moksha). When we set our foot on this soil, we get the blessings of the Divine Mother Adi Parasakthi, our Adigalaar Amma, who is the incarnation of the Divine Mother, and all the siddhars, who have been living in this place.

This universe has been created by the Divine Mother (God). Everything in this universe belongs to Her. Still, the Divine Mother has chosen Adigalaar Amma as Her Son. The Divine Mother says in Her oracle that, Adigalaar Amma has all the good qualities to be chosen as Her own Son. ‘Adigalaar’ is the name, which has been given to our Amma by the Divine Mother. The name ‘Adigalaar’ means one, who deserves the love and respect of all. She has repeatedly said that, She resides inside Adigalaar Amma. The body alone is that of Adigalaar Amma. His soul is Adi Parasakthi Herself. This oracle clearly makes us understand that God and our Adigalaar Amma aren’t separate. They are one.

Amma is very simple in appearance. He is very merciful and kind-hearted. If we pray to Amma sincerely and faithfully, Amma helps us in different ways. It is the Divine Mother, who speaks to us through Adigalaar Amma. Hence, whatever our Amma says is an oracle from the Divine Mother. This is a fact proclaimed by the Divine Mother. Devotees come to see Amma from all around the globe. Everyone who comes to Amma with physical or mental problems, returns home with the consolation that Amma is there to take care of him or her, and that there is no need to worry anymore. Millions of people have had such experiences. Amma gives us innumerable chances to do service to the Divine Mother. Even a small service, which we do to God, brings us a great result.
