Get Well Anjaneya

 "Get Well" Anjaneya is an intriguing temple with a perplexing name. The temple was built within the complex of Get Well Hospital, established in Tirunelveli Junction during the 1990s. Although the hospital ceased functioning, the temple persevered and became a famous city landmark.

This modern-day temple is well-maintained and faces west, with Anjaneya as the presiding deity. Unlike the usual depiction of Anjaneya with folded hands (Anjali mudra), he is portrayed holding his mace in his left hand while his right hand is posed in the Abhaya Mudra. Within the same sanctum, one can also find the rare sight of Maha Ganapati.



The bronze image of Anjaneya in the temple shows him with four arms. He holds a discus and conch in his upper arms while his lower arms are in the abhaya mudra and holding a mace. This unique pose adds to the temple's distinctiveness.

Apart from Anjaneya, the temple houses beautiful bronze images of Rama, along with Sita, Lakshmana and Hanuman. Additionally, there are dedicated shrines for Kanaka Maha Lakshmi and Dhanvantri. On the prakara wall, you can find the stucco image of Hayagreeva.

The temple's serene location, pristine maintenance, and various alankaras (decorative adornments) for the deity create a positive vibe and atmosphere of tranquility. It has become a cherished destination where spirituality and devotion abound.

Happy travelling.
