Dharma Sastha Ashtotharam

Dharma Sastha  Ashtotharam

Translated by
P.R.Ramachander

(Dharma Sastha   , the son of Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu as Mohini  was being worshipped  for thousands of years in several temples in Tirunelveli s district of Tamil Nadu . Lord OParsurama is supposed to have consecrated  eight temples of Sastha   for the protection of Kerala.,Initially it is  possible that  he was not referred   to as Lord Ayyappan or  Lord Manikandan or even as Lord Ayyanar  .He was married to Poorna and Pushkala . With   the  temple of Lord Ayyappa  of Sabari mountain  becoming famous  as the adopted son of king of Pandalam , the Sastha temples of Tamil Nadu perhaps started   referring him to Lord Ayyappan )
