(One of the greatest Rama temple of Kerala is Thiruvilwamala. The God is consecrated below  a Vilwa tree  and is called  Sri Vilwadrinathan..When my friend Smt Geetha Narayanan send this stotra , initially  I thought it was referring to lord Shiva (lord of Vilwa) but when I started understanding it, I could see it was a prayer addressed to Lord Rama. You can read about this great temple in http://rajathathaskeralatemples.blogspot.com/2011/11/thiruvilwamala-ramabhadra-swamy-temple.html  )
