Book Description
About the Book
If time has a sound, it sounds like Keezhveeranam, one of the world’s greatest revealed site as also one of the least explored.
Every year, millions of tourists flock to the predictable splendors of Kanchipuram, Tanjore, Tiruvanamalai. Keezhveeranam remains a quaint village nestled amidst a handful of hamlets, in the state of Tamilnadu (India) just 40 km from Kanchipuram (Tamilnadu). Keezhveernam, literally means powerful land of west and its history dates back to the time of Divine Light. On the first impression, this quiet place does not feel like a holy land but it is this tangle of histories and enmity that reached a height and then slowly moved back into history to be forgotten makes Keezhveeranam such a compelling place to visit, as it was revealed to the author.
To pray at Keezhveeranam is to offer thanks for our short ‘me here.; to know that we too will merge one day and to respect how a Pillar of Fire can plant itself in the ground and not let go of the sky.
