Summary[edit]

Description
English: Mother of Ravana perfomed Sivalinga Pooja on a daily basis. One day, She was

worried as she could not get a Sivalingam to perform her Pooja. In order to make his mohter happy, Ravana came to Thirukoneswaram which was know as "Thedchana kailasam" and prayed that he be bestowed with a Sivalingam. Since there was no immediate response from Loar Koneswara, Ravana got frustrated and attempted to lift the mountain. As he could not move the mountain, he tried to cut it with his sword. He was punished by the Lord for his wrongdoing. Ravana, an ardent devetee of Lord Koneswara, made an improvised veena instrument with one of his ten heads, muscles and hands, and sang "Sama Vetha" hymns and appealed for Lord's pardon. Lord Koneswara was very much pleased with his devotion, pardoned him and offered a Sivalingam. Era of great Lanka King Ravana was belived to be during the "Ramayana" period, Before Christ. The "Konesar" rock that was cut by Ravana is still popularly

known as "RAVANA CUT".
