When we hear Navapashanam, Palani immediately comes to mind. But Chennai has a lesser-known gem where Bhagwan Murugan is worshipped in Navapashanam form.
Believed to be associated with the Siddhar tradition of Bhogar, Navapashanam is traditionally described as a sacred combination of nine herbal and mineral substances, revered for its spiritual and healing significance.
A simple temple, yet a rare and spiritually fascinating presence in the city.
Location: Hastinapuram, near Chrompet, Chennai, Tamil Nadu
