This ancient temple is in the beautiful village
of Chelamattam in Ernakulam district. Apart from Vadakkan Chowa Bhagavathy, Sree Chamundeswari is also consecrated here. Chamundeswary is consecrated in the form in which she
destroyed the Asuras, Chanda and Munda. Hence, offerings for the destruction of
what causes impediments in life are important in this temple. It was a family
temple in the beginning, and the elder male members of the family used to offer
worship. It had the patronage of the Thozhani royal family. Now it has been renovated and is under the
Puzhakkara Devaswam. On Friday, the Kavusarppa puja is offered for
more
clearing the difficulties in life caused by the
position of planets in one’s horoscope. Offering thali and silken cloth
is also another important offering.
