In the Selfless and Dedicated Service to Education by Ramakrishna Mission

With its historic temple and serene surroundings, Thirumukkudal Panchayat Uthiramerur in the State of Tamil Nadu is a place of cultural significance and natural beauty. It derives its name from the three rivers, Palar (Ksheera Nadhi), Vegavathi (Saraswathi) and Cheyyar (Bahu Nadhi) as they merge together at this place, thereby called sangam of three rivers (called mukkudal in Tamil). Here exists an ancient temple devoted to Narayana (Vishnu) which is said to be 1200 years old. Appan Venkatesa Perumal Temple.

The temple is located on the banks of the river giving a scenic view. It is located in Pazhaya Seevaram on one side of the river and Sri Appan Prasanna Venkatesa Perumal temple on the other bank of the river. The temple’s history dates back to at least the 9th century AD and has been associated with the Pallava monarch, Nripatungavarman. Historical inscriptions reveal that the temple enjoyed patronage from various rulers, including Raja Raja Chola 1, Rajendra Chola, and Veera Rajendra Chola. Interestingly, there is evidence of a Veda Pathashala (Vedic School) as seen in the inscriptions on the temple walls showing that this was an ancient Centre of Vedic studies and culture that once existed within the temple premises, which Ramakrishna Mission is now planning to revive in a modern form.

Ramakrishna Mission has received as donation nearly 28 acres of land in this holy place with the juxtaposition of rivers on the one side and hill on the other side—an ideal place for tapas (austerity), cultivation of knowledge (jnana/vidya charcha) and selfless service towards integrated rural development, because while the village embraces and is rooted in its ancient heritage and traditions, there is at the same time an urgent need to address the pressing issues concerning education (both ancient and modern), healthcare services, integrated rural development.
