Project Details:
Project Name: Viswakarma
Industrial Training Center (ITC)
Project Location: Nakkalmadam,
Thirupathisaram P.O., Nagercoil, Kanya Kumari District
Project Estimation: 1,25,00,000
Rupees
Fund Invested: 40,00,000 Rupees
Fund Needed: 85,00,000 Rupees
Project Construction Status:
Building reached roof level, concrete roof yet to come; work is getting slow
because of adequate fund flow.
NB: All the above estimation is made based on project deadline Mid-off of 2014. The estimated amount might increase if the project is not over by end of 2014.
Why we need Viswakarma ITC?
We are interested to spend more
money in yearly celebrations, to build temples, community meeting etc but this
college project is a life time achievement for each and every Viswakarmas. Let
us take an example for the Viswarkarma annual celebration, we are collecting
around 30 lakhs from all Viswakarama people and we spent the entire amount on
the same day with only memories left at the end of the day. At the same time, if we
show some interest to build this college will remain for centuries, it will be
big credit for our people.
If we need a seat for our children we are
running and requesting for other community college, finally paying some
donation we will get a seat. If we have our own community college we no need to
request anyone, no need for any donation and their also employment opportunity
for people who are interested in lecturing jobs.
During function we give food to
satisfy the invited people; that’s the only thing people come for the ‘enough’
mindset. Likewise, if we give education
for one person, it is going to a benefit for not only that person, it is a
benefit for that whole family.
“There is nothing in
this world equals to giving an education for a person.” – Sivathanu N.
“Education is not
preparation for life; education is life itself.” – John Dewey.
“The purpose of
education is to replace an empty mind with an open one.” – Malcolm Forbes.
Special thanks to Abel Premanth, Jenslin Vino, Samuthra Rajan, Master Muthu and Master Viswa.
How we raised the fund?
- We started this Viswakarma ITC with three plans to arrange fund:
- Getting share only from Viswarkarma people. (Each Share 10,000)
- Denotation from big shots in our community.
- Name inscription in building – 25,000
As of now we have around 700 share holders. Many people are
not aware of this college project, as a Viswakarma what we expect to spread
this project to all Viswakarma people.
We learned from this
society;
We are earning from
this society;
Now it is time for us
to return something for our society;
- Sivathanu N
Future plan to raise the fund:
- Spread our community college project to our friends and relatives who lives nearby to get new shares.
- From the 700 share holders, we need to identify the single shareholder and ask them to introduce one more new share holder or suggest them to buy one more share.
- Support our community to grow.
- Identify our community big shot people and explain our project.
NB: This video was prepared for
our ‘Viswakarma Friends Association’ 31st Anniversary function held on 4th August 2013.
“Support our Community; Help our
community people.”
Please help us to bring our community college
dream to come into reality. Prove our community people are also strong here in
society.
We have ‘Youth Committee (இளைஞர் அணி)’ to speed up this college project; I am also a member of this committee.
Every month 1st week or 2nd week we arrange ‘Action
Committee’ meeting and discuss about the project updates and new plans to
uplift the fund.
We request each and every one to share your innovative ideas
to raise the fund. We also have ‘Women
Committee (மகளிர் அணி)’ lead by Mrs. Shivani Jeevanantham.

Saduragiri Shivan malai - My Trekking Experience
Sathuragiri Hill is also known as
Sivanmalai/Sitharmalai, the whole mountain is in square (Chathuram) in shape so
the name called as Sathuragiri. When I research in internet, I got another
meaning to add here that is Sathuragiri came from Chathur (4) Veda (Vedas) Giri
(Hill), where all the four Vedas met and formed the hill.
Sathuragiri is the Abode of God
which falls under the Western Ghat ranges. It is really a great place to worship
lord Shiva in his place. It is believed that 18 sithars (Agasthiyar, Nandi Devar, Thirumoolar, Bogar, Konkanavar, Machamuni, Gorakhnathar,
Sattaimuni, Sundaranandar, Ramadevar, Kudambai, Karuvoorar, Idaikadar, Kamalamuni,
Valmiki, Pathanjali, Dhanvanthiri & Pambatti) are still available in
Sathuragiri and worshipping lord Shiva. People in Sathuragiri said that sithars
might come in any form or they might near them but we cannot see easily them.
We cannot enter the hill without their permission, before climbing the rock
pray all the 18 sithars and start your journey.
It was my first time visit to
Sathuragiri but for my dad it was fourth trip, I tried several times to visit
but only Oct 5th I got an opportunity to see lord Shiva, only now I
received approval from God to reach his place. I was surprised to see 6 years
old kid to 65 years old people climbing the hill, the highlight is few
physically challenged people also travelled along with us. While seeing these definitely
we won’t feel any difficulty to climb the hill, our self confidence will get
increase to reach the temple.
One physically challenged person finished his worship and getting down from hill
During full moon and new moon devotees visit the temples and pay their penance and have darshan. Pilgrims will climb the mountain only in groups and not in solo, since the forest is full of animals. Those who have strong heart and health are advised to climb up. The new moon during the month of July-August (Aadi Amavasai) attracts about 10 to 15 lacs devotees who come there to have the darshan of the Lord Mahalingam.
Every year my dad will go to Sathuragiri
for Navarathi festival, Aanandavalli Amma Kollu will be setup for ten days.
This year I got an opportunity to join along with my dad. We started from
Nagercoil on Friday night at 11pm by Nagercoil – Kumli bus. We reached
Sirivilliputhur around 4am early morning; from there we need to catch local bus
to reach Watrap (vatrairuppu). From Watrap, we have mini bus as
well as share auto service to reach Thaani Parai which is the entrance of
Muulikai Vanam (Sathuragiri Hill Entrance). While reaching the entrance, lot of
instructions mentioned to follow during the trip. One among them is we are
advised to enter only between 6am to 6pm, the real reason behind this instruction
is lot of wild animals are available in the hills, if we travel in night it is
highly dangerous for us, but people won’t listen to this.
After entering at the foot hills,
we can see
- Aseervadha Vinayagar
- RajaKali Amma
- Vana Petchi Amma
- Karuppasamy
Of these, Paechi Amma and
Karuppasamy were installed by Sithars for guarding the southern side of the
Hill.
Aseervadha Vinayagar & RajaKali Amma Temple (Foothill)
Vana Petchi Amma & Karruppan Swami Temple (Foothill)
Then on the way to Sathuragiri
Shiva temple, we have:
- Gorakkar Cave
- "Irattai Lingam" or Sankaran Narayan Lingams
- Vana Durgai Amma
- Pilavadi Karuppasamy
Gorakkar Cave
"Irattai Lingam" or
Sankaran Narayan Lingams
Then we can reach Shri Sundara
Mahalingam Temple and have a good darshan.
Sundara Mahalingam Entrance (Thorana Vayil)
Sundara Mahalingam
Santhana Mahalingam Entrance (Thorana Vayil)
Santhana Mahalingam
After finishing darshan in Santana
Mahalingam temple, we need to walk more for 1.5 kms to reach ‘Vana Kali Temple.’
Due to time constraints, the
following places yet to see, I will plan it in my next Sathuragiri Trip.
- Vana Durga
- Oonjal Karuppan Swamy
- Korakkar Scripture Rock
- Vella Ganapathi (White colored Lord Ganesha)
- Nadu Kattu Ganapathi
- Naga Kanni Kavu
- Periya Mahalingam
- Thavasi Cave (It is said that Sithars are still there and one can enter only with their permission).

Thavasi Parai (Long Shot)
Thavasi Cave Entrance
Personally what I felt during the
trip is Sathuragiri is getting worst because of us; there is a well known
sentence in Tamil ‘மனுஷ ஜென்மம் எங்க காலடி எடுத்து வெச்சாலும் அந்த இடம் விளங்காது!’ it is 100% true because people
are not considering as holy trip instead thinking as ‘Tourist Place.’
Things to Remember:
- It is not advised to climb the hill, if you have any heart diseases or respiratory problems.
- Please discuss with your family doctor before planning for this trip.
- Please consider eco-friendly environment, already we made all possible damages to place where we are living, now only forest is remaining and it is our responsibility to save.
- Please try to follow the basic rules in hills, don’t use plastics, if you are using then don’t throw it in forest after your use.
- Don’t talk unnecessary things while climbing the hill instead try to tell ‘Om Namah Shivaya,’ lot of hurdles are available on the way, if you are not careful then it might pull you down.
- Don't leave your wastes on the hill which includes human waste also , consider it as a holy place.
- Be careful of your things, lot of monkey are there to rob your things, few human monkeys are also there if you carelessly kept your things and try to trace it again you won’t get it back.

NB: Sathuragiri is not the place to research; it is going to
be a highly dangerous place for researchers who do not have spiritual mentality.
I would like to thank god for making this trip successful.
