Even though we agreed it was correct but it was strange as one of these people suggested us to buy from the nearby shop. We were advised that from next time we should buy the Golusu from outside with a proper receipt showing GST. On going back inside, we had to get receipt for archanai with Saree & Golusu.

No bill was provided & was asked to say it was purchased from this shop. The lady at this shop showed us few silver anklets varying from 28gms to 50 gms & length of the anklet is 11.5 inches. There were few people who looked to be managing the temple advised us to get the anklet from first shop to the right of the temple. As we reached the temple around 10.30 am alankaram was happening to amman & hence couldnt meet the priest. As weren't sure of the size and length we thought it was best to buy near temple itself. She was told that Anklet(Golusu) could be purchased from the pooja shop near temple itself. Its a very old and beautiful temple.My mom had a Golusu Prarthanai at this temple & contacted some person associated with this temple beforehand about this prarthanai. First visited Thirukadayur Sri Abhirami temple and then to Thirumeychur which was about 1.30 from Thirukadayur. Travelled to Sri Lalithambigai temple from Kumbakonam with my parents by car. Every Hindu should visit this temple atleast once in a lifetime.

Anyone who is visiting this temple for the first time, please visit during daytime to closely observe all the deities. There are Kshetra pureeshwarar and a Durgai sannidhi. Sage Agastyar composed Lalitha Navarathnamala here. So many devotees visiting this temple keep chanting this in front of Ambaal's sanctum sanctorum. by Hayagriva to Sage Agastyar )was said to have occurred (Upadesam). in praise of Ambaal describing her beauty in 1000 names. This is the Kshetra where Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam ( a sankrit hymn. Only after that many devotees start offering anklets to Ambaal. Till then no-one observed the sculpting expertise to the deity that there was just enough space around the two ankles of the deity to tie the anklet. Immediately that devotee fulfilled Her order. The pandit narrated that many years back Ambal appeared in the dream of a lady devotee who lives in Bengaluru and asked her to offer anklets to her in this temple. The Goddess is so beautiful seated on the Sri chakra with Abhaya haatha mudra. The location is amidst fields( a lovely sight). One of my favourite temples in Tamil Nadu.
