(Goddess Meenakshi(One with fish like eyes-fish is the emblem of Pandya kingdom)  is a presiding deity  of the   great Madurai  Meenakshi  temple. The city of Madurai was found  by  Kulasekara  Pandyan .His son and the king   was Malaya Dwaja Pandian.His queen was  Kanchanamala. They did not have any children and conducted several Yagas for getting one.Once from the sacrificial fire a three  tyear girl with three  breasts came out and sat on the lap  of Kanchana Malai ,Malayadwaja  was sad that he did not get a son.Then a divine voice told him to name her as THatathakai and bring her up just like a son and it also told him that her third breast would disappear   once she  comes across the Man whom she   would marry.The king obeyed the divine command  and taught THatathakai  the art of war and ruling the country. Later  she became the queen of Madurai .She started fighting war and conquering  other lands,Once she reached Kailasa abd Lord Shiva   came before her as  Lord Sundareswara and her third breast disappeared . She then fell in love with lord Shiva and got married to him.

    In the Madurai temple the Goddess Meenakshi  holds the pride of place .She has a crescent on her hair . holds a parrot  in her left hand  and a lotus flower on her right hand.Adhi Shankara  in Meenakshi Pancha rathnam describes   her  in an enchanting, devotion  dripping way as follows:-

“I always bow before that Meenakshi, who is the treasure house of mercy,

Who shines like billions of rising suns,

Who wears a shining crown,

Who has reddish lips like the Bimba fruits,

Who has shining rows of sparkling teeth,

Who decorates herself with reddish silk,

Whose feet is worshipped by Vishnu, Brahma and Indra,

Who is the consort Of Lord Shiva,

And who is the personification of sacred truth.   1

I always bow before that Meenakshi, who is the treasure house of mercy,

Who shines in a crown decorated by garland of pearls,

Whose face shines similar to the full moon,

Who wears tinkling anklets full of gems,

Who shines like a  fully opened lotus,

Who blesses her devotees with all their wishes,

Who is the daughter of the mountain,

And who is served by Goddess Saraswathi and Lakshmi.  2

I always bow before that Meenakshi, who is the treasure house of mercy,

Who is the sacred knowledge of Sri Vidhya,

Who dwells in the left side of Lord Shiva,

Who shines with the sacred sound “Hreem”,

Who is in the central dot of the holy design of Sri Chakra,

Who is the lady presiding over the court of Lord Shiva,

Who is the mother of Lord Subramnya and Ganesa,

And who is the enchanter of the universe.  3

I always bow before that Meenakshi, who is the treasure house of mercy,

Who is the consort of Lord Sundaresa,

Who removes fears,

Who grants knowledge,

Who is purest of the pure,

Who is black in colour,

Whose feel are worshipped by lotus flowers,

Who is the sister of Lord Narayana,

Who enjoys music from Veena, drum and flute,

And who is the goddess of varied aspects.     4

I always bow before that Meenakshi, who is the treasure house of mercy,

Who stays in the hearts of different yogis and saints,

Who grants different wealth and occult powers,

Whose feet shine with various flowers ,

Who is worshipped by Lord Narayana,

Who is the all pervasive sound of the holy spirit,

Who is greater than the great,

And who is the meaning of various philosophies.   5.
