The proposed temple at Srirangapatna, would be a magnificent structure dedicated to the all powerful but benevolent and mother like form of Shakthi, Sri Samayapuram Mariamman. Under the guidance of our Guru, His Holiness Swami Sri Sureshwara Acharya, the Sri Samayapuram Mariamman Temple Trust has embarked on an auspicious mission of building a temple for the all-powerful mother, SRI SAMAYAPURAM MARIAMMAN, in Srirangapatna (near Mysore), Mandya She is depicted in a form that dazzles with the brilliance of a thousand suns, a diamond band on her head, golden hair, garlanded with fragrant flowers, covered with glittering jewelry and blessing her children with 'Ashta Bhujam' (eight hands). This fast was taken up for the benefit of mankind and in this form she assimilated the powers of 27 Stars (in the constellation) and the Navagrahas (the Nine Planets), emerging as SRI SAMAYAPURAM MARIAMMAN, an all-powerful but calm form, benevolent and merciful to all. The Goddess covered herself with flowers and undertook penance on the banks of river Cauvery, for twenty eight days, in a place called Samayapuram. The gods trembled and prayed for her to calm down. She destroyed Mahishasura after a nine day battle and this form of ferocity, the very existence of all the three worlds, was threatened. One of the most powerful forms of the supreme mother is that of Durga, a fierce form, emanating from the vital powers of all Gods. She is the supreme leader who supports the very existence of the universe by creating Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, who under her command, perform the cosmic duties. The scriptures have described the Divine mother as the creator of the universe and all the life forces.
