Makara Jothi - This is More than the wonders of the world. Every year, on the day of makara sankaranthi, Lord Ayyappa gives us his darshan in the form of Jothi [Jothi is a bright form of light]. Year after year, the crowd is increasing at the holy sabarimala temple, to watch this miracle. It is believed that the lord came to be born as manikanda, in order to kill mahishi. The child was brought up by king rajasekara. At the early teen age, the lord killed the mahishi and advised the king to build a temple at the hills of sabari. The lord also gave the boon to the king that every year, he will appear in the form of bright light [Jothi] on the Kaantha malai. And so, every year, on this particular day, the jyothi appears on the kaantha malai.
On this day, the jewels of the lord [Thiruvaabharanam] are taken from the palace of king rajasekara, to the holy temple. through out the whole jorney, you can witness an eagle flying on top of the procession. It is believed that the lord Garuda [Vehicle of Lord vishnu], comes and ensures that the jewels are taken to the temple without any problems.
Just a few minutes before the makara jyothi, a twinkling star appears near the kaantha malai, which is kinda signal that the jyothi is going to appear in a few minutes.
The makara jyothi, appears on the kaantha malai, like a flicker, shows itself for a couple of seconds and then its gone. It happens for 3 times. The whole thing gets over within couple of minutes. It is a wonder to watch the holy makara jyothi.
By gods grace, i have seen the makara jothi a couple of times. I pray to get more opportunities to go to the holy hills and get the blessings of the lord.
