That is a very fascinating finding by Dr. Kalaikkovan. The description is superb .. we are able to visualise the icon with minutest details...
That is again dragging us to Vageesam - Laguleesam & Kapaligam topic.
Do you know Mylapore Kapaleeswarar Temple was one of the original versions of Kapaligam?
Subsequently it was destroyed during (or before) British time and the present temple is only 400 yr old.
Rajendra - like Periya pazhuvettarayar - was also an ardent follower of Laguleesam.. It was prominantly practised in Thiruvottriyur - Madras.
Kalki did touch Kapaligam / Kalamugam in Ponniyinselvan - Sivakamiyin sabadham and Parthiban Kanavu ...
Kalki also touched another aspect : Appearance in Disguise by the King
It is amazing to note that with very little details available about 55 years back, how could he visualise so many things and describe with such ease. May be he also had the eye for details like Dr. Kalaikkovan or someone like Dr.KKVN had helped him in so many ways ..
