The mystery behind the 7th door of Padmanabha Swamy Temple

What is the mystery behind the 7^th door of Padmanabha Swamy Temple? Some say there is a huge amount of precious metals inside, some say there are two big cobras, guarding inside, some say it is the 7^th door of lord Vishnu. But most of the experts claim not to open the door, because it will bring catastrophe to India or may be to the whole world.

About the Temple;

Shree Vishnu’s associates of Vaikuntha took avatars in India during Dwapar Yug to take part in the Krishna leela to re-establish dharma for the common people. Divine king of Snakes, Sheshnag’s avatar was Balram, brother of Shree Krishna. It is said that the followers of Balram are protecting the 7^th door of Padmanabhaswamy temple.

Sree Padmanabhaswamy temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to Bhagwan Vishnu located in Thiruvananthapuram, India. The shrine is currently run by a trust headed by the royal family of Travancore. The Maharajahs of Travancore are Cheras and descendants of the great saint Kulashekhara Alwar. The temple is one of 108 Divya Desams (pious abodes of Vishnu) – principal centres of worship of the deity in Vaishnavism. The temple is glorified in the Divya Prabandha, the early medieval Tamil literature canon of the Tamil Alvar saints (6th–9th centuries CE), with structural additions to it made throughout the 16th century CE, when its ornate Gopuram was constructed. The temple has historical significance for Sanatan Dharmis.

There is mention of the Deity and the Padmanabhaswamy temple in hundreds of years old, several extant Hindu Texts, ancient scripts, recent Sangam Tamil literature (500 BC to 300 AD wherein it was referred to as the “Golden Temple” on account of its then unimaginable wealth), and the treasures consist of countless artifacts dating back to the Chera, Pandya, Mesopotamian, Greek and Roman epochs.

The Temple is a replica of the famous Sri Adikesavaperumal Temple at Thiruvattar. Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple gave its name to Kerala’s state capital Thiruvananthapuram. ‘Thiru’ ‘Anantha’ ‘Puram’ means Sacred Abode of Bhagwan Anantha Padmanabha. The city is also known as Anandapuram (City of Bliss) and Syananduram (Where Bliss is not far off). Ananda refers to Sree Padmanabha Himself. Hindu scriptures refer to the Supreme Being as ‘Sachidananda’ (Absolute Truth, Absolute Consciousness and Absolute Bliss). Even today Kerala is known as God’s own country.

The Principal Deity, Padmanabhaswamy, is enshrined in the “Anantha-sayanam” posture (in the eternal sleep of Yoga-nidra on the serpent Anantha). The Maharajah of Travancore bears the title, “Sree Padmanabhadasa’ (Servant of Bhagwan Padmanabha).

In line with the Temple Entry Proclamation, only those who profess the Hindu faith are permitted entry to the temple. Devotees have to strictly follow the dress code. Ananthankadu Nagaraja Temple still exists to the north west of Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple. The Samadhi (final resting place) of the Swamiyar exists to the west of the Sri Padmanabha Temple. A Krishna Temple was built over the Samadhi. This Temple, known as Vilvamangalam Sri Krishna Swami Temple, belongs to Thrissur Naduvil Madhom.

In the sanctorum, Sri Padmanabha reclines on the serpent Anantha or Adi Sesha. The serpent has five hoods facing inwards, signifying contemplation. The Bhagwan’s right hand is placed over a Shiv Lingam. Sridevi, the Devi of Prosperity and Bhudevi the Devi of Earth, two consorts of Vishnu are by his side. Brahma emerges on a lotus, which emanates from the navel of the Bhagwan. The deity is made from 12,000 saligrams. These saligrams are from the banks of the Gandaki River in Nepal, and to commemorate this, certain rituals are performed at the Pashupatinath Temple. The deity of Sri Padmanabha is covered with, “Katusarkara yogam”, a special ayurvedic mix, which forms a plaster that keeps the deity clean. The daily worship is done with flowers and the abhishekam.

THE MYSTERY BEHIND THE DOOR;

Recently the temple of Anantha Padmanabha Swamy in Tiruvananthapuram, Kerala has got the world’s attention because it proves to be the richest temple in the whole world.

About 1 lakh crores worth of gold is found in the underground of the vault’s temple. Treasures includes ancient gold chain, diamonds, rubies and precious stones, silver vessels, and gold statues the value of which is humanly impossible to evaluate in terms of money, bags full of golden coins of different nations including NAPOLEON and ITALIAN were also found.

Among the six kallaras or chambers in the Temple, Bharatakkon Kallara (Chamber B) is very closely associated with Sri Padmanabhaswamy. It is not a part of the Temple Treasury. The holy Chamber houses a Srichakram, an idol of Sri Padmanabha and many valuables meant to enhance the potency of the Principal Deity. It has in it the presence of many Bhagwans and sages worshipping the Bhagwan. Kanjirottu Yakshi also resides in the Chamber worshipping Bhagwan Narasimha. The enchanting and ferocious forms of this Yakshi are painted on the south-west part of the main Sanctum.

Supreme Court of India appointed the seven member committee in the presence of the Head Trustee of Travencore Trust of Sri Anantha Padmanabha Swamy temple.

Treasures are found from other chambers but the 7^th door of chamber B cannot be unlocked.

According to the experts it was expected to Unlock by itself when a secret Chant is spelled as it is locked in that way. The door has no nuts or bolts or other type of locks. The door is locked from inside.

It is believed that the chamber is being considered by the Trust members and other learned Astrologers of India, as highly mysterious, sacred, risky and dangerous to unveil it. Because the steel door of the chamber B is having two big COBRA PORTRAITS on it.

It is considered to be fixed to the secret chamber with the NAGA BANDHAM or NAGA PAASAM mantras by the then siddha purashas who lived during the reign of king MARTHANDAVARMA in the 16^th century.

A door of such a secret vault can be opened by a highly erudite SADHUS or TANTRIKAS who are familiar with the knowledge of extricating NAGA BANDHAM or NAGA PASAM by chanting a GARUDA MANTRA; so except in this way the door can’t be opened by any means by anyone. At present nowhere in INDIA or in the world such a highly sacred and powerful SIDDHAPURSHAS or YOGIS or TANTRIKAS who does know how to execute highly sacred GARUDA MANTRA are existing.

If any attempts are made with man-made technology to open the mysterious chamber B other than by chanting highly sacred and powerful GARUDA MANTRAS by a highly sacred SADHUS or TANTRIKAS, catastrophies are likely to occur in and around the Temple Premises or throughout India or the world according to the vedic astrologers of INDIA, who also revealed their inability to open the door by chanting the secret GARUDA MANTRA.

If Garuda MANTRA is chanted by any powerful SADHU or YOGI or TANTRIKA the door proceeds to automatically open and no human effort is needed to open it in any other way. Adding to the belief that the GARUDA drives away mighty serpents from our way.
