Karuppusamy
Karuppusamy, also known as Karuppu or Karuppannaswamy(Tamil: கருப்பண்ணசுவாமி Malayalam: കറുപ്പണ്ണസാമി ),(lit. 'Black God' or 'Black') is a Hindu god in Tamil Nadu, popular among the social groups of Tamil Nadu and Kerala and also Sri Lanka. He is one of 21 guardian deities of Ayyanar, and is one of 21 guardian deities in Dravidian folk religion.[2] Karuppu Samy temples are found in outside of villages. Whole villages contribute to maintenance of temples. These temples do not have gopurams and have large statues of deities with large eyes, holding weapons like bows and arrows, swords, sickles and other weapons. There are statues of eight Matrikas and a hound, a lion and a horse with a main statue of Karuppu Samy. Karuppu Samy worship is based on an ancient ancestral clan-based worship system in Hinduism. Here, most officiating priests are non - Brahmanas, and derive from local lineages that had initiated the cult generations ago. The worship pattern is non-Vedic or non-Agamic through folk tales, songs and arts of Villu Paattu, Karakattam, Koothu, etc. The local priests offer flowers and vibhuti (holy ash) to worshippers and plays a role of a oracle. Various people within the clan system are identified to play to the role of oracle on an annual turn basis. They undertake a vrata and maintain chastity and purity during the period. During the festivals, oracles get into Trance state of Sami Adudhal and deliver counselling messages to the group assembled there without bias. In some temples before the oracles deliver counselling messages, oracles stand on top of a aruval (Specifically Forms of Periyakaruppu,Muthukaruppu and Muppiliyaan). The normal problems addressed are family problems, financial troubles and local community and social issues for resolving within the community group with the agreement of local ancestral god through oracle. Whenever the wishes of the people are granted, they give their offerings to him bas

As you approach the temple, you are struck by its humble exterior. There's no towering gopuram or grand entrance. Instead, it stands quietly on the outskirts of the village, blending in with the surroundings. The temple itself is relatively small, but the aura around it is strong and almost palpable.
