As we had seen in our earlier posts about doing Pithru Tharpanam in Manikarniga Lake located in Thiruneermalai near Chennai. I wish to give few details for the readers to do Pithru Tharpanam: 1. The Manikarniga Lake is loacted in a small village loacted in the South Western suburb of Chennai 2. The Village is called as "Thiru - Neer - Malai" which has two magnificient Vishnu temples. There is a temple that is located in the foothills of a small hill and the presiding deity is called as "Neer-Vanna-Perumal". The presiding deity atop the small hill is called as the "Renganatha-Swamy-Perumal" 3. You can take the City Bus Route No 55 & 55 A which plies to Palanthandalam both from Tambaram and Pallavaram. Buses are frequent and charges are Rs. 5.00. 4. You can take Share Autos from Pallavaram which charges Rs. 15.00 per head. If you hire autos, they charge you around Rs. 100.00 to Rs. 120.00. 5. You can contact an aged Purohitar Thiru. Sampath
