- Nochur Agraharam - 100 Agraharams Project
Nochur was once a village of 150 homes with brahmins. It was a center for vedic learning. As Sri Subbaraman says, the march of time has left the village with no Vedic Pundits even to do rituals and they currently depend on adjacent villages for the same.
"The village came into being during the middle of the 18th century during a period of upheaval and instability caused by the Carnatic wars in the south. Many smartha brahmin families started an exodus with all their belongings in search of a shelter and hopefully a permanent residence. Since most of the families hailed from the 3 paddy going district of Thanjavur, they were in search of a place that would be similar, and naturally, the present district of Palghat must have impressed them with her paddy fields, palm trees, coconut trees and ponds, and revived the memories of their old beloved homes. So they decided to settle in small groups in and around Palghat and the families that settled in Nochur formed one of the ancient settlements among the villages of Palghat."
"Prior to the migration the place was under a benevolent and pious namboodiri whose residence was called Nochupulli illam. The name of the illam must have come from the fact that the place was surrounded by the herbal plant “Nochi”, which is found even to this day. In course of time the village built by the Tamil speaking brahmins came to be called as Nochi Agraharam and subsequently Nochiyur and finally Nochur."
"In course of time the brahmins of the new settlement found their footing, and were well established by acquiring land for agriculture and dwellings, and became one with the place. They started evincing interest in the affairs of the temple and eventually the management of the temple and its related lands must have passed on to them. They also built a temple for God Vishnu, known as Krishnan temple which is at the junction of the two streets of Nochur. In addition a separate temple for God Siva was built that is now adjacent to the Bgagavathi temple but within the same premises. These temples became subsidiaries to the main Bhagavathi temple. Goddess Bhagavathi, being a Vana Durga, was found to be very powerful and the villagers found that even small omissions and commissions were enough to get retaliations in the form of fire and epidemics like chicken pox. The good samaritans of the village decided that something should be done to appease the Goddess. Under the guidance of the famous astrologer Rama Josyan from Cranganore (Kodungallur), it was decided to transform the Bhagavathi to a more peaceful form, “Shanti Durga”, and necessary propitiatory functions were performed. From that day onwards the Goddess came to be known as Shanti Durga Paramaeswari."
Transformation of the form of a deity from fierce to benevolent is possible by mantra shakthi.
Sri Sankaracharya visited the Tiruvotriyur temple and put an end to the ritual of offering sacrifices at the Amman shrine. He incepted a Sri Chakra and reduced the power of Devi and converted the fierce form of Devi into a graceful, beneficent form.
Sri Subbaraman has preserved his agaraharam home very well and the home and the priceless woodwork and vessels are immaculately preserved. I hope that all Agaraharam folks hold on to their family home and keep it intact.
Radhe Krishna

தஞ்ஜை க்ராமங்களிலும் இதுபோன்று இருந்ததை எனது சிறுவயதில் பார்த்துள்ளேன்.
நன்றாக ஆவணப்படுத்தப்பட்டுள்ளது.
பெரம்பூர் சேகர், கும்பகோணம்.
I am from Veleesvaram Village, West Peruvamba, just 2-1/2 kms from Nocchur Village. There used to be a temple built by a Sanyaasi near the tank, and a great function took place in the early 1960s, and many books on Augusteeya Kritis, etc. were published at that time. I used to daily walk thru Nochur village as a shortcut to go to Koduvayur for attending the Shortand and Typing Institute in Koduvayur, in the early 1970s; and also before that also for going to Koduvayur for the Koduvayur-santhi purchases and other provision purchases for house and cow-food items from Koduvayur. Our gramma vadhyar was from Koduvayur, Sri Krishna Sastrigal and his sons, who used to come on bicycle. Also Sundaram Krishna Vaadhyar also used to come to our village for bigger japams, etc.
For this temple we collected funds by conducting tms music function from Pollachi and remember came all the way from Pollachi via villayanur to attend sirgazhi givindarajan performance
Gone are the days when we used to live without electricity, bathroom and walk to the river early in the morning to have a bath - early to bed early to wake - thinnai, relee, pathayath walk through to kitchen and stair case to maadi where ladies used to sleep along with children - thanks to the deadly combination of namboodri and pattar we lost lands and gone the grammam concept and i am not sure if the tillers of the soil till doing tilling and not selling those land ment for agriculture
My grandparents were living in Nochur village. My grandmother passed away last year, just after the Nochur Bhagavathy theru .My grandfather's name is N.V.Sankaranarayanan. Grandmother's name - Seethalakshmi .Now, only my Mama is living in that house
It's a great idea and initiative by Sriram Mama to create this video
🙏
Nochur is world famous because of Ramanacharana Theertha Nochur Venkataraman Swamigal
My grandfather was Nochur Devaraja sastrigal. But do not know much about the village as he has relocated to Chennai . Thanks for this video.
@Sriram (Hari) - glad to know you have started this noble endeavour of highlighting 100 Agraharms in Palakkad District. This is very essential as present generations who hailed from these Agraharams in Palakkad will get to know more about their original native Agraharam.
Here's wishing you all the best in your efforts.
Thanks for uploading such interesting facts and history of our Agraharams.
നല്ല പ്രയത്നം, പദ്ധതി വിജയിക്കാൻ ഞങ്ങളുടെ ആശംസകൾ, കാശ്മീർ കഥ പോലെ പാലക്കാട് കഥയുടെ ഭാഗമാകുമെന്ന് പ്രതീക്ഷിക്കുന്നു
The Shiva kshetram in chandrashekarapuram Gramam was built by my paternal grt grandfather, appavya sundaram pattar. This i am sure is over a hundred year old story. But I know both my lineage. His daughter, sita, was married (C. S. Sittaiammal) was married to alaikalmadam parashuraman, Perindalmaanai. I can get in touch with anyone who knows details. I have heard there is a third generation carnation music vocal artist from this family who gives performances. Hoping to connect.
Kodi Kodi Pranams to the Holy birthplace of our Guru Nochur Venkataraman🙏🙏🙏
Congrats to Sriram (Hari) for curating the 100 agraharam project.
Nochurians are spread all over the world and you can find them even in the remotest corners.!
Please expand the scope of these Agraharams to include Sanskrit Villages also particularly in Maharashtra, Bihar ,Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh etc styled as Vedic Villages. Chief Minister Yogiji is receptive to these ideas .Thanks . Jai Hind !
I used to visit Nochur from Koduvayur for the Ratholsavsm, during my student days between 1950 and 1957. Had friends from Nochur, studying at the Koduvayur HS. Wishing you all the very best in your endeavours to keep up the traditions of the community in the spiritual, cultural & traditional fields .
