Rameswaram Lakshmana Theertha's historical background:
One of the most significant Theerthas in Rameswaram is Lakshmanar Theertha. Visits to the Rameswaram Ramanathaswamy Temple are mandatory for devotees.According to the epic Ramayana, Rama's brother Lakshmana made this tirtha to kill Ravana, who had kidnapped Sita, and to atone for his misdeeds.One of the main Theertha Ponds in Rameswaram is this one. The area surrounding Rameswaram is home to about 64 holy ponds. There are some that are going extinct.
Of these, the Arulmiku Ramanathaswamy temple's grounds are home to twenty-two sacred theerthas. Theertha Pool has a Tharsura celebration on Thaipusam, when the locals can be seen in floods.This Theertha is located one kilometer away from Ramanathaswamy Temple on the left. Sita Temple and Panchmukhi Anjaneyar Temple, where stones float in the river, are located across from each other.Named after Lakshmaneswarar, Lakshmana Theertha is a temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. In the temple, worshippers shower water on one other's heads. The idea that the pond's fish are provided rice and traps as prey in exchange for blessings is untrue.
