Man fears time, yet time fears the pyramids,' so goes an ancient Arabic proverb. A new pyramid shaped Nataraja temple has been built in Pudukuppam . Pudukuppam is located a short distance ahead of Pondicherry in the East Coast road, Tamil Nadu. The Pudhukuppam temple is situated on the beach. The sound of the waves and cool breeze add to the ambience.
Unlike other temples, this one does not have a kalasam on the top and figures on the gopurams. Inside the pyramid, the idols of Lord Nataraja and his consort Goddess Sivakami, a Lingam, Lord Ganesha and Lord Muruga have been installed. But like in other temples, there are three paths for pradakshina.
This temple is built in such a way that the pyramid has been oriented exactly towards the magnetic North, to generate maximum energy.
