Omkaranathan, Pusthakagramam, Perumkulam

-

Incorporating conceptual opulence and inspired by the grandeur of Kailasa, Amarnath and Kedarnath, comes an awe-evoking brilliance of the Shiva sanctity and its humble submission, in Kerala. Satva Scapes, through its uniquely hand-crafted creative concept “OMKARANATHAN”, helps you arrive at a truth-seeking journey’s destination, at Perumkulam, also reputed as the first book village of Kerala aka Pustaka Gramam. Celebrating the convergence of art with devotion, Satva Scapes’ OMKARANATHAN, a majestic 15 feet tall impressive crown and torso of the Lord, helps you re-discover your inner self in complete resonance with the divine grace.

This statue is installed in the vicinity of the footsteps, which folklore maintains, were imprinted, when Lord Kozhikottappan granted His holy vision to Velu Thampi Dalawa.

Besides boasting of a naturally landscaped flowing water stream, the statue is resplendent with over a thousand Om Karam inscriptions on the hair locks of the Lord, reverently scripted by devotees.

Satva Design’s vision of the participation of public, both young and old, was thus achieved through this Om Karam exercise. Specially fitted audio systems that facilitate the OM chanting, electrifies the ambience here into a perfect place for meditation.

The statue, depicting the supreme yogic state of the Lord with half-opened eyes, was formally dedicated to the public on April 15, 2023, at the culturally rich Perumkulam Kozhikode Kaavu Kshetram premises.

This project, further aims to showcase Perumkulam as a spot of international tourism attraction, with an added advantage of being proximately located to the Jatayu Hills, a famous tourist spot at Chadayamangalam, just around 25 kms away.

  Nature's Gift to KOKO: A Harmony of Life and Land in Perumkulam In the verdant heart of Kerala's first book village, Pusthakagramam, lies the village tourism project KOKO, a place where the whispers of nature and the wisdom of books converge. The recent discovery of two animals, a tortoise and a rabbit, naturally sculpted by the landscape itself, is a testament to the beauty and wonder that the natural world holds. The tortoise, with its solid shell and deliberate pace, symbolizes the enduring spirit of KOKO. It reflects the project's commitment to sustainability and the protection of nature. This creature, shaped by the very rocks of KOKO, serves as a guardian of the land, reminding us of the importance of a slow and steady approach to conservation. The rabbit, agile and alert, represents the dynamic energy of life that pulses through KOKO. Its presence on the right-hand rock is a playful nod from nature, an embodiment of the joy and vitality that visitors can experience

Kuravar Kali (Bharata Kali), Pusthakagramam, Perumkulam

The Kuravar artists were under the patronage and guidance of the tutelage of the Kuravarkulam Urali, who belonged to a dravidian tribe. They saw the universe as the all  eternal and ultimate truth. They worshipped and revered natural elements such as  sun, moon, water, air, and trees. They gave wild food as offerings to the Gods who protected them in their times of  happiness and sadness. They pleased the gods through their dancing and singing in circular movements. Their belief is that the deities who are pleased with this will bestow them with their blessings for the prosperity of  their tribe and their lands. As a clan ritual art of Kurams, Kuram games are still being performed in Kavus and temples. The places where such games are played are called kalari or kalams. The instruments required for these are Maddalam, Kutty, Kuzhal (bamboo), and Kaimani. All these three beats, in rhythm, wake up the mountain gods and  the kalam. Urali prostrates and prays for the prosperity, unity, and

check out video  Imagine a place where every page turn in a book echoes the rhythm of nature, where the whispers of the forest blend with the stories of old. This is the vision of KOKO, nestled in the heart of Perumkulam, Kerala's first book village (Pusthakagramam). Here, a butterfly flutters in, its wings painted with splashes of orange and black—a spontaneous mascot for this eco-adventure. Prakash Varma, the mind behind KOKO, dreams of a world where creativity blooms alongside nature's wonders. The butterfly's arrival seems to say, "Yes, this is the place!" It's a sign that here, life will thrive, even as we shape our dreams into reality. This snapshot, with the butterfly perched so trustingly on Prakash, is a snapshot of hope. It tells us that KOKO is on the right path—a path that respects the rustle of leaves and the buzz of bees as much as the buildings we raise. The butterfly isn't just a fleeting visitor; it's a key player in the KOKO story. It
