Who worship Maleeswari

Maleeswari (also spelled Malleeswari or Malaiyammai) is a popular goddess worshipped mainly among several tribal communities and rural groups in Tamil Nadu and surrounding regions.

Who worships Maleeswari?

  • Kurumba tribes (especially Betta Kurumba and Jenu Kurumba):
    Maleeswari is revered as a mother goddess associated with hills, forests, fertility, and protection. She is often considered a form of Durga or Mariamman.
     
  • Other Hill and Forest Tribes:
    Many tribal groups in the Western Ghats and Nilgiris who are forest dwellers honor Maleeswari as their guardian deity.
     
  • Rural Agricultural Communities:
    In some rural non-tribal communities, especially in Tamil Nadu, Maleeswari is worshipped as a goddess of prosperity and rain.

Significance of Maleeswari

  • Seen as a protective mother figure who safeguards the community and nature.
  • Associated with fertility, health, and the bounty of the land.
  • Temples dedicated to Maleeswari are often located on hills or near forests.
  • Worship includes traditional folk rituals, sometimes involving trance, dance, and offerings of flowers, rice, and animal sacrifices in tribal areas.
