Ambalappathi

Ambala Pathi (Tamil: அம்பல பதி), also called as Pallathu pathi or Moolakunda pathi is one of the primary pathi of the Ayyavazhi, and the second important pilgrim centers of Ayyavazhi, and the place where Ayya Vaikundar is said to have unified all divine power into himself by symbolic marriages.

According to Ayyavazhi legends, Ayya Vaikundar an incarnation of god, as per the instruction in Vinchai by Narayana unified six female deities into himself in various forms such as Siva, Brahma etc. Because of this events this Pathi obtain religious importance next to Swamithope pathi. Before this Pathi there existed a Kali temple at the very spot. It was changed by Ayya into a Pathi.

Akilam gives, though not more than but almost an equal status and importance for Ambalappathi with Swamithope pathi.

Vaikundar after incarnating from the sea came to Detchanam and carried the Great Tavam and other incarnational activities. Before, during the Vinchai Vaikundar promised to Narayana that he will go to Ambalappathi after completing the incarnational activities in Swamithope. Narayana sensed that it's time for that. But he also felt that he had no right to order Vaikundar directly. So Narayan decided to remain this indirectly to Vaikundar. For that, he ordered Samala devi to take away two of the Seven Virgins. When two of them died, the whole mass of people shocked and assembled before Vaikundar.

A man in the midst of the crowd stood up and told about the dream he felt a few days before. As per the dream, Narayana told, "Vaikundar had forgotten the work which was given by me; His duty of destroying the Kali has been forgotten by him because of his joyful climate with the virgins". Hearing this Vaikundar proceeded towards Ambalappathi.
