TEMPLE HISTORY (STHALA VARALARU)
Chandikeswarar, who was cursed by Sage Durvasa, was born as
Kamala Munivar and worshipped the Sivalingam here. But it was covered by an
anthill later and Nandikeswarar tried to remove it with his hoof. Blood oozed
from the Lingam and it was washed by Ganga who flowed as Sankarabarani river.
Goddess Mangalambigai, also known as Gunasamvardhini, emerged from the
sacrificial pit and married the Lord known as Rishabanathar.
