Significance edit

It is one of the shrines of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams - Shiva Sthalams glorified in the early medieval Tevaram poems by Tamil Saivite Nayanars Tirugnanasambandar and Sundarar. Saint Sambandar is believed to have obtained a golden cymbal miraculously in this temple.[3]

Literary Mention edit

Tirugnanasambandar describes the feature of the deity as:[4]

நிழலார் சோலை நீல வண்டினங்

குழலார் பண்செய் கோலக் காவுளான்
கழலான் மொய்த்த பாதங் கைகளால்

தொழலார் பக்கல் துயர மில்லையே.
