Prominence of the Shrine :
Worshing Gnanambigai at this shrine offers the same munificence as the
one received after worshipping the Kalahasthi Peruman of Vayulinga
Kshetra. The Jeerageswarar here is
believed to bring down high fever of the devotees, if they anoint
Jeeraheswarar in hot water, offers boiled rice, pepper soup with dhal
paste as side dish, worship him with Vilva leaves and consume the
Vibbuti offered as prasadam. The bell at the temple when rung, reverberates with the sound ‘OM’. The Lord of this shrine appears at Mahamaham celebrations.
Temple History : This
temple has been renovated by King Saraboji who ruled Tanjore. If the
devotees worship the Ambal here, it is equivalent of worshipping at
Kalahasthi. Dedicated Sannidhi for Lord Kalyana Sundara Murthy and
Goddess Karththiyayini.
