It is one among 108 vaishnavait stalams and is considered on par with that of SriRangam, Tirupathi and Kanchi. Lord Sri Saranatha blessed the goddess Kaveri in praise of her thapas for considering her to be equal to Ganga. He appeared as a little child first and later with Sri Devi, BhooDevi, Neela Devi, Lakshmi and Saranayagi Thayar( Pancha Lakshimis). Thirumangai Alwar has praised him as one who is worshiped by all in haven and earth and said that even those who see the people who had worshiped this lord will not be harmed by any evil or death. Saint Margendaya attained mukthi only in this kshthram. Every year on makara poornima pushyam, the lord is taken in the temple car after 8 days of Brammothsawam. ` Due to poor funds, the car festival has been suspended from 1982 and the Government of Tamil Nadu has recently permitted the renovation of the car.
