Special Features

One crore Siddhas came and worshiped the Lord at this ancient site and today they are still here as trees, leaves, flowers, fruits, fruits, stones and sand. That is why it is rumored that the village is called “Orukodi” Besides, there is a door directly opposite to worship the Lord, let’s go through it and worship! In some temples the window in front is the only way to worship, They are called window temples, and in this orukodi village alone, one has to look through a hole that is small enough to keep an eye on. This is a hole darshanam temple, which is the only one that can be seen here. Until 2018, the shrine was in a state of disrepair. What has gone wrong now has been painted and worshiped. Complete reversals must be made., the temple dates back to the 15th century. The temple is associated with Lord Abirameswarar Goddess Muktambika. The villagers claim that there were various rare weeds inside the temple and that they eventually disappeared and were taken away by many. The Lord of this temple is also called by the name of Nathar, the heroine who gave birth to the goddess. Thus the claim of the people that there were traces of grass here may be true Shiva temple facing east, the goddess facing south. The entrance to the temple is directly opposite to the source and Nandi is in front of the Goddess at the side gate to enter the temple. south is Dakshinamoorthy, and at the back of the sanctum is the shrine of Kodi Ganesha. Nearby is the Valli Deyvanai Sametha Murugan Monastery, which is now in a state of disrepair and its idols have been stolen. Only a valli placed in front of its sanctuary. The temple has idols of Koravai, Pechiyamman and Muthadevi. In front of the temple is a statue of the Goddess Ellaipitari. The roof of a pyre is bought by a new devotee. The sky is the limit. There was a well near the Shiva temple and inside this well there was a treasure with a golden chariot, the public says. The ruined temple has been restored amidst many difficulties. Currently, a temple priest named Murugan is performing pooja. People credit is on special days like joy. However for daily expenses and pradosa expenses, the temple priest is in a glove position. There are many of us who help with the construction of the Murugan shrine and the pradosa expenses
