Introduction

Kattumannarkoil is a village located at the 5 km on the Chidambaram road. The town is affectionately known by the bus operators as Serampettai. The town is located on the banks of the Velliyankal stream, a tributary of the Veeranam Lake. It is said that there was a Shiva temple here several hundred years ago and that the lingam, which was in ruins over time, was outside the field. The existing lingam is said to have dumped the idols of Ganesha on the bank of the Velliyankal stream from there. After that some Hindus put a tin shed on it and put a floor on it and worship it. Let’s hope that this Lord will also take the temple when the wheel of time spins. # “With the kind permission of Sri Kadambur K. Vijayan, these are extracted from his posts”.
