Introduction

It is about 16 km from Viluppuram. The temple is located in the remote village of Kalpattu. Avadutha Swayamprakasa Swamy was born on 28.12.1871 as the son of Ramasamy Shastrijanaki couple. His parents named him Krishnamurthy. Today, the largest 1000year-old Lakshmi Ganesar temple worshiped by the saint in the village of Kalpattu is in ruins. The temple is located here and houses the shrines of Lakshmi Ganesar, Kedareshwarar, Lakshminarasimhar, Sitaramalatsumana, Hanuman and Swayamprakasa Avadutha Swami. The Village People are now working together to rebuild the Ganesha temple, which was worshiped by the incomparable Avadutha Mahan, as if the Avadutha Mahan had brought Tiruvallam to be renovated. They don’t have such funds to raise the temple, still, the temple is in ruins.
