| The soldiers of
Thekkumkoor woke up from their slumber but they did nothing to stop the intruders and
prevent the loss of merely a granite stone image. Next morning the minister and party
arrived at Champakulam madam where the Thampuran went to receive the idol, which was
ceremoniously taken to the temple. This event took place on the Moolam day of a Mithunam
(June-July). It is to commemorate this that the Champakulam boat race is held every year.
The idol was duly installed in the temple at a propitious time on Thiruvonam day in
Mithunam in 1613 A.D.
