A TEMPLE FOR BHARATA

According to another legend, one saintly person belonging to Taliparamba was on a strange mission to visit all great temples in Kerala with a view to transfer the chaitanya of the gods to the temple in his village, When he came to Irinjalakuda for the same purpose, the conchshell in which he had transferred the divinities accidentally fell from his hand and broke into pieces, Instantly the assembly of divinities of all the idols merged with the deity at. Irinjalakuda, giving it the name of Sangameswara.  In fact, the priest offers worship in the name of Siva, Vishnu and Devi to the same idol of Sangameswara, giving credence to the story.
