| Muruga enshrined
here is known as Selvamuttukumaraswami. All the Navagrahas are also here and among them
Angaraka is worshipped with great reverence and thus this shrine is also known as Angaraka
Kshetra. It was here that God Muruga obtained the trident Jatayu. At the dying request of
Jatayu, Sri Rama brought his remains here and cremated them. As King Veera Serva was listening to Siva Puranam he escaped being
attacked by tuberculosis, but his son got this disease. 'This son Chitrasena came to this
Kunda under the instructions of his guru and offered Puja to this Kunda and wore the
sacred ash available here. Immediately he was relieved of his illness as many others are,
who come nowadays with similar complaints. |
