More
than the mandapams and different images representing the adorable
deities, there are 22 thirthas in different parts of the temple
campus itself each with a characteristic taste of its own -- a
unique feature not found in any temple anywhere in India. A bath in
them is quite efficacious, showering peace and bliss to the bathers.
Hence, every visitor invariably starts this ritual after taking bath
in the Agnithirtham before entering the principal shrines. The
medicinal properties of the thirthas cure skin diseases, according
to belief. Among them, Madhav, Chakra, Amrita, Ganga, Saraswati,
Parvathi, Lakshmi, Siva, Sarva, Kotithirthams are famous.
After
prayers, visitors go to Dhanesh Kodi; Gandhamadana Parvatha and
several thirthas
