THE LEGEND GARNERING POWERS OD DEITIES

One more exciting version explains the name of Sangameswara in a strange way, and in a different setting at it. It only raises the divinity of the Lord to the pinnacle of glory. It runs - Once a pious Bhaktas of saintly character belonging by Taliparamba betook himself a strange mission of visiting all the sacred places in Kerala to garner the powers - Chaitanya of the presiding deities and transferring that whole Chaitanya to the temple deity of his village for the benefit of asthika community. What an idea! How noble was the mission!'. 

How exemplary was his humanism!!! If at all such ideal materialises, one can worship all the deities in one place and see all the forms in one and same deity only. No sooner did the idea take its final form than he set out to collect the Chaitanya of each deity in his sacred conch shell. With such strange method and mission, he travelled across the country visiting every holy place and collecting the powers of the deities in his conch shell.
