The archamurthi is about two feet in height, and is Swayambhu-self manifested. Tradition attributes its existence to Parasurama's prayers. Gratified by the sanctity of the place, Bhargavarama propitiated Lord Siva to remain here. Would that Bhaktavasankar ever reject such requests? So lie has been remaining since then in the form of linga. Purificatory ceremonies were performed by Yoginarayana. Hence the two fold sanctity. It has lifted legions and witnessed spectacular pattattanams.  

The Mukhamandapa contains Nandi and to its south lies the shrine for Ganapathi. Balaganapathi image is installed in another shrine to its northeast. It is a powerful deity and prefers performance of homan. The devotees Performing Ganapathi Homam with due rituals are profited immensely. Hence heavy rush for this rituals.
