கும்பகோணத்தில் இருந்து பூந்தோட்டம் செல்லும் சாலையில் சென்று தென்கரை என்ற இடத்தில் இறங்கி ஒரு கிமீ சென்று இத்தலத்தை அடையலாம். இத்தலத்தில் திருமால் சக்கரம் வேண்டிப் பூசிக்கும்போது ஒரு மலர் குறையத் தன் கண்ணையே மலராக இட்டு அர்ச்சித்தார் என்பது தொன்நம்பிக்கை. சம்பந்தருக்கும் அப்பருக்கும் இறைவன் படிக்காசு வழங்கிய தலம் என்ற தொன்நம்பிக்கையும் உள்ளது.

When the Goddess appeared, the Sage asked for a boon that the Goddess herself be born as his daughter. Parvathi was pleased with his devotion and granted the boon. Accordingly She was born to the couple and grew up in the hermitage as Kathyayani. When Kathyayani attained marriageable age, the Sage requested Lord Shiva to marry her.

Devotees pray to Mappillaiswamy and then circumambulate the pandalkal in the faith that the marriage will happen soon.To commemorate this Divine marriage, Kalyana Utsavam is conducted every year at this temple on Maham star day in the tamil month of Chithirai.

He hid one of those flowers. At the end of the pooja, when Lord Vishnu noticed that He was short by one flower, He just plcuked out His left eye and placed it in front of Lord Shiva. Shiva was overwhelmed and presented Him the Sudarshana Chakram.There is no Navagraha Sannadhi in this temple.
