History & Legend of Sori Muthu Ayyanar Temple

During the divine wedding of Lord Shiva with Mother Parvathi, as the mount went down due to the weight of the heavy crowd gathered there, Lord Shiva sent Sage Agasthya to South to balance the ground level.  Sage Agasthya worshipped Lord Shiva on this hill.  The Shivalinga worshipped by the sage got buried under the sand

Cows grazing in this region were found pouring their milk at a particular spot and this was communicated to the king.  He found a Linga at the spot and built a temple.  Lord Dharma Sastha too came out of this place as Sori Muthu Aiyanar with all his pariharam and the Sage was at loss of words on seeing the Divine entity

Saptha Kannikas (seven maidens) are in His shrine. Those who are not aware of their family deity, pray here.
