Main deity: Swayambu linga known as Pancha lingaeswara and ambal is Kamakshi.
Legend: This is a very important temple by legend since the pancha lingas were made by Kamakshi representing pancha boodha and worshipped here before starting her severe penance near Kamba river.
Kanchi Maha Swamigal intended to stay here permanently at one point of time. There is an adjacent Kanchi Maha Swamigal Mandapam where he stayed for quite some time. Considered very sacred and ideal for meditation.
Birla family arranged the Kumbabhishegam for the temple in 1988 at the behest of Kanchi MahaSwamigal,
People can light 27 ghee lamps in the shrine that corresponds to their Rasi.
