AADHI MAHALINGAESWARAR TEMPLE
Distance: 7kms from Guduvanjery
Shiva: Aadhi Mahalingaeswarar
Amman: Mahaeswari
Sthala Viruksham: Neem
Speciality:
This Linga was found in a bush. The people around placed the Linga around a roof. Now a small temple has been built for the Linga.
According to the records the name of the Linga has been identified as Perumattrueaswarar but now renamed as Aadhi Mahalingaeswarar and the name of the Amman is specified as Maheswari.
There are Sannidhis for Vinayaka and 2 Nandhis are found here. One Nandhi is Shiva Nandhi and the other should have been the Nandhi of Amman. Since the Amman is not found this Nandhi is placed behind the Shiva nandhi in the temple.
There is a pond beside the temple.
The Sthala Viruksha is different in this temple. 2 neem trees have arosen from one big root. These 2 trees have different type of leaves. So they are considered as one male tree and one female tree.
