TIRUKKANDIYUR
This Divya shetram is located around 2 Kms from Tiruvaiyaru. This place is also considered to be one of the Saptastanams of the Panchanadiswarar temples at Tiruvaiyaru. The moolavar is Hara saapa vimochana perumal also known as Brigunathar, in a standing posture. Thayar is Kamalavalli. The Utsavar is known as Kamalanathar. The Theertham is Kapalamoksha puskarani, and the Vimanam is Kamalaakrithi
Vimanam. There is a separate sanctum for Thayar. There are also shrines for Narasimhar, Garudar and Andal
As in Tirukkarambanur the legend is that the fifth head of Brahma plucked out by Siva got stuck to his palms and it got unstuck only after Lord Vishnu and Mahalakshmi offered alms into the stuck head, and hence the moolavar is called Hara Sapa Vimochana Perumal.
Azhwar
Managalaasaasanam:
Tirumangai Azhwar ? 2050 (pasuram number as in Naalaayira Divya Prabhandam)
Across the temple is Tirukkandiyur Veeratta Sivasthalam where there are shrines for Brahma and Saraswati. The annual brahmohtsavam is being celebrated in the Tamil month of Panguni.
