On Tiruvadhirai festival day, the Aarati is offered to Lord Shiva with a design so arranged to emphasize the truth of Rupa, Arupa and Aruvuru by keeping Lord Nataraja before Lord Shiva with a mirror.  Eight forms of Mother Mahalakshmi – Ashtalakshmis – are carved in front of the temple.  Rudraksha is the sacred tree of the temple.

Special pujas are performed to Sri Mahasaraswathi in the temple with chanting of Sakalavalli Malai authored by Saint Kumaraguruparar for students for their progress in education besides a special Srividya Homa in day annually.  Mother Saraswathi is taken in procession around the temple.  Students will be offered writing materials then.

There was a temple here for Lord Vinayaka many years ago.  Later devotees raised a temple here for Lord Viswanatha and Mother Visalakshi and also for Sri Badrakaliamman.  Idols were also made for Sun and Moon seated in a car drawn by seven horses installed on both sides of the main tower – Rajagopuram.  Pujas are performed to Sun in the morning and to moon in the evening.  This is being continued.
