During the blood drinking event, no vehicle should pass through the temple.

	In early days, traders from Kerala were coming to Tamilnadu with their merchandise loaded in bullock carts. During one such journey, the carts stopped abruptly. The stone tied with the cart to adjust balance in weights, became Karuppanasami. The temple was built at the same place. Karppanasami is now the custodian deity of the people of seven villages.
