Sree Indilayappan Temple

Shiva (Shiva Lingam), Devi Parvathy and Vishnu are the major deities of this temple. The sub-deities of the temple are Lord Ganesh, Nagarajavu & Nagayakshi, Brahmarakshas and Yakshi.


Here devotees are thinking about the temple as two. One is Lord Shiva Temple and the different is Lord Vishnu Temple. The Lord Shiva temple has two separate sanctum sanctorums, one dedicated to Lord Shiva (Shivalingam), searching to the east, and the different for Devi Parvathy searching to the west. The Lord Vishnu temple has one sanctum sanctorum for Lord Vishnu, searching to the east.
The Lord Ganesha shrine has one separate sanctum sanctorum. As per vastu, the sanctum sanctorum is placed on the "Kanni mula" (south-west corner) of Lord Shiva temple. Sri Nagaraj & Nagayakshi and Brahmarakshas are worshipping devotees on the "Kanni mula" of Lord Ganesha. Yakshi have the location underneath the Strychine tree (Kanjirum) close to the Lord Vishnu's sanctum sanctorum
