Patteeswaram
Nandi Shift for Sambandar
About Temple: The temple is located 6km away from Kumbakonam on the Kumbakonam- Aavoor road. The temple is 3 km away from Darasuram. Tirugnana Sambandar came to Thirusattimutram with Adiyars for worshipping. Then he started towards Patteeswaram. Since the Solar movement was towards the Mituna star causing oppressive heat waves, the child sambandar could not manage. The Lord sent his bhoodaganas to decorate the streets with beautiful Muthu pandal. The bhoodaganas prepared the pandal with Pearl Umbrella . Inorder that Sambandar has a view of the Sanctum sanctorum from outside and Lord wanted to enjoy the childish walking movement of child saint ordered Nandi to move from his place. Gnanasambandar’s joy knew no bounds and sung a pathigam (10 songs) beginning with the word Marai. The incidence is remembered each year during the Tamil Ani Month June-July) with all festive celebrations.
Reputation: The name Patteeswaram was derived from the daughter of the Divine Cow Kamadenu PATTI WHO worshipped the lord here. The Lord asked his vehicle Nandi to move a little so he could see Gnanasambandar coming to have his Darshan. Sri Rama was relieved of Sayagathi dosha. Goddess herself performed penance here. A brahmin Darma Sharma belonging to to Malava Kingdom was relieved of the curse of Rishi Medhavi when a drop from the Holy Gnanavavi theertham fell on him. It was in Patteeswaram; Rishi Viswamitra was admitted in the company of Brahma rishis with the backing of Gayatri Mahamantra. Markandeya worshipped here. The Durga is all-powerful. Large number of devotees throngs the temple to worship Mother Durga. Ganasambandar praises the Temple in his Thevaram hyms. The temple has the arts of the Nayakkar period and also paintings of Maratha period. A very ancient temple.
History: Goddess Parasakthi wanted to perform penance in a calm place and chose this place. A forest was created in the belt areas of Thirupatteeswaram, The Devas took the form of trees and plants. Divine Cow Kamadenu sent her daughter Patti and served the Goddess in her penance. Lord Shiva gave dharsan to the Goddess and here and assumed the name Kabardeeswarar.. Knowing the reputation of the place, Patti also wanted to worship the Lord and made a Linga of sand.and worshipped as rules. She bathed the God with her milk and Gnanavavi theertham. The Lord was greatly pleased with the worship of Patti and incarnated himself in the Linga. The place came to be known as Patteeswaram after Patti, daughter of Kamadenu.

Thirupurambiyam
There is a very special deity named "Pralayam Kaatha Vinayagar" which means (pralayam - Destruction of Earth by the forces of Sea - Water), (Kaatha - Safe guard), (Vinayagar in Tamil language - Lord Ganesha Moorthy - Son of Lord Shiva). During the end of "Kreyathayuga" the Earth was destroyed by the water forces of 7 Seas. Thirupurambiam was existing from the Kreyathayuga and Lord Shiva wished to preserve this Holy place "Thirupurambiyam" and passed this holy work of preserving Thirupurambiyam to His son Lord Ganesha. Lord Ganesha using the powers of "Pranava Mantra" - Holy vibration "Om" controlled the forces of the 7 seas into one well and saved this holy place from "Pralaya" as per Lord Shiva. Even today one can see "The well that contained 7 Seas" in the temple premisis. Due to the "ThiruVilaiaadal" of Lord Ganesha, Thirupurambiam is famous for Lord Ganesha.
Once Lord "Varuna" (God of Water or God of Seas) made a special Ganesha using the substances from his body, like Shells, Snail hoods, Oyster shells, Sea foam, and worshipped by installing at the temple. Eversince during the "Vinayagar Chaturthi" day yearly about 100 Kgs of Honey is used for "Abishegam". To once wonder all the 100 Kgs of Honey is absorbed by the Ganesha idol and the deity shines like made of Gold on that day. Other than the Honey Abishegam on the Vinayagar Chaturthi day yearly once, no other Abishegam is performed to the idol. Large number of devotees visit on every day and special days like Chaturthi and on Vinayagay Chaturthi day.
