Sri suriyanar temple

Here, Lord Surya with Ushadevi on his left hand and Pratyushadevi on his right hand graces the kolam standing facing west with lotus flowers in both hands.

The sage Kaalava faced an illness, and seeking a cure and blessings, he turned to the Navagrahas (nine celestial bodies). According to his request, the Navagraha deities bestowed blessings upon him, which angered Lord Brahma when he learned of it." +"By the command of Lord Shiva, we were instructed to only allocate the appropriate amount of blessings to everyone, but you exceeded that limit by seeking additional blessings. Therefore, you were cursed to suffer from illness in the earthly realm." +"As a result, you went to the White Forest in the celestial realm and performed intense penance, praying to Lord Shiva. He appeared before you and declared that this temple would shine as your abode. He blessed you to guide devotees through various difficulties and to shower them with grace. This, indeed, is the history of this temple.
