Temple

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

Here devotees are considering the temple as two. One is Lord Shiva Temple and the other is Lord Vishnu Temple. The Lord Shiva temple has two separate sanctum sanctorums, one devoted to Lord Shiva (Shivalingam), looking to the east, and the other for Devi Parvathy looking to the west. The Lord Vishnu temple has one sanctum sanctorum for Lord Vishnu, looking to the east.

The Lord Ganesha shrine has one separate sanctum sanctorum. As per vastu, the sanctum sanctorum is located 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 place beneath the Strychine tree (Kanjirum) near the Lord Vishnu's sanctum sanctorum.[1]

gollark: On the plus side the PinePhone at least will let you swap the battery and probably screen, the Librem 5 has its cellular modem and WiFi card on separate, er, M.2 cards, and the PinePhone will apparently have some I2C pogo pins to allow, say, keyboard cases.
gollark: Blackberry stuff is far too "secure" for custom ROM support, unfortunately.
gollark: Keyboard: Blackberry keyONE or however you spell that.Sane screen, two cameras, µSD slot and headphone jack: my old Wileyfox SwiftUser-replaceable components: the Fairphone maybe?GNU/Linux: PinePhone, Librem 5, that's basically it as far as I know.
gollark: The annoying thing is that many phones do *some* of this, but none do *most*.
gollark: I mean it in the general sense of "mildly like what I run on my laptop".
