The speciality of this temple is the priests conduct six kala puja
daily without fail.
She has been installed in West Nain Street of the temple. The temple
uses Sadaari like the Vaishnava temples. The garlands which ARE
receiveD from the devotees are taken out in the morning and evenings
only and during the day she wears all the garlands given by the
devotees and on no accont it is removed during the intervening

in a slanting position below the hip region and her right leg appears
to be turned inwards slightly and this is known as " tribhangam " and
this is how the brahma got darshan of her. She is known to be Virgin.
Earlier at Kaanchi She was installed in the southern temple side and
was also known to devotees as Swarnangi, Sukahastha, Suthlinga
vallabha, dharma Devi, swarnambika etc. she is now represented by a
panchloka vigraham and a meru.

darshan To Brahma the creator , on his Wish during Swaethavaraha

tanjore on this temple written in an unknown language known as "
MODI" which is yet to be deciphered
During the sarada Navarathri before the Divine mother panchratna
kirthanas are sung.
If one concentrates on Her face She bears a divine smile and gives
out a rare grace which one would not fail to notice.

receiving the prasad of her from tanjore. That was the Bhakthi of
Periyavaal to wards Bangaru Kaamakshi.
