Religious significance The Shaiva saint Appar's sister Thilakavathiyar was living in Thiruvathigai during her later years and devoted her lifetime service to Shiva. Afflicted by a painful illness, Appar, who was originally called Dharmasenar and was then a staunch follower of Jainism, prayed for relief at this temple where his sister served. By the divine grace of Shiva, he was cured. He embraced Shaivism from then and started canonizing various temples with his verses. The ruling Pallava king namely Kadava punished Appar in various ways and finally dropped him in a lime kiln. He was subsequently cast on the waters of sea, where he started floating and was pushed ashore in Thirupathipuliyur. It is believed that some of his best songs were sung at this time in praise of the presiding deities at Padaleeswarar temple and Veerateneeswarar temple. Influenced by the greatness of the poet, the king himself converted from Jainism to Shaivism. References External links Tourist Guide to Tamil Nadu. Sura Books. 2010. p. 52. ISBN 978-81-7478-177-2.

Murugan Temple, Pazhamudircholai

Solaimalai Murugan Temple is a Hindu temple, located atop a hill, in the outskirts of Madurai in Tamil Nadu. It is dedicated to Murugan, and is one of the six abodes of Murugan (Arupadaiveedu). The temple is maintained and administered by the Hindu Religious and Charitable Endowments Department of the Government of Tamil Nadu. Mythology As per Kanda Puranam, sage Narada once visited Shiva at Kailasha and presented him with a gnana-palam (fruit of knowledge). As Murugan felt cheated after the fruit was given to Ganesha, he left Kailasha to took up abode in the Palani Hills as a hermit. After the incident, Tamil poet Avvaiyar came to pacify Murugan. Avvaiyar could not recognise Murugan, who was in disguise. Wanting to test Avvaiyar, Murugan, who was sitting atop a naaval tree, shook the tree to offer some fruits to the poet. Pazhamurdircholai is a combination of the Tamil language words, Pazham meaning fruit, udir meaning disperse, and cholai meaning orchard. As the fruits were dispersed at the location, it became the name of the temple. Religious significance Earlier, only vel, the divine weapon of Murugan was worshiped in the temple. Later shrines dedicated to the deities Ganesha, and Murugan along with his consorts–Deivanai and Valli, were established. The temple is mentioned in the Sangam literature Tirumurukāṟṟuppaṭai by Nakkeerar, and post Sangam literature such as Cilappatikaram by Ilango Adigal. Arunagirinathar composed Tamil hymns glorifying Murugan, the most notable being Tiruppukal, and included hymns about the temple. References
