 In Treta Yuga, Lord Anjaneya, the devoted and trustworthy envoy of Lord Sree Rama, was entrusted to install the deity of Lord Mahadeva in Rameswaram by Lord Sree Rama. On his way, he installed one part of the deity of Lord Mahadeva in this sacred land; thereby, he reached late at Rameswaram. Due to Lord Anjaneya's belated arrival, Lord Sree Rama installed Lord Mahadeva's deity made in clay and imparted the remaining life force to the clay deity situating in Dhanushkodi.
 Because of the immense blessing power and the importance of this land, Gods and Saints worshiped the deity of Lord Mahadeva in this place. In Kali Yuga, about six of the Brahmin families constructed the main Sanctum, Sanctorum of Lord Mahadeva, in this place and worshiped the deity in three different forms—Lord Dakshina Murthi in the morning, Lord Kiratha Murthi at noon and Lord Uma Maheswar in the evening. Lately, because of the negligence of fostering and foreign invasion, many parts of the temple had been destroyed. During the 1980s, the families of the temple trustees and local devotees started the renovation work of this temple.
 An astrological thought was conducted in the temple from 7 March to 13 March 2011, and many remedial works had been revealed to conducted. Thereafter, a well structured committee has been formed and started the efforts to retain the ancient grace of the temple. The renovation of the main Sanctum Sanctorum, the Namaskara Mandapam, the four-sided building around the Sanctum Sanctorum (nalambalam), the temple for Lord Vigneshar, the temple for Lord Subrahmanya, and the Saraswathi Mandapa are some of the most important works to be completed.
