Siddhar : Sri-La-Sri Nathamuni Swamigal
It
was told that Nathamuni Siddhar stayed in this place. Installed a Shiva
Lingam and worshiped. Hence, the Shiva Lingam was called Nathamuneeswarar.
After Nathamuni Swamigal attained Jeeva Samadhi, Nathamuneeswarar Shiva Lingam was moved to
one corner of the sanctum Sanctorum, and a New Shiva Lingam was installed and
named as Kampahareswarar.
The
Siddhar Jeeva Samadhi was converted into Sri Kampahareswarar Temple and Shiva's consort Dharmasamvardhini. The
temple was also reconstructed, and kumbhabhishekam was also conducted during recent years. An Idol of Sri-La-Sri Nathamuni Swamigal was
installed by his followers. It is believed that the Siddhar
Sri-La-Sri Nathamuni Swamigal lived and attained Jeeva Samadhi about 200 years
before. No more authentic details are
found about this Nathamuni Swamigal.
