Temple History : Enatinatha Nayanar was giving sword training to Royals. (His period was between 660 AD – 840 after Appar) . Enathi Nayanar thus added to the fame and glory. Adhisuran was also giving sword training. His conceit developed evil thoughts. Because of this Adhisuran’s value dropped. So he considered Enati Nayanar as his enemy and challenged him. Both agreed for the fight outside but many people died from both the sides. Adhisuran was defeated in the fight. Though Adhisuran realized that Enati Nayanar was superior to him in sword fight, his evil thoughts made him to plan for killing Enati Nayanar. Enati Nayanar worshipped Lord Shiva and his devotees. Knowing that Enati Nayanar would not harm the devotees who used sacred ash (Thiruneeru) in their forehead, he called Enati Nayanar to battle with him alone. When Nayanar found sacred ash on Adhisuran’s forehead he felt happy and stood still without fighting, Adhisuran used this chance and attacked Nayanar with his sword. Nayanar was defeated by Adhisuran. So Lord Shiva appeared before him and gave him salvation.Hence this place is also called as ‘Enatinatha Nayanar temple’.
