Mangadu Temple IDOL

History of this Temple

According to the history, once Mother Parvati had closed the eyes of Lord Shiva while playing a game. So, the whole universe stood still. Hence, Lord Shiva cursed him to be born on earth. She was advised to do penance at Mangadu, and the god promised to marry her at the appropriate time. So the mother did penance by standing in front of the fire.

He heard a blessing voice to go to Kanchipuram to proceed with the penance. As soon as Maa started her penance in Mangadu, people started calling it Adhi Kamakshi Sthal. While going to Kanchipuram, the mother did not extinguish the fire of Panchgani.

So people believe that this is the reason for the heat in and around Mangadu History of this temple also says that Acharya Shankar installed Sri Arthameru Sri Chakra made from eight herbs to make it fertile again.
