Five Faces Eight Hands Subrahmanya Bhogar Odhimalai
The temple has Subrahmnaya with five faces and eight hands and is considered as Shiva.
The Murthy is called Krauncha Vedamurthy, the epithet applies to Subrahmanya/Shiva.
Another speciality is that there is no Sanctum for Devi!
As Prasad, the sand from the place considered to be the remains of the Homa Kunda Fire raised by Bhogar.
