          Long back Goddess umadevi and Lord Shiva were discussing about the earthly affairs. During the course of conversation, the subject of their marriage also intervened.

          Goddess umadevi, was submitting her desire to look the event of their wedding again and prayed the Lord Shiva. As per the will of His Wife, He blessed such reoccurance at Thirumanajeri. “Gokilambal” was an another name of Goddess Parvathi. So the wedding of “Gokilambal-Sundara Moorthy” took place at Thirumanajeri.

          As for as the devotees concerned, it is firm belief and real happenings that those who are at the age for marriage, they should pray the “Gokilambal Kalyana  Sundara Moorthy” for their fulfillment of desires for marriage.

          All castes and people from foreign land come here and await for the boon for their life mates.
