This unique temple of Sarabeswarar is located ten kms away from Kumbakonam on Myladuthurai and Kumbakonam route. This temple is said to have been constructed by Kulothunga Chola III 1176 to mark his conquests of North Indian Kingdoms. The main deity of this temple is Kambahareswarar , a swayambhu Lingam with great powers. A king called Varaguna Pandian was afflicted with shaking fits caused due to his act of killing an innocent Brahmin. He was cured of this complaint and relieved of Brahmahatya dosha when he worshipped the presiding Lord here. The tower of this temple is very tall (160 feet) built in typical Dravidian style seen in the Big Temple of Tanjavur and Airaveteswara of Darasuram and that of Gangaikondacholapuram temple. Shiva's Consort, Dharmasamvardhini is seen in a separate temple. Outside this temple is seen the temple of Sarabeswarar with a seven-foot high idol of sarabeswara in the form of a Sarabha, a fusion of man. lion and eagle. He has four arms wielding an axe,a deer, flame and a serpent. He looks very ferocious putting his foot on Lord Narasimha who lies at his feet with folded hands.Lord Shiva took the form of Sarabha to control the destructive rage of Lord Narasimha who was not able to control his anger after slaying Hiranyakasipu. A metal idol of Sarabhswarar is seen near the idol. We do not find a separate temple for Sarabheswarar in other temples anywhere else.In this temple saraba Homam is done every day. Many devotees worship Lord Sarabeswarar to get rid of harmful effects of black magic, legal problems, marriage problems and to get progeny. They do eleven pradakshinams and light eleven lamps for eleven weeks to get their desires fulfilled.The form of Sarabeswarar is a fusion of four gods-- Shiva, Durga, Kaali and Vishnu. We find a huge crowd during the thirteenth day of full moon or new moon.Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Ashtami are also good for performing Sarabeswara Pooja. Brahmotsavam is celebrated for 18 days during Panguni (March-April) and Saraba Utsav is done on Sunday. Just like Mahatyangira Temple of Ayyavadi, this temple is also unique as we do not find any specific temple for this very powerful and gracious Avatar of Shiva, Lord Sarabeswarar. So do not miss the opportunity of visiting these two temples when you...

Kampaheswarar or known as Sarabeswarar is situated in the town of Thirubuvanam. The story behind this temple is Shiva relieved Kampa of a king(Varaguna Pandian) haunted by evil spirits when he killed a Brahmin by mistake. Caught with Brahmmahathi dosha, he came to Tiruvidaimarudur for worshipping the Lord, where the spirit left him and stood at the eastern entrance. Still he was trembling with fear of the spirit catching him again. Lord saved the king from trembling hence the name Kampahisvara. Hence, also known as Nadukkam Theertha Nayakan. The architecture of the temple is similar to the Big Temple at Thanjavur or Airavatesvara Temple at Darasuram. There is a separate Sannithi for Sarabeswarar. The Sarabeswarar is the mixture of man, eagle and lion. The Sarabeswarar is an avatar of Lord Shiva to cool the Narasimha after destroyed the Asura Hiranyakaskasan. It's belived that Sarabeswarar destroys all evils and enemies. Child boon, Marriage difficulties or problem in business do a pariharam in this Temple and you'll be blessed. Since its village temple, the opening time is bit late. I have added below the name and number of a gurukal, in case you need to perform pooja or pariharam, he might help you....
