Mother Devi Karumari Amman is facing east.  Westward Lord Vedapureeswarar shrine under the Vilwa tree, southward Lord Dakshinamurthy with His four disciples, Mother Durga facing North, Rahu and Ketu, Lord Vinayaka and Lord Muruga facing east and Sri Anjaneya facing north are the other shrines in the temple.

Devotees come in large numbers to the temple and pray for the removal hurdles in marriage proposals and talks, seek child boon in Rahu-Ketu shrine.  They believe that all prosperity would come to them by their surrender at Mother’s feet.

There is also an Ant Hill (Puttru in Tamil) shrine in the temple.  Lord Shiva from His Shrine is facing west.  Mother Karumari Amman is worshipped as Nitya Kalyani in the temple.  Carrying fire pots (Agni Chatti) is not followed in the temple.  There are two Anjaneyas here.

It was a vacant site sixty years ago.  Poor people were staying here. Mother Devi appeared in the dream of one staying there and said that She would come there as a snake and people should install Her idol there.  Sooner an entrance structure was put.  While the pujas were on, a snake would appear there at about 12.00 a.m.  As many deers (Maan in Tamil) were wandering there in the past, the place was named Maan Kadu.  The temple was built in the year 1952.
