Cherpulassery ins an important town of Valluvanadu, and is between Pattambi and Perinthalmanna. It has one very famous Ayyappan temple. Here Swamy Ayyappan is with his wife Prabha devi and son Sathyaka. This temple is called as Sabarimala of Malabar as well as Sabarimala of women. This is one of the 108 Ayyappa temples consecrated by Lord Parsaurama,It seems Dharma Sastha ascended the throne of this temple after gaining mastery in Vedas ad so many people bring their children for Vidhatambham at this temple.There is an interesting story about its origin, It seems ten Nambhudiri families were living near this temple.One of them started praying the Dharma Sastha at Thiruvullakavu sastha temple at Peruvanam for the birth of a child to them .On the day he completed his penance when he had decided to return back, he saw a black stone near him, which was not there before. As he was a scholar he could find out that it was Dharma Sastha himself. So with the rice and Jaggery that he had , he prepared Ada and offered it to the idol .He indeed got a son who became a mendicant and passed away.Since there was no one in his family , his manager converted their residence in to the present temple ,The Gaeden of Jasmine maintained by the Nambudiri became the sanctum sanctorum of the temple. Nava Grahas , Ganapathy, Brahma Rakshas and Nagaraja are the upra devathas of this temple.
