The Formation of 'Appu Lingam' (Parvathi’s Penance):
thiruvanaikaval temple history in tamil or thiruvanaikaval jambukeshwara temple history is Once Devi Parvati mocked at Lord Shiva’s penance for betterment of the World. Lord Shiva wanted to condemn her act and directed her to
go to the earth from 'Kailayam' and do penance. Devi Parvathi (Akilandeswari) as per Shiva's wish found 'Jambu' forest (Thiruvanaikoil) to
conduct her penance. Devi made a Lingam out of water of river Cauvery (also called as river 'Ponni') under the 'Venn Naaval' tree (the Venn Naaval tree on top of the saint Jambu) and commenced her worship. So, the Lingam is known as 'Appu Lingam' (Water Lingam).
Lord Siva at last gave darshan to Akilandeswari and taught her Siva Gnana.
Devi Parvati took 'Upadesa' (lessons) facing East from Shiva, who stood facing West.
So as the thiruvanaikaval jambukeshwara temple idols are also installed in the same direction. Such places are known as 'Upadesa Sthalams'.
As the thiruvanaikaval akilandeswari was like a student and the Lord like a Guru in this temple,
there is no 'Thiru Kalyanam' (marriage) conducted in this temple for Lord & the Devi, unlike the other Shiva temples.
