While detailed historical accounts are not extensively available, its existence reflects the rich spiritual traditions of North Malabar. As a Vishnu temple, it is a focal point for devotees seeking blessings from Lord Vishnu, the preserver in the Hindu trinity. The presence of other deities like Durga and Shiva also suggests a harmonious blend of different traditions within the temple complex.
Festivals
The Temple has a number of festivals. The important ones are :
Annual Festival
The temple celebrates its Annual Festival in the Malayalam month of Medam (typically April-May). This is the most important annual event, drawing devotees from the locality and beyond for special prayers, rituals, and possibly cultural programs that are characteristic of temple festivals in Kerala.
Daily Poojas / Offerings
While a second large-scale annual festival isn't explicitly detailed, the regular practice of Daily Poojas (Usha Pooja in the morning, Ucha Pooja at noon, and Athazha Pooja in the evening) and specific offerings (such as Pushpanjali for Vishnu temples) are central to the temple's daily devotional life and are considered significant for regular devotees. These daily rituals maintain the sanctity and spiritual vibrance of the temple.
