Arunachalesvara Temple

Situated at the base of Annamalai Hills in Tamilnadu, this temple is dedicated to the Agni Linga form of Bhagwaan Shankar. It is believed that Mahadev graces this place in his Ardhanarishwar form.

According to the Pauranik text, once Bhagwaan Brahma and Bhagwaan Vishnu got into a debate over who is more important for the functioning of the universe. When the debate could not be settled, Mahadev appeared between them in the form of an endless pillar of fire.

Both Brahmadev and Bhagwaan Vishu could not locate the ends of this fire pillar, however in order to prove his superiority Brahmadev lied. Mahadev got angry at this lie. He took the form of Kaal-Bhairav and cut one of the heads of Brahmadev.
