Majority of the devotees are for relief from the adverse effects of the serpent planets Rahu and Ketu. After installing Lord Kalathinathar, devotees wished to install Mother Ambica. Many idols were made but none was perfect. For quite long years, the temple remained without Ambica. Appearing in the dream of a devotee, Lord Shiva said that Ambica would emerge from Mullaiperiyaru River. During floods, a basket came floating with Ambica idol. Their joy knowing no bounds, devotees, named Her Gnanambika after the name of the Ambica in Kalahasthi temple in north. Some scars caused through the tossing of flood waters are still visible on Ambica
