Goddess Kannudaya Nayaki is a swayambumurthi. People seek remedies for their vision problems, for child boon, progress in education and removal of obstacles in marriage alliances. 2 km South of Nattarasankottai, there are some villages in the forest area called Pirandakulam, Allur and Panangadi. Buttermilk vendors from these villages could not proceed after a particular point as they were hit by some power and lost the buttermilk and had to go back with empty hands. Scared and confused, they took the matter to the king in Sivaganga. A day before their meeting with the king, Goddess appeared in his dream and told him that She was under the earth in Pirandakulam village near a jack tree. The king told the people of his dream and went along with them to the place mentioned by the Goddess. He asked the people to dig the place. While one man was engaged the work, the crowbar hit his eye causing bleeding. While other man offered to continue the work, the fist man said that he would do it himself and brought the idol out. The moment, the idol came out of the earth, his eye injury was completely cured and bleeding stopped. As the Goddess restored his vision, She was named Kannathal, the Goddess who gave eyes. Eye in Tamil means Kan.
