TIRUMOGUR
This Divya shetram is located 10 Kms near Madurai. The moolavar is Kaalamega Perumal in a standing posture, and the Thayar Mohanavalli. The Theertham is Ksheerapti pushkarini and the Vimanam Ketaki Vimanam.
The legend has it that Vishnu in the Mohini avataram distributed the celestial nectar Amritam to the Devas, and hence this place is also called Mohanashetram. It is also believed that Pulastya Muni had the vision of the Lord at this shetram.
Azhwar Mangalaasaasanam:
Tirumangai Azhwar ? 2673
Nammaazhwar
? 3783-93 (pasuram number as found in Naalaayira Divya prabhandam). The temple has beautiful carvings and the idol of Chakratazhwar is one of the masterpieces. During the Brahmotsavam in Vaikasi Mohini avataram is being enacted.
