Poosam star people praying when they have planetary afflictions, handicapped issues and leg pain, removes debt burdens in addition to removal of obstacles in wedding proposals for remedy.
Abishek to Sani Bhagwan (planet Saturn) with eight objects as oil, panchamirtham, punugu a cosmetic paste, green coconut, milk, curd etc is highly recommended. They also have to ensure circumambulation of the shrine eight times. This will reduce the impact of Sani Bhagwan.
When his leg was affected, Saturn worshipped Akshaya Purreswarar in this temple. This star is eighth in the list of 27 stars. When people pray here on the star day or on the Akshaya Tthritiya day falling in the month of April-May, they gain prosperity and health in life.
He is all merciful when he graces in the temple with His consorts Jeshta and Mandha in wedding form in the name of Aadhibruhat Saneeswara. Mother Abhivruddhi Nayaki (mother granting all progress in life) ensures all development in life. While there is no Navagraha in the temple, Sani Baghwan and His Father Sun grace from their respective shrines. Lord Vinayaka is praised as Vijaya Vinayaka.
When His son, Yama the God of Death hit Him on His leg and he became lame and he began a pilgrimage to Shiva temples for remedy. At this place he fell down struck by the roots of Vila tree on a Saturday combined with Poosam star and Akshaya Thrithiya. By the impact of his fall, the spring Poosa Gnanavavi, hidden till then, rose with force and took Him up. Lord Akshaya Pureeswara granted darshan to Him and blessed Sani with wedding with his leg becoming normal. As a combination of Vila tree and the Gnanavari spring, the place came to be known as Vilankulam.
