*Dakshinamurthy Temple, Myladatturai*

Dakashina murthy temple in Myladatturai 40 kms from Thiruvarur, Tamil Nadu.On the bank of river cauvery .

Dakshinamurthy is called as Lord Vathanyeshwara deity is facing South & his consort Gnanambika Ambal is facing west. Once Rishabha Deva felt proud that he was great as he was carrying Lord Shiva on his back. So Shiva thought of teaching him a lesson. One day, Shiva placed a strand from his matted hair on Rishaba. But he was unable to bear the weight of a strand of Shiva’s hair. Then he realized his mistake. He prostrated before the lord and sought forgiveness. Then Shiva not only pardoned him but also initiated him into the divine wisdom. Hence lord Shiva took the form of guru and Rishaba Deva continued to serve him as his mount and asked Rishaba Deva to be in the river Cauvery. He also directed Ganga river to flow into cauvery on new moon day in the Tamil month of Alpasi. Hence the river at this place came to be known as Rishabha Theertham.

Dakashinamurthy is Adiguru as all gotras begins from him. Shaivites call as Dakshinamurthy where as Vaishnavites refer to Hayagriva. Dakshinamurthy is in sitting posture with his right hand in chinmudra, left hand holding books.Unique feature of this temple is- the lord is sitting on Nandi and preaching Rishabha Deva who is seated in front of him. The tank adjoining the temple is also called Gnanamrutha Saras or Pancha Brahma Teertham.
