Chemmappilly, Thrissur district, Kerala · 10.4314°, 76.1144°
A west-facing Shiva temple at Chemmappilly, about three kilometres from the Thriprayar temple, once owned by a Namboothiri illam and now under the Cochin Devaswom Board. The annual Vavu bali offering to ancestors is performed here.
What follows is the temple’s own traditional account, transmitted through liturgy and local memory. It is recorded here as tradition, not as attested history.
The Thriprayar Thevar is said never to have passed Aneswaram silently on his village circuit, because this deity had once lent him paddy and coconut.
