This temple is in woraiyur ,and there is no shelter for goddess.
Amman is facing north side and it is believed by ancient kings that gods and goddess who is facing north will bless the kings with victory in battle.
Hence kings worship this temple before going to battle.
Sarama rishi lived in woraiyur having wonderful garden,with rare flowers.He used to worship thayumanavar swamy of trichy everyday offerring garland made of flowers from garden.
A local florist pranthakan saw beauty of flowers,and started taking from the garden ,to keep himself in good book of the king.
The sage found that he is culprit and complained to king.King did not hear this.
With much grief sage went to Thayumanavar praying to put an end to his activity.
Lord turned wild after hearing this and god was facing east till then ,he turned facing west with powerful eyes emitting anger which resulted in huge sand storm and spoiling whole city.
All places were covered with sand and all went to goddess and prayed.
Goddess prayed to thayumanavar to subside his anger ,and storm stopped,many houses were without shelters.
hence goddess decided to live in a temple without roof,until everyone gets shelter.
