There is a Hayagriva Sannadhi at Aaushadagiri hillock where Swami Desika worshipped Garuda and Hayagriva. Lord Hayagriva appeared and blessed Swami Desika. There is a Sannadhi for Swami Desika in the temple. The Theerthavari and Malai uthsavam during purattasai (Sept - Oct) are important festivals. As this sthala was conceived and constructed by Adisesha, the place is called Tiru Aheendrapuram. Garuda and Adisesha brought the Vraja (Garudanadhi) and Patala Ganga (Sesha) Theerthams for the Lord and are used for Abhishek and for making Prasadams respectively.
This place is about 5 kms from Tiruppapuliyur station on the Madras - Trichy main line.(near Pondicherry).
