Sthalasayana Perumal ,Krupa Samudra perumal,Tirusirupiuliyur Divaya desam

Tirusirupuliyur divyadesam is the place where Lord Vishnu appeared  as Krupa Samudran and gave shelter to Adisesha when there was a fight between Garuda and Serpent God as to who provided better service to Lord. Finding Garuda to be little arrogant Vishnu ruled in favour of Adisesha. Fearing an angry reaction from Garuda he took shelter at this place. The God allowed him to coil below Him  and Garuda decided not to fly above this region.
As Adisesha is given a special place above Garuda this temple is also a place to worship for Naga dosha and kalasarpa dosha.

 This is also the place where Lord appeared as bala sayanam kolam to sage Vyagrapada understanding very well that  he would not be able to see the huge form of Lord because of his poor eye sight. Here in the sanctum we see a Bala Ranganatha.
Temple is near 17 Kms from Mayiladuthurai in a small village.
