Sthala Puranam:
In this place Udhanga Maharishi and king Uparisaravasu got the darshan of the Lord as he is in Vaikunda Loga. So, the pious river Viraja which is considered to run across the border of Vaikunda loga is the theertham here. To attain Vaikunda is to attain life without rebirth, and the perumal of this kshetram would bless one if we offer our true self.
