Purana says that Sivanesa chettiar and his wife Gnanabalambikai had a son named Thiruven Kadar, who was in Gurukulam of Sivachariyar of Thiruvenkadu. Thiruvenkadar had his Siva Deeksha from Sivachariyar and worshipped Lord Siva. Thiruvenkadar got married to Sivakalai and with the blessings of Lord Mahadevar; he had a son named Marudhavanar. Once after his trading, Marudhavanar returned home in his ship, full of husk. Madruhavanar, took Sanyasa ashram and composed songs, about Lord Siva, in the name of Pattinathaar. We see a separate sanctum for him, in this temple.This is the birth place of Pattinathaar and in Thiruvotriyoor, we see his Siva Samadhi.
