Sri Krupapureeswarar Temple is located in Tiruvennai Nallur, Viluppuram , TamilNadu. This Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva and is one among 275 Shiva Sthalams. This Temple is one among Naadu Nadu Shiva Sthalams.

Lord Shiva is a swayambumurthy in the temple. It is in this historical temple that Lord Shiva appeared as an old man claiming Sundarar his attendant on his wedding day. After a long dispute and a Panchayat on the issue, Lord took Sundarar to his home in Tiruvennainallur and disappeared near the sanctum sanctorum of the temple leaving His footwear-Padukas- at the entrance.

The Padukas are still in the temple for the darshan of the devotees. What is noteworthy in this episode is the procedure followed in settling a dispute. Divine poet Sekkizhar in his Periapuranam describes the scene. Heated arguments were exchanged between the old man-Lord Shiva and Sundarar. The judicial system in deciding a dispute should be under three main principles

Lord Shiva blesses the devotees with total mental peace, oratory skill and excellence in education, above all His full blessings.  Polla Pillayar in the temple is not a man-made idol but a swyambu.

The Rishis of Tharukavana grew proud of their penance and conducted a yajna to destroy Lord Shiva.  But the Lord absorbed their evil designs and kept them under His control.  The Rishis realized their folly, performed penance and were forgiven by the Lord.

This is also a story behind the name of the name of the Temple TiruArul Thurai ? Place of Blessings.  As He showered His Krupa-forgiveness, the Lord is praised as Krupapureeswarar.
