Legends
Bade Sahib was born a Muslim but grew up to be an ardent devotee of Lord Arunachala. Lord Arunachala - pleased with Bade Sahib's devotion appeared in person. He is calm and composed. He used to sit under Magizha Tree and do the medications to the people visiting him. He is a great Healer who has lived and attained Samadhi 145 years before. Still Villagers around stay at the Ashram overnight to pray for healing of chronic ailments and many regularly seek his blessings.





The Temple
The Samadhi of Bade Sahib is not covered by any of the solid materials. Even today it just filled by the soil. People belief here that the Bade Sahib would return one day for sure and hence no structure has been raised around the tomb of Sri Bade Saheb. There is a temple of Lord Arunachala and Abithakuchamba adjoining the Jeeva Samadhi. The Sthala Vriksham is Nagalinga maram. There is also a Magizhampoo Maram in the temple which is of special significance. The Siva Lingam is unique in that the forms of two eyes, Trishul, Pillaiyar, Ambal, Kala Bhairava can be identified on the face of the Lingam.
