This Temple is also called as Sri Raja Kuberar Siddhar Peedam or Dhana Viruksha Raja Kubera Sthalam. It is located on the Bangalore - Chennai National Highway at a place called Vellaigate. This is the Temple where Lord Shiva and Kuberan are found together in the Sanctum Sanctorum. The Main Temple is slightly away from the Main Road and is East facing whereas the Moolasthanam is North facing. On entering there is a East facing Sub Shrine for Agasthiyar and special prayers are done for Him first when the Temple is opened in the Morning. Close to this is a Sub Shrine known as Thirayambikainathar Mangala Peedam wherein Maha Vishu, Shiva and Brahmma are found with their respective Consorts Mahalakshmi, Parvathy and Saraswathy. This is the only Temple where these three Gods along with their Consorts are found in a single stone. There are 9 steps leading to the Sanctum Sanctorum but none are generally allowed to climb through the steps. Only those who follow certain Viratham are allowed to climb through them. The rest could reach the Moolasthanam through two other laterel steps found on either side. A pair of Kubera Paadam which are the Divine feet of Kuberan is found. Sanga Nidhi and Paduma Nidhi are found as Dwara Baalakas. The Presiding Deity of Lord Kuberan is measured to by around 6 feet. Hence those who follow a strict Viratham of 6 weeks are supposed to come here and offer a Athirasa Maalai or a Garland made of Athirasam. It is believed that such Devotees would acquire all those that they wish. In the Sanctum Sanctorum a huge Idol of Lord Shiva measuring around 11 feet is found to the rear of the Raja Kuberan Vigraham. The walls of the Sanctum Sanctorum has several Idols of horses around it. The external Gopuram on top of the Moolasthanam is beautifully painted in golden colour. Around the Moolasthanam the Temple has 18 well carved pillars and in each of these 18 pillars the images of Sattainathar, Pathanjali, Sivavakiya Siddhar, Kamalamuni, Gorakkar, Bhogar, Ramadevar, Dhanvanthri, Kuthmbai, Karuvurar, Idaikaadar, Vaanmegar, Pambatti Siddhar, Konganavar, Sundaranandar, Machamuni, Agasthiyar. There are two important Sub Shrines in this Temple. In one of these Uchista Ganapathy is seen along with His Consort. In the other Shrine Lord Murugan is seen here as Selva Murugan and He is found with a bag of Currencies. At the rear of the Moolasthanam is a Dyana Mandapam and close to it there are Idols of Ganapathy and Sai Baba. Most of the Temple premises has a Tin Sheet roofing to safeguard the Devotees from the vagaries of Nature. A Temple Office functions within the same premises. There is a Temple Kitchen or a Madapalli where they serve Prasadam and Annadhanam to all visiting Devotees. Since this Temple is located close to the National Highway there is a steady stream of Devotees trickling in tandem. During National Holidays and other auspicious days this Temple attracts an overwhelming number of Devotees from far and near. This Temple has been built on the initiative of its founder Sri Raja Kubera Siddhar and he has to be lauded for his wonderful efforts in spreading Spirituality.
