A few years ago, this place was a dilapidated ancestral home surrounded by Kavus and ponds, devoid of prosperity and without any worship, rituals, or the temple complex seen today. It was also home to all the family members of Pulikkal Shankarodath Kovilakam. Valyambaratti Lakshmikutty Nambishtathiri (Ambika Thampurati), fondly known as Thangamaniamma Thampurati or “Muthassi Amma” (grandmother), attained the heavenly abode (merged with the lotus feet of Veeraporkkali) in the year 2019 (1195 ME).

She lost her mother at a very young age and was brought up by her Mathamahi (maternal grandmother). One day, driven by curiosity, she killed a golden snake that was crawling in the southern courtyard of the Pulikkal Shankarodath ancestral home. Already living in misery, the family soon slipped into even greater hardship.

As a young girl, Valyambaratti was afflicted with vitiligo (Chithradharan). At that time, marriage prospects for women were difficult, especially with such conditions. Therefore, remedial rituals (Podamuri) were performed to facilitate her marriage. Valyambaratti continued to suffer due to the malefic effects of Sarpa Dosha and Parambarya Dosha (hereditary curse). She followed the guidance of her gurus and knowledgeable astrologers, resumed the Upasana and Thevaram of her ancestors, and worshipped the Paradevathas and Gramadevathas. She also took care of the serpent deities in the Shankarodath household and offered prayers to the best of her ability.

With the efforts of the family patriarch—a soldier who had served in World War II—the Kovilakam became habitable, and the family began to live peacefully.

However, their misfortunes continued as all the male children in the family met with untimely deaths one after another. With the help of astrologers, the hidden history of the house was revealed, including the presence of Lord Nagamuthassan in the underground cellar (Nilavara). Upon learning this, Valyambaratti created a ritual for the worship of Lord Nagamuthassan and continued the practice with the blessings of Mannarasala Valyamma.

She tried hard to encourage her children to follow the path of traditional worship but was unsuccessful. However, the only son of Mallikakshi Nambishtathiri, also known as Mallika Varma (the second daughter), began the worship of Lord Nagamuthassan and revived the Kavu Upasana practiced by Thampurati.

Despite being discouraged by others who feared serpent worship, Unni continued his devoted rituals at the burrow (Putt) beneath the tamarind tree in the southern (Thekkini) courtyard. After a year, the burrow collapsed due to heavy rains, revealing a self-manifested (Swayambhu) stone. The present-day Vishwanagayakshi Temple stands on the foundation of this Swayambhu, which is the Chaitanyavakta (divine energy) of the temple.
