Arulmigu Sri Masani Amman Temple is the canonical temple identity for this guide, centred on Masani Amman / Mayana Sayani.

The source derives Masani from Mayana Sayani, the Goddess reclining in a cremation-ground setting, and presents her as a justice-protecting form of Adi Parashakti. These are sacred and local traditions.

Local narratives connect the shrine with an unjustly executed woman under King Nannan and, in a separate tradition, with a sand image made by Rama. Both are attributed narratives rather than verified historical events.

Editorial classification: Sacred narratives, miracle language, healing traditions, Shakti Peetha associations, promised blessings and ancient-age claims are presented as traditional or attributed claims, not independently verified facts.

The source describes ancient and Sangam-era associations for Anaimalai and a temple tradition of more than a millennium. Exact age statements are treated cautiously where documentary dating is not supplied.

The Dravidian complex centres on a rare reclining Goddess image, a trident before the sanctum, the Neethi Kal justice stone, well water and multiple subsidiary Goddess and guardian shrines.

Approach Anaimalai from Pollachi and use the current temple entrance and queue. Any justice offering or special worship must be handled only through authorised temple guidance.
