Legend:Cheerumba Bhagavathi also known as Kali appeared from Lord Parameshwara's tear falling on his thigh. She was born to kill Darukasura, a demon who was harassing all people, saints and even Devas. She killed Daruka after severe fight. Then she came to this world through a divineship as advised by Lord Shiva to eliminate evil and thereby save and nourish good i.e., as Dushta Samharini and Shista Paripalini. Thus, Shree CheerumbaBhagavathi came to this world along with Shree Eleya Bhagavathi, Dandaraja, Kandakarna, Parivara Daiva Guliga and placed at Kodungalloor as her abode to stay permanently. She has been blessing and looking after the welfare of millions of her devotees, since then.
