Abstract
Devotional literature helped to spread the vegan and Vaishnava religions during the period when Palki was growing in Tamil literature. Devotional literature considered the Pancha Bhootas to be a form of deity. It is said that the Lord is the Panchaputra. In the Twelve Trimesters the messages that the Lord has the attributes of the five elements of land, water, air, fire, and sky are subtly highlighted. The Saiva devotees went to the Pancha Bhootas site and worshiped the Lord. These temples were the backdrop for the construction of the temples. The gist of this article is that it highlights the cults of the Saiva devotees in a way that illustrates the glories and specialties of each temple.
