Beauty and holiness flows to a point where three rivers (Kaliyar, Kothayar and Thodupuzhayar) confluence naming the land Muvattupuzha(means joining of three rivers). Shining at this Thriveni's holy bank is the shrine of Puzhakkara kavu Devi blessing the worshippers benevolently. As per legends this temple is 2000 years old and the Devi here is 'Swayambhoo'(self-originated). Half a kilometer away from the busy noises of Muvattupuzha town, enchanting all people irrespective of caste and creed is the establishment of the Devi expressed in three styles. At dawn Devi is Sree Bhuvaneswary, afternoon she is Sree Vana Durga, and evening Sree Bhadra.In olden days the more wild tribes worshipped in this temple and gradually developed to the present situation. For years Thengode Mana was controlling the day to day affairs of the temple and in 1976 administration was vested to a local trust selected from the devotees. Shrine is constructed with granite and thatched with copper plate. Upper portion of the shrine is open for getting sunshine and rain. Devi takes ceremonial bath (Arattu) more than once in a year, which is a peculiarity of this temple. This is due to the flood which happens more than once in a year and the water enters the temple for Devi's arattu. Here Devi never goes to the river, river comes to her for her spectacular ceremonial bath. Holy ground of the shrine is covered with single granite blocks and the circumambulating path also is made with the same. Installed to the left side of the temple outside the sanctum sanctorum is the deities Ganapathy and Sastha, outside the pathway is the Serpent. Special poojas are conducted here during the auspicious day of aayillyam. Another important offer is "Chathusatham". This is done by submitting 101 naazhy (a measure) rice to Devi by the devotee and it is believed that she grants the desire fulfilled. "Swayamvara Parvathy Pooja" also is done here for getting desired marriage. Devi celebrates her birthday in the Malayalam month of Meenam, her birth star is Pooram and special poojas 'Ponkala, Annadana (feast for devotees) are conducted. On Pooram star of every month such poojas and annadana are done. Tuesday and Friday are special days of Devi. The 41 days of Mandala period is celebrated as the festival and seven days are specially celebrated. Irrespective of any religion all the people cooperate for the well-being of the temple and pray before the Devi for their needs. A Muslim family blessed by Devi many years back has been given the right for 'Vedivazhipadu' (fire cracking) even now. A devotee from Tamilnadu donated the giant elephant barn during 1092 of Malayalam era. Thanthri is Parameswaran Nampoothiri of Kavanad Illam from Irinjalakuda.
