Poopathi - பூப்பதி
Ayya Vaikundar spent his last six years at Swamithoppu. He lived a normal life. He owned fields and groves. He also maintained cattle. Boomadevi known as Poomadanthai was a little girl living at a place near Eathamozhi. Some devotees wanted to unite this divine couple; but there was stiff opposition from the relatives of the girl. Poomadanthai was chanting the praise of Ayya Vaikundar and proved that she was extraordinary.
Later, the relatives called Ayya Vaikundar to their village and gave the girl's hand in marriage to Ayya Vaikundar. Poomadanthai was happily united with Ayya Vaikundar. Ayya Vaikundar took rest there in a grove full of laurel trees. It was a beautiful place. The buds of this trees were like pearls and the place was very cool. Later, the devotees established a pathi at this place and it is called Poopathi. Festivals are conducted every year and this temple is owned by the village and maintained by a village committee.
