The main deity of this Temple is Guruvayoorappan (Sreekrishna the ninth incarnation of GOD Mahavishnu).
The idol of the deity of this temple was worshiped by Vasudevar (Father of Bhagavan Sreekrishna) and Devaki (Mother of Bhagavan Sreekrishna) when they were in Dwaraka. At the end of Dwapara Yugam the idol was almost lost in the mountainous waves of the flood (Pralayam) then there appeared GOD Shiva who called on and insisted GURU and VAYU to find a suitable place and install the IDOL therefore the devout generations to come and pray. Since the place where they had installed the most sacred IDOL it is called "GURUVAYOOR", the place of GURU and VAYU.
