He even didn\u2019t take proper food and slept properly but always kept thinking about his mind temple and worshiping the god from his mind itself.  He also provided food to the devotees of Lord Shiva, and attended them in a proper manner. Even though, he didn\u2019t physically worship the god in the temples, and physically served food to the shiva devotees, due to his sincere devotion on god, he attained <strong>MUKTHI<\/strong> and reached the abode of Lord Shiva, the kailash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sundarar\">Sundarar<\/a>\u00a0praises Vayilar nayanar as the precious gem among the nayanars, and tells that the nayanar saint didn\u2019t cared about his handicap in the body but always thought and worshiped Lord Shiva from his mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A shrine is dedicated to Vayilar in the Kapaleeshwarar Temple in Mylapore.
