Located on East Coast Road in Karuvadikuppam (Lawspet area), the Arulmigu Srimath Guru Sithanantha Swamigal Devasthanam is a revered spiritual pilgrimage site in Puducherry. It is built around the Jeeva Samadhi of the 19th-century saint Guru Sithanantha Swamigal, who attained Samadhi here in 1837. Known for its deeply peaceful atmosphere, expansive green temple grounds, and sacred pond, the temple is a prime center for quiet meditation and prayer. Special poojas and heavy crowds draw spiritual seekers particularly on Thursdays and during Guru Poornima.
