History of Grama Temple
Lord Somanath is said to be the guarding God of the village and family God for Bollollimaru guthu in permude village. At least, once in a year, the family members are supposed to worship in this temple. In this temple, lord ganesha, goddess vanadurga and lord somanath exists and are being worshipped. Some ofthe Poojas like Rudrabhisheka, hoovina(flower) Pooja, ranga Pooja, yekadasharudrabhisheka Pooja and shatha rudrabhisheka Pooja are performed. As lord shiva is verymuch fond of abhisheka, they need Bonda Seeyala. People do even offer til oil (yellu yenne) to the lord.
On the day of sankranthi, they perform saamuhika gana homa to the lord ganesha. On the day of navarathri, lalitha panchami hoovina Pooja is being performed to the goddess vanadurge.
