God Ramachandraji built the 'siva linga' as thanks to God Siva on the souther coast of India with sand, the temple presently called as Rameshwaram temple, and the deity called as 'Sykata lingam'. The meaning of 'sykatam' a Sanskrit word is 'sand'.

As the establishment of temple was due to the step taken by God Rama the temple is called 'Rameshwaram temple'. It is also built to please the enemy Ravanasura who was slain by Rama, as the former was a great devote of God Siva.
