The Presiding Deity of Sri Someswara is considered as an incarnation of Lord Shiva and he is seen in the Sanctum Sanctorum in the form of an East facing Swayambu Shivalingam.

The Presiding Deity is smaller here when compared to the other Pancharama Kshethrams. On top of the Shiva’s Shrine Goddess Annapurna’s Shrine could be seen.
