Dikshidars are brahmin scholar-priests of the temple mostly found in Chidambaram. They are the hereditary priests for Chidambaram Nataraja Temple and some other temples. They are different from the usual Gurukkal community which is a sub-caste of Vadamas of Iyer community.

Dikshidrs are very orthodox and traditional families observing various daily routines such like pujas, Sandhya vandanam etc. The women of this section were married off at the age of 8-10 in olden days but now the situation have changed and they are married mostly at the age of 16 - 18 only. They wear nose rings on both sides of the nose and also long Saree - madisar as a mark of married women.

Now a days the situation is getting changed and many of them have gone for higher studies and graduated in differ net lines. They are also engaged in different profession and employments...

NB- I am not getting any website to explain their traditions etc. and I have written whatever known to me.
