'''Vasishta Nadi''', named after the Hindu sage [[Vasishtha]], originates from [[Salem, Tamil Nadu|Salem]] district, flows through [[Kurchi]], [[Belur, Tamil Nadu|Belur]], Yethapur,Pethanaickenpalayam, [[Attur]], [[Kattukottai]], [[Manivizhundhan North between South]], [[Deviyakurichi]], [[Pattuthurai]], [[Thalaivasal]], [[Aragalur]], [[Sitheri]] and [[Cuddalore]] district. This river flows in [[Tiruchirapalli]] and joins [[Sweata Nadi]] before flowing into the [[Bay of Bengal]]. Dams on the river are located at Attur and [[Periyeri]]. [[dam|Check dams]] are constructed at Attur, Thalivasal and Periyeri/Aragalur.

Like many seasonal rivers in Tamil Nadu, [[soil erosion]] is a major concern for many parts of this river due to legal/illegal extensive [[sand mining]] for [[concrete]].

'''The Vellar system''' consists of the Vasishta Nadi and Sweata Nadi, which drain two parallel valleys running east and west in Attur taluk, former carrying off the drainage of [[Kalrayan Hills]] and the latter carrying the [[Kolli Hills]] and Pachamalais.

There are 12 Siva temples located on villages through which this river flows. These include the panchaboodhas (Five [[Classical Elements]] or [[Tattva]]): Belur Sri [[Thanthondreeswarar Temple (Belur, Salem)|Thanthondreeswarar]] (தான்தோன்றீஸ்வரர்) (land), Ethapur Sambamoortheeswarar (சாம்பமூர்த்திஸ்வரர்) (water), Attur Kottai Kayanirmeshwarar (Fire), Aragalur Kamanadeshwarar (Air) & Koogayur Swarnapurieswarar (Sky).
