Sub: Sri RenganAthar as ThiruvEnkatamudaiyAn Dear bhAgavathAs, here adiyEn wants to share one event with you all. There was an araiyar swami who daily recites the Alwar hymns infront of Sri RenganAthar. One day, the araiyar swamin desired to worship ThiruvEnkatamudaiyAn at Thirumalai. As usual after completing araiyar sEvai, araiyar swamin requested Sri RenganAthar to allow him to visit Thirumalai to worship ThiruvEnkatamudaiyAn. But Sri RenganAthar said " You can visit Thirumalai, but before going there, You recite the AmalanAdhipirAn pAsurams by ThiruppAnAlwar " So araiyar swamin recites the AmalanAdhipirAn first pAsuram "AmalanAdhipirAn adiyArkku ennai.........." Then he starts second pAsuram "Uvantha ullathinai ulagam......". Then he started reciting third pAsuram "Manthipaai vadavEnkata mAmalai, vaanavargal santhiseiya ninrAn arangatharavinanaiyAn......." He sang with thAlam as "santhiseiya ninrAn arangatharavinanaiyAn, arangatharavinanaiyAn ninrAn.." Then araiyar swamin stops reciting the pAsuram and says to Sri RenganAthar that he is not going to Thirumalai to worship ThiruvEnkatamudaiyAn. Now Sri RenganAthar asked araiyar swamin about the reason. Araiyar swamin says that " From ThiruppAnAlwar pAsuram, its clear that only the Lord Sri RenganAthar who descends from Sri Vaikuntam through Satya lokam, stands for a while at Thirumalai to rest finally at Sri Rangam. (santhiseiya ninrAn arangatharavinanaiyAn.......) So SrI RanganAthar only stands at Thirumalai as ThiruvEnkatamudaiyAn. Hence adiyen stops thiruvEnkata yAthra!". Now srI RenganAthar laughed for a while and replied to araiyar swamin that " Eventhough its said that all the 4000 pAsurams are available for me, why should I insist you to hymn ThiruppanAlwar pAsuram is, thats the reason!".
