Subject: kaN sOra.../sAra -10 (CONCLUDES) http://www.pbase.com/image/56421497 aDiyEn concludes this series now and submits this at the thiruvaDigaL of bhAgavathAs. (Please download the E-book from this group/ or write to aazhwar@xxxxxxxxx) I thank ThiruchERai SrEvaishNavites , especially ThriuchERai Narayanan who was the one who linked me to ThiruchERai. I thank moderators of yahoogroups, who made this possible to be spread over the globe. Finally some unique facts on ThriuchERai. http://www.pbase.com/svami/image/56631544 1. This is termed as sAra shEthram -sAra pushKaraNi, Sara vimanam, Sara nAdhan, SaraNayakith Thayar. 2. This is one of the two Great ThriuMozhis- talking of servitude to bhagavathas and is categorised into elite class alongiwth ThiruvAimozhi 'payilum sudaroLi and nedumArkadimia in The great AchArya Hrdhayam. The other Thriumzohi is 'nannAdh vAL avunar' 2- 6 of Periya thriumzohi. 3.Here kAvErith thAyar is along the pushkaraNai and her grief was assuaged by Lord krshNA himself. 4. There are two deities here one is sAranathan and the other is bAla-sAra nAdhan. When Sri SAranAdhan is busy the other perumAL is adorned.This is regular in utsavam-s. In SamprokshNam also when Sri SaraNadhan was in the forefront of the yAga salai that is the yAga salai being kept in front of perumAL bAla sAranAthan was decorated as Vennaikku ADum kaNNan and the wonderful Lord in the sitting posture. 5. The sayanth ThriukkOlam has been done on Al-ilai itself.Sir RamuDu bhattar mentioned that this is the usal procedure followed in the earlier days.That is no special bed or pillow are used. The sleeping beauty is a Adum kaNNan vigraham from inside another sannidhi. 6.,The Gopalan legend. When the king who was constructing temple for MannAr kuDi was despatching materials to MannAr kUdi, one of the devotees of this divya-dhEsam, downloaded some materials from each despactch.When the king came to know of this, he visited ThiruchERai and EmperumAn in supoort of his devotee, took the form of GopAlan and this is the vigraham perhaps from that legend., 7.The rAmar vigrham is very old and the beauty of the work is 'seen to be believed' 8.The archakas should be commeneded for Sathupadi with great zest and also their devotion towards aruLichcheyal. 9.The key on the laps is not unique in this part of TamilnAdu. However, it is pertinent to note that the keys are in the hips of thAyar in the nearby nAchiyAr Koil. 10. Sri NElAdhEvi is a prominent thAyar here. The pancha lakshmi-s here are ubaya nAchiyAr-s, sAra-lakshmi, nElAdhEvi- ThirumArbu lakshmi. Perhaps - since nElAdhEvi being here - no ANDAL sannidhi was here for a long time. Some years back, ANDAL sannidhi has been consecreated on the west side of the sannidhi. I thank all the SrEvaishNavites of the Lord of ThriuchERai.
