Periya Jeeyer and his pAdharEka VanamAmalai Jeeyer reached Thirunagari, bathed 
in the sangani thurai, did the appropriate anushtAnams and then proceeded to do 
mangalAsAsanams to emperumAnAr starting with ?SrimAdhavAngri?.Then doing 
mangalAsAsanams to various sannadhi?s in order they went to the alwar sannadhi. 
Starting with ?mAthA pithA? and ending with ?pranamAmi moordhnA?, they did 
mangalAsAsanam to alwar and then proceeded to the mutt and stayed there for a 
few days.

Then with a deep wish to do mangalAsAsanam to vanamamalai perumal both of them 
proceeded towards vanamamalai, bathed in the settruthAmarai (temple tank), 
finished appropriate anushtanams, then went to deivanAyakan sannadhi and did 
mangalAsAsanam reciting, ?nOttra nOnbillEn? and ?kadhA punas sanga?..? 
(Aalavandaar?s strotra ratnam) and then prostrated under the divine feet of 
vAnamAmalai perumal, deivanAyagan. They had the divine darshan of the beautiful 
lotus-like sweet eyes which pierces into one?s mind,the coral-like lips, strong 
shoulders, divine feet with a beautiful noopuram, the divine crown and all 
other divya Abharanams (Jewels) and the divinebeauty throughout from top to 
bottom. Their mouth then uttered alwar?s enchanting paasuram, ?Ar enakku nin 
pAdhamE sharanAga than thozhindhAi, vunakkOr kaimmAru nAn ondrilEn enadhAviyum 
vunadhE, serukol karumbum perunsennellum malindhan sreevara mangai, nAru 
poonthandhuzhAi mudiyAi deivanAyaganE?. Periya Jeeyer uttered these lines and 
his eyes filled with tears and loosing himself he stood in front of perumal.

Perumal pleased with the deep involvement of periya Jeeyer told him with 
happiness, ?You have given me one beloved person just like you for my 
kainkaryam. I have attained the benefit for bringing him up? and then 
blessedhim with thirumAlai, thiruparivattam, srisadagopan, prasadam and other 
honors and also showered his fullest grace on him. Then Periya Jeeyer took the 
permission of perumal, came out along with his shisya and proceeded to the mutt.

Periya Jeeyer consecrated the aranganagarappan gifted to vanamamalai Jeeyerby 
Periya perumal in the mutt with his own hands and ordered vanamamalai Jeeyer to 
do thiruvArAdhanam daily and blessed him to remain with glory, with number of 
shisyas and thereby work for the flourishment of sath sampradayam (ramanuja 
darshanam). After staying in vanamamalai for a few more days they went to 
thirukkurungudi did mangalAsAsanam to nambi and then returned back to 
vanamamalai. There they stayed for 3 more days in the service ofdeivanAyakan 
and then once again started to alwar thirunagari and enjoyed the divine service 
of alwar for six months considering days to run like seconds.

Then Periya Jeeyer told vanamamalai Jeeyer, ?You follow my orders and stay in 
vanamamalai and do all types of kainkaryam to deivanAyaka perumal and live 
happily?. Shocked to hear this, but not being able to refute his acharyas words 
but very very sad to think of separating from his acharya, vanamamalai Jeeyer 
was soaked in sorrow. When ????
