Swamy's Kainkaryams
Andal was very pleased and she welcomed swamy happily. Sri nAchiyar, wanted to
show to the world her regards towards Sri Periya bhattarpiran swamy who
submitted a beautiful chariot to nachiyar, as a father and hence nachiyar
entered the minds of all Acharya purushas and temple administrators and made
swamy get the first respect in the ghosti with swamy receiving the prathama
theertham, parivattam, mAlai and all other honours and also made it a custom
forever. All the acharya purushas and temple administrators accepted the same
and put their signatures in a written document and submitted in front of
nachiyar. Nachiyar very happily submitted the same to swamy through the
archaka. A copy of the same was placed in the temple as per the orders of Sri
gOdhA nAchiyar. Andal was bhattarpiran kOdhai and swamy was the jnana
sandhadhi of bhattarpiran swamy, who understood the mental state of nachiyar
and submitted nooru tadA akkAravadisil to azhagar, along with other kainkaryams
(grand pradhistA dhadheeyArAdhanam of andal and submission of pattu
peedhAmbharam) andal had a special feeling towards swamy, which is nothing
surprising. Though deeply involved in the divine darshan of nachiyar and
enjoying her immense grace swamy couldn't stop there for long thinking of the
order of varamangai nAchiyar. So swamy after getting the permission of andal
started from srivilliputtur blessing many ignorant souls on the way and reached
Sri Varamangala nagar.
There swamy bathed in the divine sERRuthAmarai and finished his nithya
karmAnushtAnams while the SriVaishnavas who have missed swamy's darshan for
five years spending a day as many many years with great enthusiasm and
inexpressible feelings held poornakumbum amidst the sound of Vedas rushed to
welcome swamy. Swamy was highly pleased with the warm welcome while his mind
circled around the darshan of varamangai nAchiyar after such a long time.
Nachiyar, also waiting to see swamy send her thirumAlai, abhayahastam and other
honours to her dear father amidst the sound of divine instruments. Swamy held
the prasadams over his head and with great pleasure started towards the mutt
along with his disciples. From there swamy along with the pattu peedhAmbharam
and other articles swamy had got for Varamangai and her consort during his
journey went to do mangalasasanams to Varamangai sametha deivanAyakan. Swamy
adorned emperuman with all the jewels and enjoyed the darshan meanwhile
deivanAyakan honoured swamy with all due respects. Accepting the same swamy
returned to the mutt did mangalAsAsanams to aranganagarappan and stayed in his
peedam blessing the disciples with Sri pAda theertham and a grand
dhadheeyArAdhanam.
During the bhoopradhakshinam the kings of riva, indoor and hatva were
mesmerized by swamy's jnana vairAkyam and they became swamy's dear disciples
"guna: dAsya mupAgatha:" Furthur in patna, kAnpur and hyderabad swamy did
patnapravEsam (coming round the city) and uplifted many many ignorant souls.
These kainkaryams of swamy has to be written in golden words in the history of
Vanamamalai mutt.
