        SHRIMAN NARAYANAYA NAMAHA!
 
In these days of conflicts, confrontations and competitions, one needs to be powerful enough to combat his opponents and steer himself to success. But how to get that power to administer? Luckily Pallikonda Perumal  can grant such boons for His sevarthis. Pallikonda Perumal Kovil , otherwise known as Thiru Thetri Ambalam is a Divyadesam in Thirunangur which is about 8 kilometers from Seerkazi , in Nagapattinam District of Tamilnadu.
 
Hiranyasura, an asura concealed the Bhoomi in the Badala Lokam. Devas and Rishis appealed to Shriman Narayana to recover Bhoomi and keep it in its original trojectory. Conceeding their request Shriman Narayana took the form of Varaha Avathar. Mahalakshmi, who was disappointed by this appealed to Shriman Narayana that She always wanted to be in His chest and that She would be deprived of Her privillage if MahaVishnu were to take Varaha Avathar. Adisehsa also wondered in confusion about his fate.
Shriman Narayana consoled them and said that all would be in the interest of the earth and that only good things and deeds would prevail. He advised them to go to Palasa vanam where Siva also would join them and meditate for Him. He assured them He would come to Palasa vanam after killing Hiranyasa to grant them Anugraham. He also assured Them, that His ardent Bhaktha, Bashyakara along with 108 learned Vaishnavas would perform Aradhana and that He would safeguard the Earth from there throughout Kaliyuga. He took the Varaha Avathar, went to Badala Lokam and destrioyed the demon Hiranyasura and positioned the
 Earth in its appropriate location in the orbit.
 
Learning this, Mahalakshmi and Adiseshan went to Palasa vanam and did Thapasya. Shriman Narayana, as promised went to Palasa vanam and graced His presence to Siva, Maha Lakshmi and Adisesha. The Palasa vanam is non other than Thiru Thetri Ambalam. Then, He relaxed Himself
with His beautiful red eyes.  And that is why He is known as Sengan Mal Ranganathar in Thiruthetri Ambalam.
 
It is believed that by worshipping in this Divyadesam, one can get Power for administration  and governance. Worship here is equivalent to  worship in Srirangam.
 
In this east facing holy place, Perumal graces with four arms, relaxing over Adiseshan, keeping His head and right hand over a wooden piece
and lowering His left hand downwards. Shri devi is seated near His head and Boodevi is seated at His feet.
 
In the Sannadhi, Lakshmi Narayanar, ShriDevi, Bhooma Devi, Chakkarathazwar, Santhana Krishnar are gracing with their presence.
 
Sengamalathayar has a separate Sannadhi. In the maha mandapam, in the southern side all the 12 Azvars, Hanuman and Chakkarathazvar are present.
 
Of the 108 Divyadesams only this place is known as an Ambalam and locally known as Pallikonda Perumal Kovil.
