HH Sri Vanamamalai Periya Pattarbiran jeeyer 1843-1853 (nineteenth pattam)

 

Swamy?s kainkaryams (Contd.)

 

In chola desam, swamy first did mangalasasanams to kaliyan in thirunagari and 
then proceeded to the various divya desams that have obtained the 
divinemangalasasanams of thirumangai azhvar. Swamy finally reached nandhi pura 
vinnagaram, had the divine darshan of nAdhan and stayed there for some days. 
Then swamy visited senbhagAranyam and did mangalasasanams to raja mannar. The 
adiyars over there honoured swamy with due respect and swamy graced them all. 
After getting the honours from mannar, swamy left from there to pullani. There 
he had the darshan of Adi jagannatha and Sri rama on the darpa sayanam and then 
he proceeded to thirunagari. There he bathed in the sacrad thAmrabharani and 
did his daily rituals. Then swamy did mangalasasanams to azhvar and polindhu 
nindra pirAn. Then swamy proceeded to Vanamamalai via ramanujapudur while 
varamangai nAchiyar and deivanAyaka perumal likeparents who are happy with the 
arrival of their son who has been outside for long welcomed swamy
by sending their vanamAlai, kalaindha peedhagavAdai, abhaya hastham and 
prasadam through bhagavatas in their service.

 

The bhagavatas as per the order of the divine couples got the prasadams of 
perumal and piratti on a golden plate with great honours in a procession, 
amidst the sound of divine instruments and proceeded to honour swamy. 
Swamyrealizing this to be the grace of deivanayaka perumal, prostrated the 
procession and stood with folded hands honouring perumal?s prasadam and the 
adiyars in an orderly fashion, submitted the thirumalai, thiruparivattam 
andabhaya hastham to swamy. After accepting the same with great pleasure swamy 
boarded a beautiful ivory palanquin and came around the divine streets and 
proceeded towards the mutt. After prostrating aranganagarappan, swamy proceeded 
to the mandapam, called azhagiya varadan where the divine padhukas of the 
Acharyas where placed prostrated the acharyas and then seated himself on a 
koormAsanam placed over there. Then swamy did surul sAththupadi viniyOgam (this 
is done as a sign of completion of an yathra by the yethi) to the srivaishnavas
gathered over there.

 

Then his shisyas came along with the jewels and other valuable things submitted 
by various people during his yathra placed in golden plates. Swamy along with 
the same proceeded to deivanAyakan sannadhi for mangalAsAsanam. There swamy 
submitted all that was collected to the divine feet of perumal and piratti and 
had the divine darshan of the divine couples and did heartfilled 
mangalasasanams to them and stayed there in the divine state when perumal 
blessed him with arulapAdu followed by theertham, thirupparivattam, thirumalai, 
srisatakOpan abhayahastham and prasadam. Highly pleased swamy returned back to 
the mutt and as before stayed in the nithya kainkaryam of aranganagarppan and 
did dhadheeyArAdhanam and kalashepams.
