Sri:
SrimathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya nama:

Dearest all,

AzhwAr who had enjoyed Trivikraman in His
vAmAnAvathAram and is the divya desam ThirukkOviloor,
has mentioned in this verse (7th) that the same
Trivikraman is the Kovalan, who took avathArams as
Rama, Krishna, Balaramam et al. Even in Periya
Thirumzohi, when he enlists the ten avathArams, he
mentions Hamsa avatharam in lieu of Balarama
avatharam. In the last verse, he mentions alam,
(halam), it may refer to the axe that was held by
Balarama avatharam.

When the mountains were flying and destroying the
lands and people, Devendra cut their wings. Some
mountains entered into the oceans and hid themselves.
The Deva sena pathi- the arm commander of Devas-
Subramanian, sent his sharp spear towards the ocean to
help Devednra and attack those mountains. He is so
strong. He supported along with his father, brother
and mother to bANAsuran when bAnan fought against
Krishna (as his daughter Usha was in love with
Krishna?s grand son Aniruddhan). Krishna chased them
all away and conquered them; later as per request of
Rudra, (on behalf of his devotee bANasura), spared his
(bANAsura?s) life and cut only his 1000 shoulders. 

This Lord appeared as Parasurama, and then as
Chakravartthi Thirumagan Kothanda Rama, and then to
understand His SarvEshwarathvam and His graceful
presence at Thirukkoviloor as Trivikraman, Durga devi
is there to protect the place; she serves Him by doing
that role as her kainkarya. It is also to seek
forgiveness (as prayaschittham) for their apacharam in
bANAsura battle by the whole family of hers). (Periya
Thiruzhi 2-10-6 also refers to the same). Krishna is
the one who asked Durga to be born as Maayai and be
born in Nandhan?s place and be swapped with Himself to
Devaki?s place for letting kamsan know of His arrival.
Hence Durga has intense and great devotion for Kovalan
(KaNNan).
