SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

No doubt one can meditate and enjoy any of His
avathArams and develop bhakti towards His lotus feet.
He is merciful to bless the devotion in us. However,
the Kutti KaNNan- with adharAhitha chaaruvamsa nALA;
the flute in His red lotus mouth- curvy bimbha fruit
like lips; the divine blue hued dhivya mangaLa
thirumEni; the Kutti KaNNan?s pastimes; His stealing
butter, stealing the hearts of Gopikas, playing fun
with Chathur mukha BrahmA, Devendran, and later
conquering them effortlessly, making them realize
their false prestige; Battling with Rudran and his
family in bANAsura vadham; the way He effortlessly
sucked the life of Poothanai; kicked the sakatAsura;
swirled and hit the vathsAsura against the viLampazha
tree to kill both in one stroke; - KaNNan KaNNalladhu
illayOr kaNNE.

AzhwAr enjoys this avathArams and advises us- easy to
meditate on the lotus feet of Kutti KaNNan.. 

vaasiyaaki nEsaminRi
  vanthethirntha thEnukan,
naasamaaki naaLulappa
  nanmaisEr_pa Nnankanikku,
veesamEln^i mirnthathOLi
  lillaiyaakki Nnaay,kazhaRku
aasaiyaama varkkalaala
  mararaaka laakumE?      (80)

The asurA who had come in the guise of calf- dhEnukan
[with an intent to kill KaNNan] was simply and
effortlessly killed by Kutti KaNNan by lifting the
same and swirling by holding its tail raising His
shoulders high? during the time itself he would have
been half dead or even full- and hitting against the
viLAmpazha tree (which was another asurA). Such
valoruous KaNNan- but for the devotees who have
intense devotion for His divine Lotus feet [that made
the calf void] can anyone else get the deathless
mukthA status? Never. 

The asurA was living in the forest as tree with his
family (also perhaps as trees)- vaasi.. living
therein? 

The feet that killed nor nullified the calf- How did
the feet kill the asurA? While lifting and holding its
tail, swirling KaNNan used his feet skilfully to
balance himself and did the grand deed as Kutti
KaNNan. 

kanRu kuNilaa yeRindhaay kazahl pORRi? - says AnDAL

kaNru kiNilaa eRindhaay kazhal pORRi. ? When
vasthAsura appeared as calf and came near You with an
attempt to kill you, You noticed that asurA by its
different eyes (thiruttu muzhi and not loving
affectionate eyes like other calves) and took the calf
by its tail and swirled the calf hitting against the
another asurA (who came in as viLAm pazha tree) so
that your friends could eat the fruits and enjoy as
well.. your marvelous deeds can not be described in
words at all. May Your such grandest deeds and Your
lotus feet remain for millions of years after years
with us.

also KulasekarAzhwAr says: [in PerumAL Thirumozhi- in
the role of Devaki:- 9th verse]

Holding Govardhana hill as an umbrella; your playing
Rasakrida with the Gopis; your playing(!) with a calf
(Vatsasura in the form of a calf); throwing a bela
fruit (Kapithasura in the form of a bela fruit) both
of them were killed; trodding on the hoods of kalinga;
thinking of your victorious childhood deeds as above
makes my mind elated. I have not been fortunate to see
any of your deeds. Please bless me in case there are
any opportunities to see your deeds in future.
