SrI:
SrImathE Gopaladesika mahadesikaya namah:

Dearest Srivaishnavas,

There are very many vibhava avathArams and one can
meditate on any avathAram of Sriya: Pathi Sriman
Narayanan. However, if one wonders that there are no
such vibhava avathArams now and where shall we go..,
AzhwAr says: There are Dhivya Desams like
TiruvEmkatam- that archA mUrthy alone is the refuge...

kadainthapaaRka dalkidanthu
kaalan^Emi yaikkadinthu,
udainthavaali thanpinukku
thavavanthi raamanaay,
midainthavEzhma rankaLuma
dankaveythu,vEnkadam
adainthamaala paathamE
yadainthun^aaLu muymminO (81)

Reclining on the Milky ocean that was once churned;
having killed kAla nEmi asurA; having 
sent one arrow through seven trees effortlessly
[during rAmAvathAram] with an intent to prove his
valour to Sugreevan- Vaali's brother- at Rishyamukha
moutain where Sugreevan was living to help him; - Such
Greatest Lord is now at ThirumEnkatam- Be devoted to
His Lotus feet alone; and be saved all days...

The Lord who was reclining peacefully on the Milky
ocean on AdhisEshan bed, heeding to the
prayers of Devas, got out of His place, bed, and even
helped them in all sorts to churn the
ocean to get nectar (amudham) for them. He had never
even thought "this is where I am reclining; why should
I get out? When churned, it would spoil the milk;
there will be bad smell 
arising out even; Will that be later Milky ocean? " He
never though of all of these and
immediately came forward to be Parama upakArakan- as
He usually is. That is why He is THE LORD. 

Valli's brother was living in fear (from Vaali) at
Rishyamukha parvatham and Rama and Lakshamana went
there while searching for Sita PiraaTTi. When
Sugreevan was suspicious of Rama'a valour Rama,
effortlessly sent one arrow through seven trees to
prove His skill. 

Some comment that seven refers to seven oceans, seven
kula parvadhams (moutains) and seven pAthALa lOkam
also. Sri KooratthAzhwAn had mentioned: saalaamsCha
saptha sagirIna sarasAthaLAn ya: Even here, seven
mountains and seven pAthALA are not referred to and
hence it may not be appropriate to refer to. 
 
Be devoted to the divine lotus feet of the Lord
Thiruvenkatamudaiyaan and All days- be saved.
OR it may also mean: AT least one day go there and
surrender to His Lotus feet and be saved... 

Thirumazhisai Piraan ThiruvaDgaLE SaraNam
