Dear All,
Pranams!

Thirumangai Azhwar enjoys singing on various Divya Desams in Orunal suttram
pathigam in periya thirumozhi. In the above pasuram, Kaliyan performs
mangalasasanam to two DDs. One is ThiruppErnagar. The other one is
Thiruvellarai. These two Divyadesams are very special. The anubhavam of both
theses DDs is the subject of this series.
Both the DDs are older than Srirangam. There is a specialty in linking these
DDs with Srirangam.
Thiruvellarai DD is very special for thayar (Sri). It is located north of
Srirangam, and appropriately takes the first part of the name Srirangam for
speciality, ?Sri?. ThiruppErnagar is very special because it is located south
of Srirangam, and appropriately takes the second part of the name Srirangam,
?rangan?. It is also known as kOviladi. Perumal here is known as AppAla rangam,
one among the 5 rangams. He is also known as AppakudathAn. Azhwars have given
him special name, which is AarAvayitrAn.
Going one step further, from divya desam to Azhwars? Divya sUkthis?
Thiruvellarai DD figures first in Periazhwar Thirumozhi, which is the first
work in Divya prabandha kramam. ThiruppErnagar figures last in the
Thiruvaymozhi. Nammazhwar performs mangalasasanam to AarAvayitrAn before
proceeding to paramapadham.
