Dear Sri Rajagopal: The Matchless Lord of Oppiliappan Sannidhi is "TannoppAr illa Appan" according to Swamy NammAzhwAr . He is saluted formally as DakshiNa VenkatachAlapathy . The name Oppiliaappan/Uppiliappan came from Sthala PurANam : LavaNa Varjitha VenkatEsan ( Uppu illa appan ) , the one who discarded salt in His NaivEdhyams to ease the fear of Sage MarkaNDEya about the lack of skills of his oyung daughter to salt the food properly .
