There Brahma Devan performed Thirumanjanam for the Lord's sacred feet and the waters that flowed from that abhishEkam was held by MahA Meru Parvatham serving as a storage vessel. Unsurpassable is the glory of this Lord !

My beautiful daughter like the lady having Her home in the Lotus flower (MahA Lakshmi ) can not bear to be seperated from her Lord . Her bow--shaped brows and golden-hued body can send anyone who sees her into raptures . My daughter known for this exquisite beauty is suffering now from her inability to have the desired union with her Lord . The Tenth Pasuram: ********************** The Natha Sathya PerumAL fears now that His further delay in appearing before the longing Venkata Naayaki will cause damage to His Sarva- rakshathvam and ultimately would lead to the loss of Venkata Naayaki herself . He was afraid that others may chastise Him for His indifference . Hence , He appeared before Venkata Naayaki so that she can enjoy Him to the fullest . Venkata Naayaki was now overwhelmed with that aanandha anubhavam and broke out into an exquisite paasuram eulogizing her Lord : peRRanai NeeyE maRRuLavellAm peRuvathu Ninnai uRuvathu koLvAr NinnAl anRi mannAr inbham Nee Ninporuttu Nee yenn poruttu illai Ninn uru ninRum minnuru thOnRum Ninn Tanakku nihar Ninnadi adaivAr Ninn PaalanRi anbAl uyyAr VaaraNam azhaikka vantha KaaraNanE (Meaning ) : Oh Lord who rushed to this earth , when Gajendran screamed " AadhimUlamE "to invite Your attention for rescuing him from the jaws of the powerful crocodile !

There is no one besides You , who blesses the saraNAgathan with Moksha Siddhi . No other divinity has the power to grant that parama purushArTam .The fruits of all karmAs are enjoyed by You even if the karmas were directed at some other god (Sarva dEva namaskAram Kesavam prathigacchathi) . All the objects in this universe were born out of Your body . Those who prostrate before You and perform AarAdhanam for You become almost equal to You. There is no room for any one to thrive unless they hapepn to be Your devotees .
