Sri Andal Rangamannar Azhwar Emperumanar Desikar Thiruvadikale Saranam

A Day In The Life Of OUR Acharyas- 11
The following episode was told br Sri Velukkudi Krishnan swamy in his Upanyasam.
Bhattar was responsible for administration of Sri Ranganathan Asthanam. Unless 
he arrives to the temple and gives instruction, no festival will start.He will 
arrive the temple in planquin sent by the temple.
One day Namperumal ' Purappadu ' was there but planquin for Bhattar did 
notcome. On enquiry he came to know that Purappadu is delayed as 
Punyakavachanam of the Sanctum is being done because one dog has entered in the 
temple.
On hearing this, Bhattar ran to Sanctum and cried " Ranganatha, i am worse than 
this dog and i am visiting your sanctum every day; then every day after my 
leaving Punyakavachanam has to be performed ". Azhakiyamanavalan smiled( sozhi 
vai thirandu siriththan ). 

This shows the modesty of our Acharyas.
