Dear Lakshmi Swamin: adiyEn yesterday referred the ThiruvallOr Mahatmiyam released by the devasthAnams (controlled by HHAzhagiya Singar). In that, the editor in his preface, had quoted about the reason for the Perumal's name as "Sri Veera Raghavan". As given in that text, "Actually the perumal was referred by Alwars as 'Evvul KindanthAn'. The name "Sri Veera Raaghavan" may be given to perumal perhaps due to the pAsuram by thiru mangai Alwar: "Kaasaiyaadai moodiyOdi....." (Periya Thirumozhi 2.2.1) "thaiyalAl mEl kaathal....." (Periya Thirumozhi 2.2.2) In the first pasuram first two lines and the entire second pasuram describes about the Lord Rama. >From the kshetra mahAtmiyam adiyEn couldn't find any other references regarding the perumal's name except the above one. adiyEn, senthil.b *Comments welcome. --- Lakshmi Narasimhan <nrusimhann@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Dear bhAgavathOtthamAs, > I have a small question that has been lingering in > my mind for quite > some time.
