EXCERPTS:

" The Dhivya dEsam of ThiruvahIndhrapuram/ThiruvEndipuram/
Thiru Ayindhai is located near Cuddalore in South Arcot
district of Tamilnadu , India. The presiding deity is
Lord DevanAthan who is also known as Adiyavarkku Meyyan,
Achyuthan , MoovarAgiya Oruvan . His Divine Consort is revered
as BhArgavi, Tarangamukha Nandini and Vaikunthavalli.

The divya dEsam has been sanctified by the sacred poems of
Thirumangai Azhwaar , who sang ten glorious hymns about
the Lord of Thiru Ayindhai and the beauty of His dhivya
dEsam. 

Right across Lord DevanAthA's temple , on a small hillock ,
is a shrine dedicated to Lord Hayagreeva , the Repository
and granter of all knowledge .

Thiruvendipuram is famous for another reason. It was here
that a pillar of Shri VisishtAdvaitha, Swamy VedAntha Desikan 
spent more than four decades in the service of Lord DevanAthan 
and lORD HayagrIvan , beoming in the proess a KavitArkika 
Simham--lion among poets and logicians. The house where He
lived and the well He constructed with His own hands some 
700 years ago are still here .Here, Swamy Desikan composed
many important SrI Sookthis in adoration of the matchless
beauty and infinite kalyANa guNams of Lord DevanAthan . 

Another great Shri VaishNava AchArya, Shri MaNavALa Maamuni, 
has also performed MangaLAsAsanam of Lord DevanAthan.

For all Shri VaishNavAs and their AchAryAs , ThiruvahIndhrapuram 
ranks very high in the list of dhivya dEsams to worship SrIman 
NaarAyaNa in the Archa form. If worship at ThiruvEnkatam confers 
prosperity ,worship at Thiru EvvuL AarOgyam , worship of Daasa Sathyan 
(The Lord who never fails His devotees) at Thiru Ayindhai grants 
one Moksha Sukham . 

A few devotees spread across the globe--U.S.A, India , Singapore,
Indonesia, Australia , Kuwait , Reunion , Mauritius and 
New Zeeland--following SrI Bhagavath RaamAnuja SiddhAntham 
have taken it upon themselves to perform a once-in-a-lifetime 
kaimakryam of presenting to Uthsavar DevanAthan a RathnAngi 
( Coat of armour encrusted with Rubies and other gems).
These devotees have raised sofar one third of the required
funds as seed capital . It is hoped that the rest of 
the needed funds will be raised before too long to complete 
the construction of the RathnAngi and present it to Uthsavar
Lord DevanAthan before the end of this year. The Crown ,
Ear lobes , Sankha and Chakra have already been made
and is bein worn periodically by Lord DevanAthan.
Our task is to complete the RathnAngi from neck down to
the hip , the two legs upto the shanks , the four arms
and especailly Abhayahastham. Individual BhakthAs 
and their families are welcome to identify with 
the samarpaNam of any one of the (above)individual limbs
of the Divine Body of Lord DevanAthan.

This is an ivitation to all Shri VaishNavAs to join in this
unique Kaimakryam to Lord DevanAthan adored by AchAryAs ,
AzhwArs and celestials/DevAs, Nithya Sooris like
AdhisEshan and Garudan from time immemorial.
