Srimathe ramanujaya namaha;
Sri NilamAmangai sametha ulaguiya nindra perumal thunai:

Dear Srivaishnavas,

http://www.pbase.com/svami/thirukkadalmallai

Thirukkadal mallai is a divyadesam which is just 50 Kms from Chennai city.
This is famously called as Mahabalipuram or Mamallapuram.
Moolavar - Sri Stalasayanapperumal
Utsavar - Ulaguiya nindra perumal
Thayar - NilamAmangai thayar.

This divyadesam boasts mangalasasanams of two great azhwars who were one in
the first list (mudal Azhwars) and the other in the last.  Yes it is
Bhoodath azhwar and Thirumangai azhwar.  Adding to the flavour,  this
divyadesam happens to be the the avatara stalam of Bhoodathazhwar.

Though this divyadesam has lots of such greatness under its belt, Alas!
there were only two adyapakas in the arulicheyal goshti.  Today adiyen
happens to be the third member in the arulicheyal goshti.  Adiyen genuinly
requests all the Srivaishnavas to pay a vist to this divyadesam and worship
this great lord,   Who has  come here to protect this whole world (Ulaguiya
nindra perumal).

Adiyen has captured pictures of some important events and places during this
ongoing Brahmotsavam on the 3rd day including the avatara stalam of
Bhoodathazhwar which is currently under the archealogical department of
India.

Uniqueness of the side-posture picture of perumal is, where you can see 
Bhoodathazwhar in the "Gadhai".

(The place is also famous for its Adivaraha shrine near the seashore, where 
the Lord is known as "Valavendai Gnanapiran" or the Lord having His Consort 
on His right side unlike other places with His Consort on the left side like 
the nearby Thiruvidaventhai divyadesam, which is just within 7 km from 
thirukkadalmallai, whose gopuram picture can be seen at:

Hope you all will enjoy and definetly pay a visit.

Adiyen Ramanuja dasan,
Varadarajan
