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: http://www.pbase.com/svami/thiruvidanthai) Hope you all will enjoy and definetly pay a visit.
