Sri Vara Vara MunayE Namaha

thathAyathatAthma sadhdhAthim rAmAnuja munim bhajE

After coming out of the emperumAnAr sanndhi, azhagiya manavAla perumAl nAyanar 
along with azhigiya varadar and his other shisyas prostrated Thirukachchi 
nambigal ("DevarAja dayA pathram Sri kAnchi poorna muththamamI RAmAnuja munEr 
mAnyam vandhEham sanjanAsrayamII). They then proceeded towards the entrance of 
the temple, paying their due respects to periya thiruvadi, entered the gopura 
vAsal, had the darshan of "Ayar thalaivan" and "Sudarshana Alwar". As they 
proceeded inside, they had darshan of the golden dwajasthambham. Inside they 
passed through thiruvEngadamudaiyan sannadhi, chakravarthi thirumagan sannadhi 
and navaneedha Krishnan sannadhi.

Finally they entered the sannadhi of ?Polindhu nindra pirAn?("thirithanthAgilum 
dEva pirAnnudai kariya kOla thiruvuru kAnban nAn") reciting the verses from 
thiruvAimozhi which are the mangalAsAsanam done by nammAzhvar to this perumal 
starting with "onnum dEvum?." Then they did mangalAsAsanam to jnana 
piran("mangalAni prayunjAnA mandham mandham viniryuyu:") and then to kuruga 
dEvi, the holy mother filled with ?kshama?(forgiveness) and krupai(mercy). She 
is the same piratti who showed her mercy even to the rakshasis who did cruelty 
to her in ashOkavanam saying, "na kaschit nAparAthyathi"(Apjath kurukAdEveem 
kurukAnAdha vallabhAm I PoornAkassu ksama jushtAm svapriyAya priyamvadhAm").

>From there they prostrated the dasAvatArAs and then proceeded towards the 
>AdhinAyaki sannadhi and then towards thirupuliAzhvAr. Then after having the 
>divine darshan of our sampradayam?s important acharya, Sri nathamunigal, who 
>got back the divya prabandhams from nammAzhvar by reciting the 
>kanninunsiruthambhu 12000 times, they then proceeded towards the golden 
>dwajastambham of Azhvar.

Like a rising sun, amidst four beautiful golden pillars, on a golden simhAsanam 
studded with precious stones which are very pleasant to the viewer?seyes, they 
had the darshan of one who has been praised by poigai muni and others and whom, 
Sri madurakavigal surrendered as his soul master and delivered the divine 
kanninun siruthambhu. They were also amongst a great crowd of 
ubhyavEdanthAcharyas, pandits, sastra vithpannAs and those who have shedall 
their bad qualities (selfishness, anger, greed etc) and those who havea great 
regard for azhvar and who are mumukshus(interested in moksha). Azhvar, prapana 
jana kootasthan, sarvaprapyam to all over there, in turn was showering his 
divine grace with his eyes filled with krupai, like a lotus which has just 
bloomed, but with a gambeeryam like a lion, himself being likea princess in the 
kingdom of emperumAn, Srivaikundam, wearing a sweet smelling garland ("nAt 
kamazh magizh mAlai mArbinan").
