Varadha PrasAdham – III
Dear BhAgavathAs,
Sri NampiLLai’s thiruavathAra uTsavams is going to be celebrated on 4th-Dec the same day of Thirumangai Azhwar’s thiruavathAra day. Vadakkuth-th-thiruveedhi piLLai is one of great sishyA of Sri NampiLLai.
When Vadakkuth-th-thiruveedhi piLLai was doing nithya kainkaryam to the lotus feet of his achAryar Sri NampiLLai, his mother named Ammi complained to Sri NampiLLai that, her son is not interested in gruhasta life and appealed Sri NampiLLai to advice him, so that his gn~Anam would be transferred to his descendents. Sri NampiLLai ordered Ammi to bring Vadakkuth-th-thiruveedhi piLLai and blessed him to enter into gruhasta life. Through achArya’s bless, Vadakkuth-th-thiruveedhi piLLai presented a santhAnam to Sri Vaishnava sampradhAyam named Sri PiLLai lOkAchAryar.
Sri piLLai lOkAchAryar was born to Vadakkuth-th-thiruveedhi piLLai through the bless from NambUr VaradhAchAryar alais Sri NampiLLai. This is AchAryar Varadha PrasAdham. Another Varadha PrasAdham is by Lord PerarulAlan himself. We know, PiLLai lOkAchAryar is amsam of Kanchi PerarulAlan. Hence PiLLai lOkAchAryar is said to be “Varadha Dwaya PrasAdham”
One Varadhar – NambUr VardhAchAryar (Carama parva AchAryan)
Another Varadhar – Kaanchi VaradharAja perumAl (Pradhama parva AchAryan)
So, Lord DevaperumAl at thiru-k-kachchi is said to be PerarulAlan as HE is famous for HIS boons showered to our SampradhAyam and to HIS adiyArs - “arTithArTa paridhAna dhIkshithan”
“dhEvAdhi dhEvanai chenRU nAm sEvithAl
AvAvendru ArAinthu arul”
