Jeeyer and his pAdharEka VanamAmalai Jeeyer reached Thirunagari, bathed in the
sangani thurai, did the appropriate anushtAnams and then proceeded to do
mangalAsAsanams to emperumAnAr starting with “SrimAdhavAngri”.
Then doing mangalAsAsanams to various sannadhi’s in order they went to
the alwar sannadhi. Starting with “mAthA pithA” and ending with “pranamAmi
moordhnA”, they did mangalAsAsanam to alwar and then proceeded to the mutt and
stayed there for a few days. Then with a deep wish to do mangalAsAsanam to vanamamalai perumal both of them proceeded towards vanamamalai, bathed in the settruthAmarai (temple tank), finished appropriate anushtanams, then went to deivanAyakan sannadhi and did mangalAsAsanam reciting, “nOttra nOnbillEn” and “kadhA punas sanga…..” (Aalavandaar’s strotra ratnam) and then prostrated under the divine feet of vAnamAmalai perumal, deivanAyagan. They had the divine darshan of the beautiful lotus-like sweet eyes which pierces into one’s mind, the coral-like lips, strong shoulders, divine feet with a beautiful noopuram, the divine crown and all other divya Abharanams (Jewels) and the divine beauty throughout from top to bottom. Their mouth then uttered alwar’s enchanting paasuram, “Ar enakku nin pAdhamE sharanAga than thozhindhAi, vunakkOr kaimmAru nAn ondrilEn enadhAviyum vunadhE, serukol karumbum perunsennellum malindhan sreevara mangai, nAru poonthandhuzhAi mudiyAi deivanAyaganE”. Periya Jeeyer uttered these lines and his eyes filled with tears and loosing himself he stood in front of perumal. Perumal
pleased with the deep involvement of periya Jeeyer told him with happiness,
“You have given me one beloved person just like you for my kainkaryam.
I have attained the benefit for bringing him up” and then blessed him
with thirumAlai, thiruparivattam, srisadagopan, prasadam and other honors and
also showered his fullest grace on him. Then
Periya Jeeyer took the permission of perumal, came out along with his shisya and
proceeded to the mutt. Periya
Jeeyer consecrated the aranganagarappan gifted to vanamamalai Jeeyer by Periya
perumal in the mutt with his own hands and ordered vanamamalai Jeeyer to do
thiruvArAdhanam daily and blessed him to remain with glory, with number of
shisyas and thereby work for the flourishment of sath sampradayam (ramanuja
darshanam). After staying in
vanamamalai for a few more days they went to thirukkurungudi did mangalAsAsanam
to nambi and then returned
back to vanamamalai. There they
stayed for 3 more days in the service of deivanAyakan and then once again
started to alwar thirunagari and enjoyed the divine service of alwar for six
months considering days to run like seconds. Then
Periya Jeeyer told vanamamalai Jeeyer, “You follow my orders and stay in
vanamamalai and do all types of kainkaryam to deivanAyaka perumal and live
happily”. Shocked to hear this,
but not being able to refute his acharyas words but very very sad to think of
separating from his acharya, vanamamalai Jeeyer was soaked in sorrow.
