thathAyath thAthma sadhdhAthim rAmAnuja munim bhajE Meanwhile,
the king of kerala heard about the greatness of Vanamamalai Jeeyer swamigal and
wanted to have darshan of this great mahan.
He came to vanamamalai, bathed in the sacred tank ‘settru
thAmarai’(which has been praised as, “rAjabhAvA vahEchuna:”,”bhukthi
mukthi pradhE” etc), finished his anushtanams and with clear mind and body
proceeded towards devanAthan sannadhi. He
submitted to emperuman all the valuable stone studded jewels and grand vastrams
he has got. He ordered to make
special prasadams(thaligai- akkAravadisil and many others) and with great love
submitted to the emperuman. Later
he proceeded to have darshan of the jeeyar with great enthusiasm.
As he entered the doorsteps of the mutt, he was awestricken by the divine
glory of the jeeyar filled with atmost jnanam, wearing dvadasa pundram all over
his body, beautified by the yagnOpaveetham, thulasi mAla, nalinAksha mAla and
various thirupavithra malas. The
thirumugam(divine face) of the jeeyer was like a lotus flower and his eyes like
the petals of the flower. With a
beautiful shikai adding to the beauty of his back the jeeyer was seated on a
koormAsanam. With all grace, the jeeyer was delivering bhagavat vishayam
to all the srivaishnavas in front of him. The
king out of great respect fell down on the same place and did danda pranAmams to
the great mahan. The king went to
the state of ecstasy, considering his bhakyam to have obtained this opportunity
to have the darshan of such a great acharya in his lifetime.
To show his joy he submitted some wealth and a few villages to the mutt,
to be used for nithya dhadhiyArAdhanam. The
king then requested Jeeyer swamy to present him with sreepAda theertham and
prasAda sEsham, to purify his soul. Since
the king didn’t have any sambandham(relation) with the mutt, Jeeyer hesitated
but on the request of all the srivaishnavas collected over there to shower his
grace on the king, jeeyer blessed the king with the same.
Accepting with atmost pleasure, the king submitted all the
responsibilities of the deivanAyaka perumal temple administration, along with
the villages and all the properties of the temple under the incharge of
vanamamalai jeeyer and returned back to his own place with mental peace. SOME KAINKARYAMS OF THE JEEYER SWAMIGAL:
Along
with all these kainkaryams, Jeeyer also took care of the vanamamalai temple
administration just like udaiyavar’s administration of the periya koil.
He also took care of the nithya dhadhiyArAdhanam at the vanamamalai mutt.
Though very busy with all these kainkaryams his mind was always in the
thought of his acharya and he very badly wanted to go and do nithya kainkaryam
to nayanAr. Deciding to go for the
same to thirunagari, he appointed one srivaishnava to be incharge of
dhadhiyArAdhanam in the mutt and srikAryams in the temple.
