00:00He composed his last prabandham called Thirunadunthandakam and presented it in front of Sri Ranganathan.
00:09Sri Ranganathan asked him for any wishes he had.
00:13At that time, Thirumangayalvar said, this Perumal, that is Sri Ranganathan, has to hear
00:18Swami Nammalvar's Thiruvayimuzhi for ten days in this Adhyayana Utsava Kaalam.
00:24Thirumangayalvar presented this beautiful wish and Sri Ranganathan approved it.
00:29Swami Nammalvar, who was born in Alwar Trinagari, which is in Thoothukudi district, was brought
00:35from Thoothukudi to Srirangam every year before Swami Ramanujacharya's period and this Utsavam
00:42was happening with Nammalvar from Alwar Trinagari or Thoothukudi.
00:47After that, after Swami Ramanujacharya's period, this issue got dissolved and a new Nammalvar
00:55was placed in Srirangam itself.
00:58This event, which was started by Thirumangayalvar, was later dropped due to periods.
01:05At that time, Swami Nathamunikal, who is the great Acharya and a Sishya of Swami Nammalvar,
01:11who came much later, restarted this Utsavam with Pagalpathu as well.
01:16In Pagalpathu, along with Thiruvayimuzhi, Swami Sri Ranganatha hears other Rivya Prabandhams
01:24as well.
01:25Thirupallandu, Periyalvar Thirumuzhi, Thirupavai, Nachiyar Thirumuzhi, Perumal Thirumuzhi, Thiruchandavirutham,
01:31Thirumalai, Thirupalliyazhichi, Kanninunsiruthambu and Amalanathipiran, alongside Thirumangayalvar's
01:38Periyathirumuzhi.
01:39After these 20 days are over, Iyerppa, the rest of the Divya Prabandhams by Alwars are
01:44sung in that one day.
01:47The 11th day of this festival, called Vaikunta Ekadashi, is the most important day.
01:52On that day, Sri Ranganathan, coming out of his Garbhagraha, enacts as a simple Jivatma,
01:59who is a Muktatma, coming out and reaching Sri Vaikuntam.
02:03He crosses Vrajanathi, he enters the Paramapada Vasal and enters Thirumamani Mandapam, like
02:08a Samanya Jivatma.
02:10That is what the context of Sri Paramapada Vasal.
02:14And from then on, Thiruvayimuzhi is sung by Arayars in front of Sri Ranganathan and the
02:20festival goes on as a beautiful event and ends with Nammalvar reaching Sri Ranganathan's
02:27Thirupadi or Lotus Feet.
02:29And that is the context of this Thiradhena Utsavam, which was started by Thirumangayalvar
02:33in Srirangam and now followed all across the Divya Deshams.
02:37Srimathe Ramayana Jaya Namaha.
02:39Ekadashis in general are very auspicious in Srivaishnava Sampradayam.
02:44Srivaishnavas used to keep fasting on Ekadashis.
02:47The most important Ekadashi of them is Sri Vaikunta Ekadashi, that is today.
02:53On this fine day, Sri Ranganathan comes out of this Paramapada Vasal, opening it only
02:58once in a year.
03:00And for these ten days, this Paramapada Vasal is kept open for Srivaishnavas, for Bhaktas
03:06to get over and get over with their Karmas and reach him, reach his Lotus Feet in Sri
03:12Vaikunta.
03:13Srimathe Ramayana Jaya Namaha.
03:16My name is Srinivasan, Thirumalai Ananthan Pillai Srinivasan, I am from Srirangam.
03:46Srimathe Ramayana Jaya Namaha.
04:16Srimathe Ramayana Jaya Namaha.
