Thirumalisai Thondaradipodi

 Having heard of the Lord accepting Thirumazhisai Azhwar’s request to come out of the kingdom in Thiruvekka (Divya Desam) in Kanchipuram and later providing a special ‘Maaru Sayanam’ posture on his return, and also the story of darshan in another special posture in Thiru Kudanthai (Kumbakonam) with his Uththana Sayanam,

Thondaradipodi was keen that he too be given a special darshan by his favourite Lord Ranganatha. Ranganatha promised him to provide such a darshan but asked him to go to his birth place at Thiru Mandangudi. Unwillingly, he left Srirangam and reached Thiru Mandangudi where to his surprise, he was welcomed by Lord Rangantha, in a special and rare standing posture.As the Lord acceded to Thondaradipodi’s request for a special darshan, the Lord here at this ancient 1,000-year-old temple in Mandangudi is referred to as ‘Varam Tharum’ Perumal.
