Q: What is karma, which is the cause of restrictive characteristics of the elemental living entity called the ‘baddhas’?

Q: Considering the special status that Sridevi enjoys among the consorts of the Lord and considering the form of address in the ‘Sri Sooktha’ as ‘Easwari’ (The Supreme Lady), is it appropriate for some people to treat her on par with the Lord?
Q: Is there any difference between Sridevi and the other consorts like Bhoodevi?
Q: What is the need for the Lord, who is not given to mundane mirth and joy to have consorts like Sridevi, Bhoodevi etc? Do the consorts belong to the category of the living entities (‘jivas’)?
Q: Why does the Lord always keep the ‘baddhas’ at a lower level of knowledge and keep the ‘nithyas’ at a higher level of knowledge? Is this not an act of partiality?
Yathokthakari Temple Renovation
“Yathoktakari” “sonnavannam seidha perumal “in Tamil translates to “the lord who did as said” what did He do? And who asked to do the same? The well-known story is of one of the twelve azhvars, thirumazhisaipiran asking the Lord of the divyadesam thiruvekka in Kanchipuram to follow who was himself following his disciple who was sent out of kingdom by the king since he refused to sing the praise of the king. Without any second thought yathotakari perumal rolled his serpant bed and followed azhvar and his disciple. The next day when the king realizing his mistake came and apologised azhvar and his disciple decided to come back and instructed perumal accordingly. Perumal without second word followed suit and while reclining back just changed the direction to remind us of the wonderful episode even today. Though this story is more commonly known how did perumal come to divyadesam and when?
When we say Kanchipuram or Thirukachchi only Devaperumal, Varadarajan comes to all our minds. But even before Varadarajan came out of the yaga kundam of Brahma, vegasethu perumal gave his divya darshan to all. Enraged by Brahma performing a yagna in her absence Saraswathi Devi took the form of the river vegavathi and flowed with great vigour to wash out the yagasala. On request of Brahma, perumal became vegasethu (bridge across the river vegavathi) and reclined in the way of vegavathi. Blessed with the divine darshan of perumal, Saraswathi realised her mistake and slowed down. Then brahma continued his yaga and only from that yaga kunda Varadaraja perumal appeared.
That divine temple of yathotakari/vegasethu perumal is under renovation and needs the liberal support from asthikas.
We are happy to report that we have collected the amount required to complete the renovation. We whole heartedly thank everyone for their support.
