121 OM SASWATHASTHANAVE NAMA:
Ever eternal and always with devotees.
We are in Thuvariman agraharam. It is still maintaining its antiquity. In the river Krithamala, the Lord appeared as Sri Matsya Murthy to Pandya King Satyavratha, and that is why Pandya's emblem is fish. The nectar of heavens can never prevent death, but might increase life by some or many years, But the Amrut, the Lord can give us eternal living in Vaikuntam. When Devas desired to have amrut, the Lord helped them in many ways: as the mount Meru, as serpent Vasugi, by supporting the mount from below by हिस Sri Koorma Avatara, by His invisible multiple hands in churning, by supporting the mount from falling down, etc. But the Devas never recognised Him. After the amrut was taken He took the beautiful woman form -Sri Mohini-, then also they never worshiped. Swami Parashara Bhattar says Devas were after the cheap amrut, which never guaranteed eternity and lost the real Amrut, the Lord. The Garuda in this temple is called Amruta kalasa hastha Garuda. Garuda is the embodiment of Vedas and in his hands is the Amrut, the lord. Vedas have the Lord in them.
