289. OM JAGATASSETAVE NAMA: ॐ जगतस्सेतवे नम:
Never fails to grant punya/papa to the World.
The Lord is reclining at Thiruvekkha [in Kanchi] as a check dam [anai அணை] or bridge [sethu सेतु]. Earlier, He was told as both medicine and Doctor. Here, He is the barrier between good and eveil things. When Saraswati came speedily as a river to spoil the Yagna performed by her husband Brahma, the Lord remained as a barrier and prevented the mishap. Thus He acted according to the prayers of Brahma. He is thus called Sri Yatoktakari [श्री यतोक्तकारि ] or Sri Sonna vannam seyyum Perumal [ஸ்ரீ சொன்ன வண்ணம் செய்யும் பெருமாள்]. This Kshetram is also not maintained neatly, by visitors. We lack the responsibility to preserve our heritage!
