292. OM PAVANAYA NAMA: ॐ पवनाय नम:
He is the motive force in wind; His blessings are responsible for wind energy.
We are in Neeralur, on the National Highway between Chennai and Bangalore. It is believed that Swami Ramanuja appeared as a snake and showed the Jeer of Sri Ahobnila Mutt, presence of water here! Vimanam is called Jala koti vimanam. Here many people pray to Vimanam, sanctified by the Jeer! We can see Sri Ugra Narasimha, Who has been guarding this temple. There is no separate sannidhi for Sri Thayar. Pavana means wind. Wind causes waves in ocean and as hurricane, could cause extensive devastation. Once a test of strength was organized between Adisesha and Vayu [Pavana], according to Sri Venkatachala Mahatmyam. While Adisesha coiled around a hill, Vayu was to show his might and throw away the mountain. Despite full strength, Vayu could not even shake the mountain. Vayu feared defeat and the Lord signalled Adisesha to slightly relent and Vayu was able to force a piece of the mountain to fly and this dropped on Earth as Tirumala hills!
