108 Divya Desam
#3rd ( I )
#Thirutanjai
The Moolavar is Neelamega perumal and the thayar is sengamalavalli.Three Asuras named Tanjan, Gajamulhan and Tandakan performed tapas towards Shiva and obtained boons that they would be invincible by Devas and Humans and that they would not be killed by Lord Shiva.They then invaded indralokha and tortured Devas.This is the time where parasara Muni had his Hermitage.The entire country was in severe drought.However, the muni's ashram had enough water and the place was lush green always.The rakshasas lead by the 3 brothers came to this ashram to drink water and to give Muni trouble.Parasara Muni then prayed to perumal who sent his chakra to destroy the assuras.All the Asura's were killed except Tanjan, Gajamulhan and Tandakan .Perumal cut Tanjan's head .Narasimha killed Gajamukhan and Tandakhan tried to hide in earth.Perumal the took the form of Varaha and killed him as well.The Asuras sought refuge to Perumal and Perumal gave them salvation.This town is called tanjai in the memory of that assuran Tanjan.Sri Nainar Acharya son of swami desikan ordained here during the Anadhyana periods, when Divya prabandham was not recited.Desika prabhandams should be recited in all temples.Here the perumal is made of Sodai ( Lime ) and hence no Thirumanjanam.Thirumanjamam is only for Utsavar.Moolvar had Thailakappu only.The perumal looks magestic having senkol in his hands..
