Pasuram: Ongi Ulagalandha | Divyadesam: Thirukkovilur |

At the very beginning of this pasuram, Andal talks about the Trivikrama avatara, through the phrase "Ongi ulagaLandha uththaman". The Lord exhibits this form in many divyadesams. However, Srivaishnavas should consider the divyadesam of Thirukkovilur first, when thinking of this avatara. The form of the Lord as Trivikrama in this divyadesam where the Mudhal Azhvars first gathered is wonderful.
Thirumangai Azhvar in his work Thirunedunthandagam talks about the Thiruvashtakshara mantram in the pasuram "manthiraththai manthiraththAl maRavAdhu enRum vAzhudhiyEl". In order to celebrate Him who is spoken in the Thirumanthram, in the very next pasuram "oNmidhiyil punaluruvi", he speaks of the Trivikrama avatara. To worship that avatara in a divyadesam he speaks of the Thirukkovilur divyadesam in the next pasuram "pulam purandhu ponvilaikkum poygai vElip pUngkOvalUr thozhudhum pOdhu nenjchE!".
Thus, for everyone born in the lineage of those who praise Azhvars, the experience of Thirukkovilur divyadesam, when thinking of the Trivikrama avatara, will happen automatically.
Therefore, in this pasuram, Andal experiences the divyadesam of Thirukkovilur.
