several years. Thirunavukkarasar
passionately sung 10 songs praising the glories of Lord and miraculously the
temple doors were opened, Sambandhar zealously
sang admiring the glories of Lord and the doors were shut instantly. Sambandhar and Appar spent their nights in
this temple premise. Appar was distressed
at the above incident; he had a dream in that compassionate Lord instructed him
to visit the shrine at Thiruvamoor. Appar
immediately set off to Thiruvamoor without the knowledge of Sambandhar and Lord
Shiva led him to this temple. Sambandhar
was anxiously searched all over for Appar and arrived at Thiruvamoor. Appar
fervently sang praising the Lord pleading Him to reveal his presence to
Sambandhar in any case. Immediately Lord revealed his presence to
Sambandhar that brought him immense bliss.
Further, Sambandhar was benevolently revealed the image of Lord to Appar that brought
him into ecstasy.
