As a young man he came to Srirangam and made it his life to weave garlands for Ranganatha every day. He planted a flower garden himself, tended the plants, and stayed unmarried, absorbed in that one service.\n\nOne day a dancer named Devadevi from Uraiyur walked past the garden with her sister. Vipranarayana did not even notice them; his eyes stayed on his plants. Stung that this man ignored her beauty, Devadevi wagered with her sister that she would win him. She came back in plain clothes, stood humbly as a woman wishing to serve, and began working in the garden. One rainy day, seeing her standing drenched, Vipranarayana gave her his upper cloth. From that day his heart leaned towards her. He went with her to Uraiyur and lost all his wealth. When the money ran out, her household threw him out.\n\nThen Ranganatha himself, taking the form of a servant named 'Azhagiya Manavalan', took a golden vessel from the temple to Devadevi's house and said, 'Vipranarayana sent this.' Next day the vessel was missed at the temple and found at Devadevi's house. Vipranarayana was seized as a thief. That night the Lord appeared to the king in a dream and told him the truth, and Vipranarayana was released.\n\nThe mercy of a Lord who would not let him go, who came looking for him and brought him back, broke him open. From then on he thought of himself as the dust on the feet of devotees and took the name 'Thondaradippodi'. Tradition says he would accept as holy water only the water that had washed devotees' feet. The Thirumalai was born from that gratitude and humility. In the pasuram 'Soodhanai kalvanagi' (887) he tells his own past without hiding it.","reflection_ta":"\u0ba8\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b89\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bae\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0bb5\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc1 \u0b8e\u0bb5\u0bcd\u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bb5\u0bc1 \u0ba8\u0bc7\u0bb0\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bca\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bcb\u0bae\u0bcd?","reflection_en":"How much of our day do we actually give to what matters most to us?","image_prompt":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/9988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/verse"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/9988\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10865,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/verse\/9988\/revisions\/10865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"kural_section","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/kural_section?post=9988"},{"taxonomy":"literary_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/literary_category?post=9988"},{"taxonomy":"author_poet","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/author_poet?post=9988"},{"taxonomy":"thinai_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thinai_type?post=9988"},{"taxonomy":"work_title","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tamil.one\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/work_title?post=9988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
