  • Thondaradippodi Alvar or Vipra Narayana was one of the twelve Alvar saints of South India, who are known for their affiliation to Vaishnava tradition of Hinduism. The verses of Alvars are compiled as Naalayira Divya Prabandham and the 108 temples revered are classified as Divya desam. Thondaripodi is considered the tenth in the line of the twelve Alvars. As per Hindu legend, he was born as Vipra Narayana and got devoted to Ranganatha of the Srirangam Ranganathaswamy temple. Since he worshipped even the dust from the devotees of Ranganatha, he attained the name Thondaradipodi. His works are the Tiruppallieluchi having ten verses, and Tirumālai having forty verses, both of which are counted among the 4000 stanzas in the Naalayira Divya Prabandam. The works of Thondaradipodi and other Alvars contributed to the philosophical and theological ideas of Vaishnavism. Along with the three Saiva nayanmars, they influenced the ruling Pallava kings of the South Indian region, resulting in changing the religious geography from Buddhism and Jainism to the two sects of Hinduism. In South-Indian Vishnu temples, Thondaradipodi Alvar has images and festivals associated with him. The Vasantha Utsavam festival is celebrated in Srirangam and for nine days in the garden believed to have been maintained by him. The verses of Thondaripodi and other Alvars are recited as a part of daily prayers and during festive occasions in most Vishnu temples in South India. (en)
  • Тондарадипподи — вайшнавский тамильский святой, принадлежавший к группе 12 поэтов-подвижников альваров. Тондарадипподи родился в маленькой деревне под названием Тирумандагуди. Его отца звали Ведавишарадха. Он принадлежал к брахманскому роду, чьим основным занятием было воспевание славы Вишну. При рождении родители дали младенцу имя Випранараянар. С раннего детства родители воспитывали сына в духе бхакти. Согласно легенде, однажды маленькому Випранараянару явился предводитель войска Вишну Вишвакшенан и поведал ребёнку о цели его рождения на земле и о том, что тот болжен был культивировать бхакти для достижения мокши. После этого эпизода Тондарадипподи решил совершить паломничество по всем святым местам вайшнавизма в Южной Индии, начав его с храма Ранганатхи в Шрирангаме. По прибытии в Шрирангам он настолько привлёкся красотой божества Ранганатхи, что решил посвятить свою жизнь служению ему, ежедневно делая для божества цветочные гирлянды. Для этой цели Тондарадипподи основал в Шрирангаме большой цветочный парк, поселившись посреди него в маленькой хижине. (ru)
