It was during the time , when the news came that Swamy Alavandar was sick and desired to meet Swamy Ramanuja . Swamy Ramanuja meanwhile had association of the great devotee Swamy Tirukkachi Nambi who obtained from Lord Varadaraja the famous ‘ Six Words ‘ and the six words provided the guidelines for Swamy Ramanuja to follow.
( i ) that Lord Sriman Narayana is the Paramatma. (ii ) that the individual souls were different from Paramatma. (iii) that Prapatti is the means to attain salvation. (iv) that the last remembrance of the Lord on the part of the departing soul was not necessary. (v) that Moksha can be obtained only on laying off the mortal coils (Videha Mukti) and (vi) Ramanuja should take refuge at the feet of Periya Nambi.
Accordingly, when he met Periya Nambi at Madurantakam he pleaded to perform Samashranayam without wasting any time . And thus under the shade of Vakula tree Periya Nambi performed Pancha Samskara to him.
As he was initiated into the esoteric of Dvaya Mantra at Madurantakam, the place came to be known as “Dvayam Vilaindha Tiruppathi”
