Thampuran after consecrating the temple surrendered his State to Sri Krishna and ruled the
country as His vice-regent assuming the name of Devanarayanan. There is a story behind
this. Once the king expressed his keen desire to Vilwamangala Swamiyar to see Sri Krishna
in flesh and blood. The Swamiyar agreed but asked the king: "What would you offer to
the Lord? Even Kuchela offered Krishna beaten rice." To this the king replied that he
would offer his all including the kingdom, which he did when the sage himself offered puja
the next day When the ruler did see the sacred hand of the Lord extended to bless him.
