True to his name (Vishnu Chitta meaning 'he whose heart is always occupied by thought of Vishnu'), he was a great devotee of Vishnu. He had a s garden where he grew the sacred Tulasi, which he daily made with other fragrant flowers into handsome wreaths and offered to the Lord( the place Vatapatrasayee (thesleeper on the banyan leaf at the time of deluge).
