| Tiruttani is also
known by many other names. As it has all the wealth which was plundered by the Asuras from
Heaven, it is called Purnagiri. As the devotees' request will be fulfilled in a second it
is known as Kshanikachalam. As Lord Siva, who is the origin of the world (Moolam),
worshipped Lord Subrahmanya here, it is called Mooladri. Being full of Neelotpala (blue
lilies), this mountain abode of Lord Subrahmanya is called Neelotpalagiri, Neelagiri,
Utpalagiri, Alakadri, Kallaragiri, Kavimalai, Kuvalasikhari, Chengalvagiri and
Chengalunirkunram. The Lord is also known as Chengalvarayaswamy. As this place will exist
