ANNADANA PRABHU OF VAIKOM

True, that earthly power may close its eyes against that unlawful intrusion, but the highest and mightiest power tolerates not such presumptuousness. The Lord surveying the large number of horses desecrating the pious campus, decided to teach the arrogant minister a lesson. On the next morning when the Minister went to see the horses bought, he found dogs. Realising his folly, he observed fast and prayed to the Lord for pardon. 

After special prayers, he sprinkled the holy thirtha on the barking beasts. What a miracle! The harsh barking at once changed into musical neighing. A reward for repentance; and punishment for transgression. The Lord of Vaikom kept the scales even. Why, he does always! Under all circumstances. His transcendental compassion transcends mine-thine considerations. And he rains bliss, if genuine soulful prayers arc offered. This is the specialty of the Vaikom lord! And that accounts for its popularity!! And a fast growing and never failing consolation to the adorning community!!!
