Legend goes like Sage Medhavi who lived in this place prayed to Maha Vishnu to have Mahalakshmi as his
daughter, Based on his prayers, he found a beautiful girl child under vanjula tree and named her as
Vanjulavalli and brought her up. Lord Vishnu took Garuda's help to fly in search of Mahalakshmi, Garuda was
able to locate Mahalakshmi at Sage Medhavi's house and indicated the same to Lord Vishnu, Lord Vishnu took
five forms and visited Medhavi's house and he was served with food by Vajulavalli, after food, when
Vanjulavalli was pouring water to wash hands, Lord Vishnu held her hands, when she cried for help, Sage
MEdhavi came there and he saw all five forms of Vishnu become one and Lord Vishnu gave him his darshan
and asked vanjulavalli to get married to him. Sage agreed to this and asked for boon that his daughter should
get preference in this place and that tradition is still being held. Any neivedyam goes to Lord Nachiyar first and
then to Lord Srinivasa.

Kal Garudan which is another famous in this temple has been located just outside mulavar sanidhanam. Since
Lord Garudan helped Vishnu to locate this place of Mahalakshmi, Lord gave a boon that he will get equal Sri Baghavan Guru
prefernce in this temple. The legend goes that the sculpture was frustrated to make this Garudan which was Raghavendra Swamy (3)
done using Saligramam, as the Garuda kept flying away, he threw the stone on the Garuda which got hurt and
started to give the pose. Miracle here is , during the Vaigasi and Marghazhi utsavam Kal Garudar is carried out
in precession. While only four people are needed to carry the idol of Garuda out of the shrine, it multiples to 8, Followers
16, 32, 64 and 128 people when the image is taken outside the temple. The weight of the idol remains the
same when carried by 4 people and stays the same when carried outside by 128. Only supernatural force is
acting on that idol when 4 people carry, if we replicate the same idol somewhere else, 128 people are required
to lift. On the way back only 4 people are required to carry the float in the decreasing order 128, 64, 32, 16, 8,
4. The aspect is treated magical as drops of sweat are also observed on the image of Kal Garuda during the
six-hour-long procession. During the festive occasion, Garuda receives honors from Srinivasa Perumal
(presiding deity) in the form of dress and ornaments. Jewels and dress are also presented to Garuda by
Ranganatha, the presiding Vishnu form of Srirangam Ranganthaswamy Temple. It is also noted that Garudar
travels slow while Nachiyar in swan moves faster and first to bless the procession followed by Srinivasa
Perumal in Kal Garudar.
