THE HINDU
By S. Prabhu
INDIA---The Lord of Parthanpalli is the only Divya Desam deity, among the 11 Vishnu Temples in Thiru Nangur, who is praised by an Azhwar in addition to Parthan Palli, one of the 11 Divya Desams in Thiru Nangur, is being renovated. Legend has it that Arjuna reached this place while on a pilgrimage. It was also here that Arjuna was initiated with ‘Knowledge Education’ by Lord Parthasarathy to make the former understand who he really was and what his real powers were. Since Arjuna had this ‘initiation’ here and played the role of a student, this temple came to be known after him as ‘Parthan Palli.’ [link]
