Thiruthetriyambalam (Palli Konda Perumal Temple), Thirunangur – Literary Mention
The temple is revered in Nalayira Divya Prabandham, the 7th–9th century Vaishnava canon, by Thirumangai Azhwar. The temple is classified as a Divyadesam, one of the 108 Vishnu temples that are mentioned in the book. It is one among the eleven divyadesams of Thirunangur Tirupathis and is closely associated with Thirumangai Alvar. The temple is praised in the Mangalasasanam hymn of Saint Tirumangai Azhwar saying that those chanting the glory of Senganmal would be kings on earth and be one among those blessed souls in heaven.
