The king kOchcheN^katchOzar reminiscing the services of his previous birth with the grace of the Lord wanted to build many wonderful abodes to the Lord of the five Elements. He went to the place of his previous service thiruvAnaikkA and constructed a mammoth temple for the mR^ityuJNjaya. He sent his brave ministers in all the directions and built huge temples in all the states of the kingdom for the Eight shouldered Lord. He gave huge donations for the maintenance of those abodes with heart full of devotion. With his royal umbrella giving shade for a very big empire he ruled the land. He went to the Dancer in the Common place's thillai to salute the Golden feet. He constructed mansions for the disciplined priests of thillai who spent their life in the service of the Almighty. With the land praising his services he took shelter under the holy feet of the Lord who is the Supreme owner of all the fame. Let the great and holy devotion of kOchcheN^kat chOza n^AyanAr with which he built gigantic marvelous numerous temples for the Lord stay in the mind.
