We invite you to travel with us for a while on the river of imagination in the flood of primordial time. Let us fast forward at the rate of a century per second to nineteen eighty-two years (written in 1950) before today.

In the southern part of the Tirumunapadi country, between the Thondai country and the Chola country, two kathadoors to the west of Thillaich Chirambalam, a lake like the ocean of waves stretches out. It is called Veeranarayana Lake. It is one and a half ears long in south north and half an ear wide in east west. Over time, its name has been corrupted and today it is given the name of 'Veeranathu Lake'. Anyone who sees the Veeranarayana Lake in the months of Aadi Avani when a new flood comes and the lake is full of water is a great achievement of our ancestors of Palantamili in their time.
One can't help but feel proud and awestruck about things. Did our forefathers only do what was in their own interest and the interest of their contemporaries? Didn't they accomplish great deeds in the motherland that would be beneficial to the thousand-year-old descendants who would come to them later?

On the evening before the eighteenth day of Adith Monday, a young hero was riding a horse on the banks of the Vira Narayana lake, which was as wide as the waves. He belongs to the Vanar clan famous in the heroic history of Tamil Nadu. His name is Vallavarayan Vandiyathevan. His horse was walking slowly, tired from a long journey. The young warrior didn't care about that. The sight of the vast Avan Veera Narayana Lake had so charmed his soul.

On the 18th day of Aadi, all the rivers of Cholanatu are flooded, touching both banks. The lakes that receive water from those rivers are usually full and the waves touch the top of the banks. The water from the river given by the devotees as Vada Kaveri and as Kollidam by the common people came through Vadavaat and flowed into the Veera Narayana Lake, turning it into a raging sea. 

Through the seventy-four passes of the lake, the water was gushing and providing water for a long distance. Plowing and planting were going on in the fields with the lake water as far as the eye could see. The peasants who were plowing and the peasant women who were planting were singing melodious songs here and there.
