Cultural Heritage
The Sri Ranganathaswamy Temple holds a unique position in the annals of Vaishnava history, particularly through its profound association with the *Alvars*, the poet-saints of Tamil Bhakti tradition. Many of these revered figures, including Thirumangai Alvar, composed fervent hymns (*pasurams*) in praise of Lord Ranganatha, enshrining the temple's spiritual eminence in the *Nalayira Divya Prabandham*. Thirumangai Alvar, in particular, is historically credited with significant construction efforts, including the fortification of several *prakarams*, thereby shaping the temple's early architectural grandeur and establishing its pre-eminence as a *Divya Desam* even before the major Chola expansions. A pivotal epoch in the temple's history was the residency of the great Vaishnava *Acharya*, Ramanujacharya, in the 11th-12th centuries CE. His administrative and ritualistic reforms, meticulously documented in the *Koil Olugu*, systematized temple worship and governance, profoundly influencing the *Sri Vaishnava* tradition. The temple endured devastating raids by the Delhi Sultanate in the early 14th century, notably Malik Kafur's invasion, which led to the displacement of the *Utsava Murti* (processional deity, Namperumal) for several decades. This period of peril and the subsequent heroic efforts to protect and restore the deity underscore the temple's resilience and its central role in preserving the Vaishnava faith during tumultuous times, culminating in its grand reconstruction under the Vijayanagara Empire.
