Lord Vinayaka in Sri Vishnu Temples are called ' THUMBIKAI ALWAR"; why it is so ?
Who is "THUMBIKAI ALWAR" in Srivaishnava samparadayam ?
Is there any such Alwar named in Srivaishnava tradition?
Is there any Link/ Story Connected with this "THUMBIKAI ALWAR?
I came across this link which says In Vishnu Temples, Lords senathipathi (the Army Leader) is called as Visvaksenar. He control over the Vishnu's army, He has 4 subordinates. One of them has Face of Elephant. So we call him as Thumbikai Alwar.
