Shloka 42

Born as animate or inanimate object in Thirumala is ultimate

Swami Desikan describes the glory of Thirumala, the aboard of
ThiruvEnkatamudayAn. The intellects (Brahma jnyanis) know the
limitations of the wealth of BrahmA and IndrA. They seek Lord
Srinivasa who is embraced by Dayaa Devi and longing for the look
of Him. To get that glance, they are longing to be born as moving or
stationary objects in Thirumala. To them the blessings of such a birth is
superior to the glories of Brahma Pattam (Post). Here KulasEkara
AlwAr’s prayer to be born as steps in Thirumala is to be noted.
