#MahaPeriyava There is a reference in #MookaPanchasati that Goddess Kamakshi caused a shower of gold in Tundeeram (Tondaimandalam) to relieve the sufferings of the people. This allusion is substantiated by the existence of a place which goes by the name of Pon Vilainda Kalathur 
in the Chingleput District. There is also a tradition that #SriVedantaDesika, the renowed Sarvatantra Swatantracharya, who established the Vaishnava Sampradaya, prayed to the Goddess of Wealth, Sri Mahalakshmi, by composing and reciting Sri Stuti and obtained gold for giving it
to a Brahmachari. This Brahmachari is said to have been sent by some people envious of Sri Vedanta Desika and this youth begged for gold so that he could get himself married. This incident also seems to have taken place somewhere in the region known as Tondaimandalam.
