| Kanninun Shiruttaambu | The Kanninun Sirithambu is a poem by Madhurakavi Azhwar in praise of his guru Nammazhwar. In it he describes how Nammazhwar is even dearer to him than Sriman Narayana. |
| Namalwar Thiruvaymoli | The Thiruvaimozhi is a set of 1000 verses revealed by Nammazhwar in praise of Sriman Narayana. It captures the very essence of the Vedas, describing the doctrines of Sri Vaishnavism in general and Sharanagati in particular, and is drenched with the greatest Bhakti the world has ever seen. |
| Azhwar Emperumanar Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Sharanam | “The holy feet of Nammazhwar, Ramanujacharya, and Manavala Mamunigal are my refuge.” |
| Caste | 8 out of 12 alwars were not born in a brahmin family. madhurakavi alwar was not originally accepted as an alwar. Sriman Naaraayana shows us that everyone is eligible for salvation - regardless of gender, caste, past sins committed.
