Thiruvadari Asramam is traditionally enumerated as number 104 among the 108 Divya Desams — the sacred abodes of Sri Maha Vishnu sung by the Alvars.
Perialvar and Thirumangai Alvar have have sung 1 and 21 songs respectively in praise of the Lord in this divyadesa. Nine pasurams of Thirumangai Alvar are given below with its meaning:-

Before we bend double with age and develop all the infirmities of old age like needing a walking stick to help our faltering feet and have to rest often to catch our breath; go to Badri and offer worship to the Perumal Who sucked the life out of Poothana the demoness.,
Here the Alvar says that to trek up to Badri is a very difficult task especially when one is old. At that time, both physically and mentally it will be a tough assignment. So he advises the devotees to go to Badri even when youth is on our side. PASURAM 969: ‘

ing your back with one hand and with the other holding a walking stick, with your body trembling with old age and eyes feeling dizzy and coughing loudly (ie. exhibiting all the infirmities of advanced age) and dub you as a decrepit old man and make fun of you, go and worship the Lord at Badri where the honey bees are singing sweetly after having sucked honey from the luscious, scented groves.
Here the Alvar exhorts the devotees to go to Badri even when young, hale, hearty and in full possession of all senses. Then, as now, a pilgrimage to Badri needs a healthy body.
The Alvar refers to the singing of the honey bees at Badri. Bees are believed to represent Mumukshus i.e. enlightened souls. The commentators say that those souls have enjoyed the divine bliss to the utmost and so are singirig in Sama gana style “Haavuu Hauvuu Hauvuu”. That is the tune which the bees in Badri are singing after imbibing in full, the honey (Makarandha Maadhuree Jeevitha). PASURAM 970:
