Letting them to graze in one place, he and his friends will feel tired due to the long walk undertaken by them. Added to that, hunger would force them to be weak in their stomachs. Determining that \u201cThis is the time to eat the desired food\u201d he will send his friend to the hermitage of the sages to get food. However, the sages will be intent in their work [of carrying out rituals to emperumAn], not bothering about the guest. Since they were intent in the conduct of their rituals, kaNNan would send his friend to the place where the wives of the sages would be present, asking for food. When they send the food for them with affection, since his divine physical form would start perspiring and his stomach would feel weak, he would eat that food with desire. Hence, the food became <em>vENdadisil<\/em> (desired food sent by the wives of sages). emperumAn accepts the food offered by rishis [as<em> havis<\/em>] in the ritual, while desiring a benefit, as a duty, just as swAmys, during <em>thiruvadhyayanam<\/em> [<em>SrAdhdham<\/em>] accept the food, after wetting their feet. However, he accepts the food affectionately offered by the wives of <em>rishis<\/em>, gleefully. The food offered by <em>rishi pathnis<\/em> is similar to the food offered with affection by the divine daughter of periyAzhwAr [ANdAL herself], as mentioned in <a href=\"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2024\/09\/nachchiyar-thirumozhi-9-7\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"53957\">nAchchiyAr thirumozhi 9-7<\/a> \u201c<em>inRu vandhu iththanaiyum amudhu seydhidappeRil onRu nURAyiramAgak koduththup pinnum ALum seyvan<\/em>\u201d.
