Oldest Vishnu Temple in Chennai. 
Whenever the need arises for Maha Vishnu to incarnate on this earth to protect mankind. He is invariably accompanied by Mahalakshmi who also appears in different human forms. Vedavalli thayar of Thiruvellikeni Temple preceded perumal in reaching the abode.
Thiruvellikeni so named after the pond rich with all flowers was where the sage Brighu had established his ashram. One day he was delighted to find a baby girl under a sandalwood tree and asked his wife to tend to her and bring her up as their own daughter. She was named Vedavalli the personification of vedas themselves. The baby was none other than Mahalakshmi. Who had descended to the earth on the pretex of a small dispute with the Lord.
When the baby grew up to marigable age, Maha vishnu came down as a glorious prince. Sage Brigu saw him and was overwhelmed with devotion. The Lord then gave him a glimpse of his form with conch discus and sword. The sain however noticed that Mahalakshmi was missing from his chest. When he enquired about her he was told that Vedavalli was none other than Mahalakshmi and requested the sage Brighu for her hand in marriage. The sage said that his daughter had to consent for the proposal which she did. The Lord remaind there and took up a resting shayana position and is even today seen in this temple as the reclining main deity of the temple. This was indeed the punya kshetram where these events unfolded. The vibes one gets even today on visiting this glorious temple is to be experienced.
