The '''Thiruneermalai temple complex''' consists of two temples, the '''Ranganatha Temple''' and the '''Thiruneermalai Neervanna Perumal Temple'''. Both are [[Hindu temples]] in [[Thiruneermalai]], a populated place in [[Kovur, Chennai|Kovur]], a town in [[Chengalpattu district]], [[Tamil Nadu]], [[India]].

[[File:Thiruneermalai Hill Entrance, Chennai, India.jpg|thumb|129x129px|Steps to Holy Hill]]
There are two temples, one at the top of the hill and other in the foothills. In all, the temple occupies an area of {{convert|15|acre|ha|abbr=on}}, with the lower shrine covering {{convert|3|acre|ha|abbr=on}}. The presiding deity of the temple in the foothills is Neervana Perumal in standing posture. Ranganatha is the presiding deity uphill and the shrine, ''[[vimana]]'' above the sanctum is called Ranga Vimana. There are images of Trivikrama and Narasimha around the first precinct. The temple tank is called the Kshira [[Pushkarini]] and it is believed to feed the waters of [[Vaikunta|Vaikuntha]], and the [[Kshira Sagara|Ocean of Milk]]. The Karunya Pushkarini is the second tank, which is believed to have formed from the weeping of Narasimha, who was moved by the divine prayers of [[Prahlada]]. There are two other tanks called Svarna Pushkarini and Siddha Pushkarini.<ref name=census/>

It is dedicated to the [[Hindu deities|Hindu deity]] [[Vishnu]], regionally referred to as Neervana Perumal and [[Ranganatha]]. The complex is of two parts: one at the base of the hill for the primary deity Neervanan, featured in a standing posture, and also housing shrines of his consort Animamalarmangai Tayar, Kalyana [[Rama|Ramar]], and [[Andal]]. The shrine for Anjaneya ([[Hanuman]]) is to the right, upon the hill shrine. The temple complex up the hill has three shrines for Ranganatha, found in reclining posture, [[Vamana|Trivikrama]], featured in a walking posture), [[Narasimha]], featured in a sitting posture. There also exists a shrine for [[Ranganayaki]] Tayar, facing the east. It is a double ''[[prakaram]]'' (outer courtyard) temple. The [[Garuda]] shrine faces the deity.

The temple has lot of inscriptions from the [[Chola]] and later [[Pandyas]], indicating generous contributions to the temple.<ref name=census/>

==Legend==
[[File:Thiruneermalai flag staff.jpg|thumb|224x224px|Flag staff at Sri Ranganathaswamy temple on hill top]]
According to this temple's [[Sthala purana|regional legend]], this site is referred to as Toyatri, meaning a mountain surrounded by water. ''Thiruneermalai'', the modern [[Tamil language|Tamil]] name also means a sacred mountain surrounded by water. Among the eight sacred Vishnu temples where he manifested himself called the ''Ashtasvayamvaka Kshetra''. According to regional legend, Sage [[Valmiki]], after composing the epic ''[[Ramayana]]'', worshipped Ranganatha at the top of the hill. When he came downhills, he wanted to receive a [[Darshan (Indian religions)|theophany]] of [[Rama]], who appeared for the devotee. [[Lakshmi]] appeared as [[Sita]], [[Shesha|Adi Shesha]] appeared as [[Lakshmana]], Vishnu's conch, the [[Panchajanya]] as [[Bharatha]], his discus, the [[sudarshana chakra|Sudarshana Chakra]] as [[Shatrughna]], and [[Garuda]] in the form of [[Hanuman]].<ref name=census>{{cite book|title=Temples of Tamil Nadu Kancheepuram District|publisher= Directorate of Census Operations, Tamil Nadu|year=2003|last=C.|first=Chandramouli}}</ref>

As per a legend, the poet-saint [[Thirumangai Azhwar|Thirumangai Alvar]] was held up in the top of the mountain for six months as the place was surrounded by water. Thirumangai Alvar has glorified the temple highlighting the unique aspect of the temple where Vishnu is seen in four different poses of Standing (Neervana Perumal), Lying (Sriranganathar), Sitting (Narasimha) and walking (Trivikrama). [[Bhoothath Alvar]] also composed hymns praising the temple.<ref name=census/>

==Religious practices==
Two Bramhotsavams and the Uttiram (Birth star of mother goddess) are celebrated. The Bramhotsavam of Neervanan is held in the Tamil month of Panguni (mid March – mid April) and for Rangantha Perumal in the month of Chittirai (mid April – mid May). While Panguni Uttiram is celebrated for [[Ranganayaki]] Tayar, Masi Uttiram is celebrated of Animamalarmangai Tayar, the consort of Neervana Perumal.

The temple rituals are conducted as per the [[Vaikhanasa]] tradition.

==History==
The magazine, initially called ''The Liberal Prospect'', was founded in 1990 by [[Robert Kuttner]], [[Robert Reich]], and [[Paul Starr]] as a response to the perceived ascendancy of [[Conservatism in the United States|conservatism]] in the 1980s. Kuttner and Starr currently serve as co-editors. As of June 2019, [[David Dayen]] serves as executive editor<ref>Prospect Staff, ''[https://prospect.org/videos/david-dayen-on-rolling-stone-useful-idiots/ David Dayen Breaks Down the GameStop Story on Useful Idiots]'', The American Prospect, February 1, 2021</ref> and Ellen J. Meany serves as Publisher.<ref name="TAPstaff">{{cite web|title=About The American Prospect|url=https://prospect.org/about|url-status=live|access-date=25 February 2020|website=The American Prospect}}</ref>

Current editors include Managing Editor Ryan Cooper, Co-founder and Co-editor Robert Kuttner, Editor-at-Large [[Harold Meyerson]], Co-founder and Co-editor Paul Starr, and Deputy Editor Gabrielle Gurley.

In March 2010, ''The American Prospect'' entered into an affiliation with [[Demos (U.S. think tank)|Demos]], a public policy research and advocacy center based in New York City. The official affiliation ended in 2012. That year, the magazine nearly folded due to financial struggles, but it was able to raise enough money to stay afloat.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Calderone|first1=Michael|title=American Prospect Exceeds Fundraising Goal, Raises Enough To Stay Alive|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/20/american-prospect-fundraising_n_1612373.html|access-date=10 December 2015|publisher=Huffington Post}}</ref> In 2014, the magazine re-purposed itself as a "quarterly journal of ideas".

In 2019, The Prospect celebrated its 30th anniversary. At the anniversary gala, Kuttner said, "''The Prospect'' has been all about connecting dots—between the structural corruptions of capitalism, the deep analysis of how that operates politically, the narrative story of how regular people experience it, the related corruption of our democracy, and the movement politics of taking America back."<ref>{{Cite web|last=Meyerson|first=Harold|title=Sisyphus Is Happy|url=https://prospect.org/api/content/1556d8c2-f6a3-11e9-8a42-1244d5f7c7c6/|access-date=2021-02-25|website=The American Prospect|language=en-us}}</ref>

In 2000, thanks to a grant from the [[Schumann Center for Media and Democracy]], it became biweekly.<ref>{{cite news|last=Goodison|first=Donna L.|title=Just what are the prospects for The American Prospect? |url=http://www.bizjournals.com/boston/stories/2002/06/17/newscolumn1.html|newspaper=Boston Business Journal}}</ref> Financial and logistical difficulties ensued, and the magazine moved to a ten-issue-per-year format in spring 2003 and a bimonthly format in summer 2012. The online version of the magazine included a blog called TAPPED (derived from TAP, the acronym of ''The American Prospect''). Facing financial issues, the magazine reduced its bi-monthly publication schedule to a quarterly publication schedule in 2014.<ref name=buzz/> Starting in 2020, the magazine returned to a bimonthly schedule.

''The Prospect'' releases periodic special issues, including the Green New Deal (November 2019), Caregiving in Crisis (October 2020), and the Supply Chain Debacle (February 2022).
