             At once the Lord hastened to make apologies to the angry Sage and pressed his feet to ease the pain caused to the leg. In doing so the Lord removed the eye in the foot of the Sage, which gave him power as to defy the Devas. The Sage thereupon decided that Sri MahaVishnu was the most Supreme of the Trimurtis and told the Rishis the same.
They thereupon decided that Sri MahaVishnu was the fruit of the Yaga and sacrifice was offered to Him (Vishnu).Sri Mahalakshmi left Vaikuntham as Lord Vishnu did not punish Sage Brighu for his actions i.e. kicking on his chest, the place where Sri Mahalakshmi resides. After the departure of Mahalakshmi, Lord Vishnu left Vaikuntha in a forlorn condition and took his abode in an ant-hill on the Venkata Hill under a tamarind tree beside a Pushkarini

Yasoda brought up Sri Krishna, the son of Devaki, in his early years. Yasoda was not blessed to witness the marriage of Sri Krishna with Rukmini and she felt very sad. Sri Krishna promised to fulfil her desire in her next birth as Vakuladevi in his next Avatara as Srinivasa (Lord Vishnu). Vakuladevi was sent to serve Srinivasa (Lord Vishnu) by Lord Varahasvami, on whom she was attending till Srinivasa (Lord Vishnu) came to Venkatachala.
