Vaikunteswara SanthanaGopala Swamy Kshetram, situated in Changanassery is a rare temple of MahaVishnu who blesses the childless couples. Vigraham here is Vaikuntanathan sitting on a peetham carrying a baby in 👇

in both hands.

Temple history is related to Sandanagopalam in Sreemad Bhaghavatam, which is similar to that of Poornathrayesha Kshetram.
After the battle of Kurukshetra Arjuna became very proud of his power. Shri Krishna decided to teach Arjuna. There lived a Bhrahmin and wife
whose 8 children died at birth. With disappointment, Brahmin went to the Pandavas and asked some solution. Arjuna promised to save the next child from any danger. But he was not able to protect 9th child and he took a vow that he will end his life if couldn't protect 10th child.
Arjuna created protection using his divine weapons, but the 10th child vanished immediately after birth. Arjuna decided to end his life. At that time Shri Krishna came and took him to Vaikunta. There Arjuna saw all the 10 children playing with Maha Vishnu and Mahalakshmi.
The Vaikundeshwara Santhanagopalamoorthy has this vigraham of Mahavishnu protecting the children with both hands.
