Vaishnavite Tradition of the story exists among-st Trivarnika's and Gavara Komtis for whom Venkateshwara is their family deity. Kanyaka is not associated with Parameshwari but as an incarnation of goddess Laxmi. They pay homage to Lord Venkateshwara in the Tirumala hills. They believe in Vaishnavism which spread down south during the reign of King Vishnu Vardhana along with a decline of Jainism and Buddhism.
