- (void)Searchpage:(id)sender {
    searchpage* popoverContent = [[searchpage alloc]
                                  init];    
    UINavigationController *navigationController = [[[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:popoverContent] autorelease];

    //resize the popover view shown
    //in the current view to the view's size
    popoverContent.contentSizeForViewInPopover =
    CGSizeMake(320,650);

    //create a popover controller
    self.popoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc]
                              initWithContentViewController:navigationController];
    //present the popover view non-modal with a
    //refrence to the button pressed within the current view
    [self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectMake(600, 0, 0, 0)
                                            inView:self.view
                          permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny
                                          animated:YES];

    //release the popover content

    [popoverContent release];    

}

in the search page popover controller ,i put this code to redirect to main view

- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    // Navigation logic may go here. Create and push another view controller.
    ParallelReadViewController *detailViewController = [[ParallelReadViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"ParallelReadViewController" bundle:nil];


    [self.navigationController pushViewController:detailViewController animated:YES];

    [detailViewController release];    
    delegate.selectedBook = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"book"];
    delegate.selectedChapter = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"chapter"];
    delegate.selectedVerse = [[searchResults objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] objectForKey:@"verse"];
    [delegate reloadVerses];


}

parallelViewController is the Main view,but now i get the Mainview inside the popover controller.i just want to dismiss this popover controller and navigate to parallelviewcontroller.how to do this.
Thanks in advance.

You can use

- (void)dismissPopoverAnimated:(BOOL)animated

method to dismiss popover.

And can refer following link for more info – http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIPopoverController_class/Reference/Reference.html

EDIT –
You can get your class that contains popover by using –

NSArray *viewControllerArray = [[self.navigationController.viewControllers copy] autorelease];
int arrayElementCount = [viewControllerArray count];
YourViewController *aViewController;
for(int index = 0 ; index < arrayElementCount ; index++) {
    if([[viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:index] isKindOfClass:[YourViewController class]]) {
        aViewController = [viewControllerArray objectAtIndex:index];
    }       
}
[aViewController.popoverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
