Dear Srimathi Yamini Suresh:

PurattAsi Saturdays and PurarattAsi SravaNam
day ( the avathAra dinam ) of Lord VenkatEsa is
very dear to bhakthAs of the Lord of Seven hills.

The Maa ViLakku festival at home observed by
the ladies of the house is a celebration of the glories
of the Lord on this special Month  . With Bhakthi
and sraddhai , the ladies and the KanyAs of the house
prepare the flower , make a little mound in the shape
of Venkatam hills , make  a space for ghee and light
the wick and at the end of the burning of the wick
accept that the Lord has reached His aasthaanam
from one's home ,where He was invited  to accept
the worship.

This is a prArTanai for fulfilment of wishes by the ladies
for SoubhAgyams to the members of the family and
for marriage fulfilment for the unmarried young women .

The key aspect of this celebration is the special prayerful
worship of the Lord of the Universe , who stands on
top of the Venkatam hills listening to Govindha nAma
sankeerthanam from all corners oft he world.

NamO VenkatEsAya,
V.Sadagopan .
