Vasanthotsavam

Vasanthotsavam is a festival of colours. It is a periodical festival celebrated in the month of Vasantham.

 


Koil Alwar Thirumanjanam

Koil Alwar Thirumanjanam is a purificatory ceremony that takes place in the sanctum. It is performed four times a year - before Ugadi, Anivari Asthanam, the annual Brahmotsavam and Vaikunta Ekadasi (on Tuesdays only).

After the First Bell, the smaller idols and other articles including the Aghandam Deepam in the sanctum are moved to the ante chamber.

The sanctum is cleaned and a ground paste of kumkum, karpooram and chandanam is applied to the walls. After a while, the walls are wiped clean.

The water-proof covering is removed, and Laghu Tirumanjanam is given to the main idol and Bhoga Srinivasa. Food is then offered to the Lord during the Second Bell.Top
