Smt. Padma,

In its purest form, the philosophy and spiritual practices of Sri 
Vaishnavam are intended to be an enjoyment of the Wonder that Sriman 
Narayana is.  The intent of going around the temple is to see Thayar, 
the Azhwars, and the Acharyas, as well as the beauty of the temple 
architecture, saving the "best for last" with a visit to the inner 
sanctum of the Supreme Being.  Consequently, one really need only do 
this once, only out or respect for this, and if times and conditions 
permit. 

The hard and fast rituals of performing pradakshanams so many number of 
times has only come into vogue as people have lost touch with this 
natural spiritual enjoyment in favor of more codified methods.

I hope this helps.
