Dear Sri Vaishnava perunthagayeer
Yesterday adiyen got the bhagyam of being at sri perumbudur during
Thirumanjanam and noticed that before start of thirumanjanam -
initially Paanagam and vadaiparuppu has been offerred to perumal and
distributed to aasthikas. One of the devotee was telling that - at
Sriperumbudur - thirumanjanam shall be performed only after offering
something to Emberuman and the Lord. Is it so? if yes, what is the
Thaathparyam involved in this.
Secondly, adiyen has offered Sarkarai pongal Thaligai for emberumaan
and was advised to be at the temple for performing darshan and
collection of prasadam after offering to HIM. I was told to bring
only a small vessel for prasadam - rest of the Upacharam for
Archana's will be included in the money gave for Thaligai.
Though i was well in time, there was no one to guide me the
formalities. As i was told archanai will be conducted and no
Upacharam to be carried by the upayadar .. incidentally i did not
bring any upacharam for performing archana except Ghee and jasmine.
When adiyen approached the archagar to perform archanao - i was
asked "whether i have any Upacharam to be offerred for performing
archana" when i told him - what i was informed while booking the
ofering ... he was telling me that "if you offer for Thaligai it is
only for Thaligai - and you have to bring upacharam for archana and
all separately. The people in the office - when approached were
very reckless in answering - but were in a hurry to ask me whether
prasadam shall be distributed at the Koshti fully or whether such
shall be given back to me fully!!!
I felt very bad on the behaviour (sorry to say this here) and
advised them to distribute entire thing in the Koshti after
satrumurai . Then one archagar was kind enough to tell me that int
his temple... lots of property is there - which is misused and the
Koil office also does not care to inform PUBLIC the real formalities
and the facilities. etc. etc.
I had great darshan and felt I was blessed.
But becoz of lack of info. from the temple authorities - i was made
to run back for procuring Upacharams like coconut - fruits, etc. for
archanai - apart from paying for Thaligai. NO matter to buy - If i
was informed properly - i need not have run here and there and feel
bit shame ...
While intimating to one of the officer at the Temple Office, he was
simply smiling at me and said it is all sagajam here......
