Kanchi Trust joins hands with Ahobila Mutt 

Kancheepuram (TN), July 19: The Kanchi Kamakoti Trust has joined 
hands with the Ahobila Mutt in Andhra Pradesh for making a golden 
chariot for the latter at a cost of Rs 70 lakh.

The chariot would be used for the presiding deity of the Ahobila 
Mutt, Lord Narasimha, Kanchi Sankaracharya Jayendra Saraswathi told 
newspersons here today.

He said the Jeeyar of Ahobila Mutt, a Vaishnavite mutt having a large 
number of followers throughout the country, had visited the Kanchi 
Mutt recently and appreciated the golden chariot in the mutt here. 

The Jeeyar also had darshan of the 'saligramam', said to have been 
received by Adi Sankara from Lord Narasimha at Ahobilam, kept in the 
Kanchi Mutt.


The Acharya said because of the connections Adi Sankara had with 
Ahobilam, the Kanchi Kamakoti Trust had decided to jointly make the 
golden chariot, adding that it would be made from contributions from 
devotees. (Agencies)
