Swami Desikan's Utsavams held during the month of Aippasi is one of best
celebrated events in the holy town of Tirupati. One can witness unbelievable
amounts of enthsiasm and the dedication from the families and children of this
temple town towards honoring our beloved acharyan. I have uploaded some
pictures from last year's saattumurai for your kind perusal.. If your travel
plans allow, I very much hope that it takes you and/or your near and dear to
Tirupati town during the month of Aippasi to witness, participate and serve
in this memorable 10 day event held at the heart of the town. The ten day
festival features chanting of entire divya prabandhams, most of desika
prabandhams and stotrapaatams.
The main highlight of this festival is the saattumurai day when Sriyahpati
Govindarajar spends the whole day at the acharyan's sannidhi (arrives at 7AM,
and leaves around 4AM the following day). To me it is an experience of a life
time. The grand saathupadis of the perumal and the acharyan bear witness to the
antiquity of the temples, moorthis, as well as the patronage they had enjoyed
over the past few centuries. Please feel free to contact adiyen if you need
more information or suggestion regarding this temple.
