Tirumala: The holy Chakrasnanam was performed in grand manner to Sudarshana Chakrattalwar in Swamy Pushkarini here on Saturday.

On a Sunny Saturday, the last day of the Srivari annual Brahmotsavam, the holy bath was rendered to the anthropomorphic form of Srivaru.

A significant number of devotees came and took holy bath in the Pushkarini.

Earlier in the morning from 3 am to 6 am Pallaki utsavam was held at the Mukha Mandapam of Sri Varaha Swami Temple.

Later, Snapana Thirumanjanam was held in grandeur to Sri Malayappa Swamy, Sridevi and Bhudevi along with Sri Sudarshana Chakrattalwar.

The archakas performed Vishvaksen Aradhana, Punyahavachanam, Mukha Prakshalanam(face cleansing), Dhoopa Nivedana (incense offering), Chhatra Chamara Vyajana Darpanadi offerings (services with umbrella and mirror) and Rajopacharam.

As a part of Arghyapada Nivedana, a bath was performed with milk, honey, coconut water, turmeric, and sandalwood.

On this occasion, TTD Veda Parayanadars recited Upanishad Mantras, Dashashanti Mantras, and Panchasukta Mantras such as Purusha Suktam, Sri Suktam, Bhu Suktam, Neela Suktam, Vishnu Suktam and Vedas related to Divya Prabandham during Abhishekam.

After the abhishekana, various Pasuras were chanted in the presence of Tirumala pontiffs Sri Sri Sri Pedda Jeeyar Swami and Sri Sri Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swami.

After the completion of all rituals to keep the world safe and happy, Chakra Snanam was performed.

Since Utsavam is a Yajna – Avabhrida Sanam was performed in the Yajna. Avabhrida is the Deekshantha Snanam which is performed at the end to get rid of the bad results caused by minor mistakes while performing the Yagna to attain good virues.

TTD Executive Officer J Syamala Rao, Additional Executive Officer Ch Venkaiah Chowdary, JEOs Gowthami, Veerabrahamam, CVSO Sridhar, other dignitaries, and a large number of devotees were present.
