Religious fervour marks Anivara Asthanam

Tirumala: The annual traditional temple budget fete Anivara Asthanam was held with utmost religious fervour at the hill shrine of Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala on Tuesday.

The ritual marks the commencement of annual accounts of Srivari temple on the last day of Tamil month Ani. This ritual was held at Bangaru Vakili wherein the processional deities of Sri Malayappa Swamy along with Sridevi and Bhudevi accompanied by Sri Vishwaksenula Varu were seated in Garudalwar Sannidhi.

The formalities of the fete were carried out in the presence of Tirumala pontiffs Sri Pedda Jeeyar Swami and Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swami and TTD EO J Syamala Rao.

The Utsava idols were mounted on Sarva Bhupala Vahanam and later special pujas were performed to the Mula Virat and Utsava idols and Prasada Nivedana was offered.

Thereafter the senior Tirumala pontiff carried six pattu vastrams in a silver plate on his head and entered Srivari temple amidst Mangala Vayidyams followed by his deputy and EO wherein four pattu vastrams were decorated to the Mula Virat, while one to Sri Malayappa and another one to Sri Viswaksena utsava idols.
