For the past 25 days, Srivaishnava Jeeyangars recited the 4,000 sacred verses (Divya Prabandham) composed by the 12 Alwars every day as an offering to the Sri Venkateshwara.

As it was the final day, the “Tanneeramudu” ritual was held. After the conclusion of the festival, on January 13, Sri Malayappa Swamy with Sridevi and Bhudevi will proceed to the Sri Tirumala Nambi Temple in the South Mada Street.

GRAND TIRUMALA NAMBI “TANNEERAMUDU” FESTIVAL

In memory of the great Vaishnava saint Sri Tirumala Nambi, the annual Tanneeramudu festival was conducted in a grand manner. After the Sahasra Deepalankara Seva in the evening, Sri Malayappa Swamy was taken in procession around the Mada Streets to the Vahana Mandapam.

Descendants of Tirumala Nambi carried sacred water from Akasa Ganga in pots on their heads to the Vahana Mandapam. Amidst Vedic chants, the Jeeyar Swamis, Acharyas and scholars offered this holy water to the Sri Venkateshwara. The priests then performed Abhishekam to the golden armour on the feet of the Sri Venkateshwara with this sacred water, while Tirumala Nambi’s Tirumoli Pasurams were recited.

The event was attended by Hh Sri Sri Sri Pedda Jeeyar Swami, HH Sri Sri Sri Chinna Jeeyar Swamijis of Tirumala and TTD officials.
