Koil Alwar Tirumanjanam Held in Srinivasa Mangapuram Temple

In view of the annual Brahmotsavams scheduled to be held from February 8 to 16, the Koil Alwar Thirumanjanam was performed with grandeur on Thursday at the Sri Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy Temple, Srinivasamangapuram. It is a customary ritual to conduct Koil Alwar Thirumanjanam prior to the commencement of the Brahmotsavams.

On this occasion, the Lord was awakened in the early hours with Suprabhatam, followed by Tomala Seva, Koluvu, and Panchanga Sravanam. The Koil Alwar Thirumanjanam was conducted from 6.30 am to 11.00 am. As part of the ritual, the temple premises, walls, ceilings, puja articles, and all other items were first cleansed with water. Thereafter, a sacred mixture prepared with fragrant substances such as Namam powder, Srichurnam, kasturi turmeric, pachaku, edible camphor, sandalwood powder, kumkum, kicherigadda, and other aromatic ingredients was sprinkled throughout the temple. Devotees were allowed for darshan from 11.00 am onwards.

Donation of Curtains:

Sri Mani of Tirupati donated two curtains and two kuralas to the temple. These will be utilized during the forthcoming Brahmotsavams.

The programme was attended by Special Grade Deputy EO Smt. Varalakshmi, Vigilance Officer, Sri Giridhar, AE0 Sri Gopinath, Superintendent Sri Ramesh Babu, Temple Inspectors Sri Dhanasekhar and Sri Munikumar, Temple Archaka Sri Balaji Rangacharyulu, and other officials.
