Software Does the Hardcore Job as Seva

 








They do appear soft but render hard core service as Vahanam bearers and beget the blessings of Sri Padmavati Ammavaru.


Meet Sri Kanthan and his team of 52 members who are IT pros, employees of railways and banking sector. 

They are the Sri Vaishnavas hailing from Sri Rangam of Tamilnadu who are prominently seen during every annual Brahmotsavam at Tiruchanoor carrying the mighty vahanams on their shoulders with the Universal Mother sitting atop them.

These ardent Sri Vainavaites have been rendering their services as Vahanam bearers from the past 32 years. 

Each vehicle has 4 poles 28 feet long made of reeds, two cross bars made of sticks, umbrella boards, two priests and two others for carrying umbrellas, all of which together make each vehicle weigh more than two and a half tons.  

These Vahanam bearers show their sense of devotion by carrying the weight for about three hours during each Vahana Seva both in the morning and in the evening.  

They also provide similar service at Sri Ranganatha Swamy temple in Sri Rangam.  

When they carry a vehicle, they follow four different modes of walking to impress the devotees with spiritual ecstasy. 

During Tiruchanoor Brahmotsavam every year, all of them apply leave from their respective jobs and enjoy the celestial bliss in the abode of Sri Padmavathi Devi.
