Today
16th June 2013 marks the birth of Tamil month ‘Aani’…. Aani is
important as in Thiruvallikkeni Divyadesam, Thelliya
Singar Brahmothsavam takes place in this month.
This year, the Uthsavam starts on Tuesday, 18th June [17th
is Angurarpanam]; On 20th June morning would be Garuda Sevai; 23rd Evening is Yanai vahanam and
on 24th morning would be Thiruther.
Besides
such important Uthsavams, there are many festivities in Thiruvallikkeni and on ‘Pancha
parvam’ ~ Tamil Month starting, Pournami, Amavasyai, Ekadasi (2) days, there
would be purappadu of Sri Parthasarathi.
Today
evening Sri Parthasarathi with his consorts [Ubaya Nachimar] had chinna mada
veethi purappadu. Everytime you have
the fortune of having darshan of Sri Parthasarathi, more would you start
adoring the Supreme God. Today, the
garlands were spectacular and the vasthram was invigorating.
Most beautiful flowers and ornament which
Emperors will wear were adorning the Lord and His consorts were adorning
specially made ornaments [Thiruvabaranam] submitted by a group of bakthas. It was ‘Thura’ on the crown; medallions
[pathakkam] of Chandra and Surya and on the forehead was the ‘Sira(s) Bhushanam’
– all glittering but could not match the beauty of our Glorious benevolent
Giver of all Boons… Lord Sri Parthasarathi.
Here are some photos of the purappadu and One could view the newly
submitted ornaments, which reportedly cost more than 12 lakhs.
Adiyen
Srinivasa dhasan.
