Brahmothsavam - day 9 Morning - Porvai Kalaithal
14th July 2014 is the 9th day of Sri
Azhagiya Singar Brahmothsavam – Theerthavari. In the morning Sri Azhagiya Singar had
purappadu in “Aaal mael pallakku”. I had posted about the symbolic search whence
Perumal Himself comes incognito, covered
with ‘sheets’ (போர்வைகள்).
Sripadham thangis carry the palanquin in a circular motion and with
every circling round, one porvai is removed; aarthi performed – immediately
after the uncovering of last sheet too - for a few seconds one can have darshan of Sri
Azhagiya Singar with no floral garlands – then many flowers adorn
Perumal.
This year, I had the fortune of darshan during ‘Porvai kalaithal’
and here are some photos taken during the function.
