The third
day of Brahmothsavam is of special significance ~ it is Garuda Vahanam
for Perumal. Garuda is depicted as having the golden body of a strong
person, has a white face, wings, prominent beak, wears a crown – massive,
strong – and more than anything else – ever devoted to Sriman Narayanan, carrying Him on his
shoulders all the time. His devotion and being close to Emperuman all the time
– Garuda, is admired as ‘Periya Thiruvadi’.
Perumal has purappadu in Garuda Sevai on other
occasions with Masi Magam, Gajendra Moksham,
Panguni Uthram being special. Today
browsing my archives for other reasons, found these 2 photos – found them to be
impressive and hence posting here.
