Thiruvallikkeni Theppothsavam - Day 3 - Sri Parthasarathi

Today 13th March 2013  is the third day of Theppothsavam – the first three days are dedicated to Sri Parthasarathi. 

Today being the Third day, Sri Parthasarathi had purappadu to the Theppam in the morning itself and had Thirumanjanam inside the theppam.  Here is a photo taken in the morning purappadu [courtesy : Thirumazhisai Kannan]

On Every day of the Uthsavam, it is different alankaram [sarrupadi] and today Sri Parthasarathi dazzled adorning  a kireedam called ‘Sigathadai’.  It is a wonderful Crown where  reams of jasmine flower are tightly rolled and  closed with ‘pure white silk’.  Sri Parthasarathi wearing such Kireedam as worn by Kings bestowed darshan as the Emperor.

Here are some photos taken by me  during the evening periya mada veethi purappadu.
