Jaya Panguni Avittam(18.3.2015) evening at 5.30p.m. pradosha tirumanjanam for utsavar Lakshminrisimhar took place at Sri Dasavathara sannidhi. Pradosham is special for Sri Nrisimhan and refers to the evening of Trayodasi. Sometimes pradosham comes on dwadashi evening itself and sometimes the next day. At Dasavathara sannidhi devotees throng with milk, curds, honey, raw coconut, turmeric, sandal powder, flowers for the tirumanjanam. Kalkandu powdered and mixed with dried ginger powder, cardamom and saffron is brought to the sannidhi along with lemon. Aradakar swami mixes it in water and adds lemon juice to offer tasty kalkandu panakam . Worshipping Sri Lakshminrisimha during pradosham removes drishti-dosham and by offering dravyams for tirumanjanam papams done knowingly or unknowingly are gone. Reciting of Mantrarajapada stotram and Kamasakiashtakam bestow peace of mind and foster bhakthi.These are some of the photos and video taken during the occasion…
