As part of Venkateswara Vaibhavotsavams in Guntur, devotees had an experience of divine ‘Vishesha Puja’ of the processional deities of Lord Venkateswara and his consort Sri Devi, which was performed on the Police Parade Grounds premises on Monday.

The day began with ‘Suprabhatam’ at 6 a.m. and ended with ‘Ekanta Seva’ in the night.

‘Thomala Seva’

The TTD priests performed ‘Thomala Seva’ followed by ‘Archana,’.

TTD Dharma Pracharaka district unit president Tadisetty Murali Mohan, who was heading the arrangements, said that thousands of devotees have been experiencing the divine presence of Venkateswara Swamy.

On Sunday, the celestial marriage of Lord Malayappa Swamy and his two consorts lasted for about three hours. This ritual was carried out under the supervision of TTD Agama advisor and scholar Sundaravadanacharyulu.

Tirupati Joint Executive Officer P. Bhaskar, Hindu Dharma Prachara Parishad Special Officer Sriram Raghunath and Kalyanotsavam project Special Officer Ramachandra Reddy were also present.
