Events @ Govindarajapuram temple - 30-04-2010

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare

Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare.

The customary abhishekam and Deeparadhanai was performed in the morning.
The evening saw the Lord Varadaraja Perumal mounted on his Periya Thiruvadi( Garuda vahanam). The lord mounts on the Garuda Vaahanam for Shishta Paripalanam. When Gajendra was caught on the Jaws of the crocodile, lord rushed on the Garuda Vaahanam to deliver him from the cycle of birth and death and to grant Moksha.
It is said that even the Sankhu and Chakra were late to arrive at the spot of Gajendramoksham, since the Lord rushed at such a speed when his devotee was in distress. The Alankaram for the day was eye catching and one would not take his eye of the Utsavar. The grama pradakshinam was not performed due to the arrival of Indra and Varuna in the form of Thunderous Rain.

Om Namo Bhagavathe Vaasudevaya
