Srinivasa Mangapuram, 25 February 2014: On the 7th day of ongoing Annual Brahmotsavam at TTDs Sri Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy Temple in Srinivasa Mangapuram near Tirupati, the processional deity of Lord Kalyana Venkateswara Swamy is taken out in procession around four mada streets atop Suryaprabha Vahanam on Tuesday.

All devout offer prayers to Sun god every morning and the chanting of Gayatri Mantram triggers a divine energy among all. Surya rides the chariot driven by seven celestial horses. He spread light and health in the world and also removed away darkness which symbolized poverty, illiteracy and ignorance.

It is common belief the darshan of Surya Prabha Vahanam provided long life to all devotees and also relieved of all illness. On this occasion the people from all corners of the district bring their aged and sick parents to cure them with the sight of the Surya Prabha Vahanam procession.

TTD JEO Sri Pola Bhaskar, DyEO Sri Sridhar, AEO Sri Dhanajeyulu, Suptd Sri Dinakar Raju, Temple Staff and large number of devotees took part.
