Kanchipuram Brahmotsavam starts today

The annual Kanchipuram Brahmotsavam for Sri Devaraja Perumal ("Kanchi Varadarajar") starts today. The third day of the Brahmotsavam (day after tomorrow) is the world-famous Garuda Seva. We have already discussed about the Live Telecast of Kanchipuram Garuda Seva here.

The Ahobilavalli team, who are pioneering to release a 250-page booklet on Sri Varadaraja Panchasath on the occasion of Garuda Seva. Sri Sadagopan Swami has also sent out a very beautiful picture of the Lord that would be going into one of the booklet. Stay tuned and keep visiting Ahobilavalli website.

At this instance, I could also fondly recall that about thirteen years back in 1995, just two days after Kanchipuram Garuda Seva, my Upanayam was scheduled and organized. There were sudden logistics and financial related problems interfering. With the grace of the Lord, these problems faded off and Upanayam (Brahmopadesam) went well.
