Alwarthirunagari Vaikasi Visakam Garuda Seva Photos (Part 2)

As said in the earlier post, here is the 2nd part of  Alwarthirunagari Garuda Seva photos.

The entire village and especially the streets around the temple wear a festive look, awaiting the Lords. A dance troupe which initially had only a few onlookers, immediately gathered the attention of the people around and within moments a huge crowd gathered around to see the wonderful performance.

Wonderful performance by a dance troupe had the people mesmersied.

For the Bhaktas; a vendor selling savouries

Finally its time for the Lord’s to come. The Lord’s led by Alwarthirunagari Adinathar Perumal come one by one to see their children. Seeing NavaThirupathi Perumals sitting majestically in their Garuda Vahanams is a sight of a lifetime.

An unforgettable sight, all the NavaThirupathi Perumals

Fireworks; just like creating the universe?

More Fireworks...

Behind all the Perumals was a bhajan ghosti singing songs on the Lords before them

Even Narasimha Swamy dances to the tunes of true Bhakthas..

I once again thank Sriman Narayana for blessing me with the opportunity to witness this wonderful spectacle. It is indeed a humbling feeling when all the Lords come out to see ordinary people like us and bless. People can e-mail me (RamanujaDasan@live.in) for High Res originals of these snaps.
