| 2014 Brahmotsavam Festival At Sri Lakshmi Temple |
Press Release
05/21/2014
Thursday May 29 to Sunday June 08, 2014
Brahmotsavam is one of the most important celebrations for Sri Venkateswara. The origin of this festival is traced to Lord Brahma, who first conducted it to worship Sri Venkateswara (Balaji) at Tirupati, on the banks of the holy river Pushkarini, as a way of giving thanks for the Lord’s protection of mankind. Hence this festival is called Brahmotsavam, which means Brahma’s utsavam (festival). Special worship of other Temple deities is also done during this festival. Many temples celebrate Brahmotsavam during the anniversary of their original! consecration (Kumbhabishekam), which for Sri Lakshmi Temple was during May 22-27 in 1990.
We request devotees to sponsor Brahmotsavam events and partake of the blessings of Sri Venkateswara during this most auspicious festival.
