ANUSHTANA KULA UTSAVAM

Dear viewers,
Bhagavad Ramanuja ,while undergoing studies from Yadhava prakasar,was in trouble and Lord Varadaraja came with His concert Sri Perundeevi thayar and helped him to safely return to kanchi.At that time sri thayar wanted to have some water due to thrist ,Ramanuja went to bring water,but they disppaered while he return.
Later Ramanuja realised that Sri varada and thayar only came for his resque ,he started the service of bringing Theertham to His poojas daily from the SALAKINARU the well from which he was about to give water originally to them.
Even today the theertham for pooja is being brought from that well only which is about 5 k.m from the temple.The utsavam called ANUSHTANA KULA Utsavam is being celebrated every year,on that day Perumal is going there along with Ramanuja and poojas performed both of them.
You can also enjoy the utsavam with the photos enclosed.
