As per the Vaishnava tradition, TTD is organising the ten-day Vaikuntadwara Darshanam at Tirumala Srivari temple from December 23 to January 1 for ten days.
According to the Puranic legend, the importance attached to this unique Vaikuntadwara Darshanam is depicted in an interesting manner.
One day in Vaikunta-the sacred abode of the Universal Protector-Sri Maha Vishnu is considered equivalent to one year on earth.
The 12 hours of daytime in that one day is equal to six six-month period of Uttarayanam while the remaining 12 hours of night is equal to the remaining six months of Dakshinayanam on earth.
In that one day, the early morning 120 minutes in Vaikuntam is equal to 30 days of Dhanurmasa on earth and Sri Maha Vishnu gives Darshan to all the other deities, sages, devotees for 40 minutes during Brahma Muhurtam which is equal to the ten days of Vaikunthadwara Darshanam.
These days are being treated as most sacred in begetting the divine bliss. The devotees shall have the Vaikunthadwara Darshanam of Sri Venkateswara Swamy in Tirumala on any of these ten days.
As part of the auspicious Dhanurmasa tradition, Tiruppavai Pasura Pravachanams will begin at Tirumala Pontiff Sri Sri Sri Pedda jeeyarswamy mutt between 7am and 8am on December 17.
The SVBC channel will live telecast the Tiruppavai Pravachanams for the benefit of devotees across the world.
