TRIPUNDRAM SYMBOLS

" Our next halt is at the gigantic metal frame, beating on its top the most worshipful and infinitely sacrosanct vaishnava symbol Tripundram fixed betwixt Sudarsan Chakra and Panchaj anya sankh. It is such a soul-lifting sight that every staunch Vaishnate raises his hands in deep veneration at its sight. Some even go to the extent of offering prostration before it. There is a fine mandap Infront of it installed with big size Ramalakshman  and Sita Vigrahas. The lush green lawns interspread with colourful flower plants along the criss-crossed foot paths detain longer, feasting our eyes with their loveliness. Move on!

Let us sit for a while drinking in with eyes the sanctity exuding from it and the envious echoing the devotion soaked hymns and songs broadcasting from the temple. The final visit is the .Temple Art Museum. It is a lovely big building bearing resemblance to a temple with towers and colonnade in the fore. It is housing countless holy scriptures and colourful photographs. Class and mass visit this. Another enchanting spot worthy of indispensable visitation is the Gogarbham gardens situated within a walkable distance from the temple. Grand mandaps surrounded by multicolored flower plants and vast lawns lure the visitors. They rejuvenate the tired bodies and heavily charged souls. For those who stay for days, it is an excellent park for spending evenings.

" Well it is already 8'o clock, better take supper and relax for few hours before going for Suprabhat darsan. I will instruct Suresh for sending barber to your guest house. Look! Miss Benarji, you have to wake up by 2 a.m. itself to take bath and go to Vaikuntam Queue Complex. From there alone the ticket holders for both Suprabhatam and Tomala Seva have to proceed. Our morning visit commences from the Varahaswamy temple and being quite short comparatively we returned in about 3 hours time.
