TIRUPATHI - SARVA SIDDHI VINAYAKAR AALAYAM

Lord Venkateswara although exercises unlimited and autocratic sway over the entire region, He has not monopolized devotion, nor does He look down upon the bhaktas worshipping other gods and goddesses. In Tirupathi and Tirumala too, there are many shrines of various sizes dedicated to Lord Siva, Sri Rama, Anjaneya, goddesses, like Ganagamma, Annapurneswari, Rajarajeswari, Kaliamma, and Vinayaka to mention only a few. Among such, there are nearly four big sized shrines built and maintained for the exclusive worship of Lord Vinayaka. All of them are modest in construction and simple in adornment. They are single celled mandirs. They are housed in busy parts of the town, like on the bank of the sacred Govindarajaswamy tank opposite his shrine, Chintakayala street. near the Panchamukha Anjaneyaswamy temple and at the cross roads of the newly built Padmavathy Kalyana Mandapam.

This Sarvasiddhi Vinayaka temple seems small, but its adorers are great in number, as evidenced by -huge' crowds overflowing the compound in mornings and evenings. As it is on the way to Alamelu Mangapurani, devout bhaktas alight at this shrine to offer prayers.
