This
devotion pure and simple emerging from the soul of every Indian
establishes in unambiguous lucid diction that Sri Venkateswara, the
Lord of Seven Hills is the God of gods; God of all Worlds; God for
all times; God of all people, who comes to their rescue, regardless
of man-made distinctions, like region, religion, caste, creed, sex
and the like. And thereby declares covertly that the
Tirumala-Tirupathi is the surest refuge, safest haven, holiest
pilgrimage centre worthy of craving for an indispensable instant
visit to feasting the eyes with the eyeful darsan of that magnetic
six-foot-high-icon in standing posture, adorned with dazzling jewels
and colourful garlands from crown to feet with disc and conch in his
upper arms, while the lower left is on the knee signifying the
insignificant knee-depth of the Samsarasagara, if trusted, and the
lower right in the Varadahastha pose, assuring full and all-proof
protection, to anyone, if he voluntarily makes an unconditional
total surrender to that Highest HIM.
