It
is arranged in the inner part of the temple and so all cannot avail. Nor the
space is adequate enough to accommodate. Hence, the wise administration is
conferring this mahadbhagya, making admission by tickets, sold at the Vijaya
Bank counters. The charge per head is hundred and twenty rupees. lf availed, one
can vociferously say that it is worth millions, for the ticket holder can stay,
at least a minimum of 10 minutes in front of the swinging vigrah of Parabrahman
and feast his eyes with that Divyamangalarupa Srinivasa,while the ears filled
with the devotion-soaked songs of Annamacharya, efficiently rendered by his
pious descendant. The time of this seva is in the night, mostly after 10 p.m.,
but it undergoes changes depending upon the number of bhaktas awaiting in the
queue complex halls. Time, may
change, but not the seva, as Bhagavan has to enjoy at least a few hours of
sleep. Ironical it may appear that on festival days, Bhagawan is awakened after
a few minutes of sleep only. Heavy and uncontrollable rush impel such exigency.
Would that Karunasagara withhold such boon? Unmindful of exertion, He allows
Suprabhatam ritual to take its normal course, Bhagawan is Bhagawan, He readily
extends that fortune to the desiring devout bhakats sans grumble. So, at
Tirumala, the Bhooloka Paramapada, the twin Suprabhatam and Ekantaseva upacharas
- ritualistic sevas are being offered every day with such devotional ardour that
they are second to none but to themselves. just as day follows night, every
Suprabhatam consummates with Ekantaseva. This cycle is going on uninterrupted
since its inception.
