The Divine Vision
Be Part of This Sacred Occasion
A mu:rthi is carved once. Pra:na is invoked once. For five days the ya:gasa:la: fires burn, 108 kalasas are sanctified with the Dva:dasa:kshari, and at the appointed muhu:rtha the eyes of Sri: Hanuma:n open for the first time — the largest Sanjeevani Hanuma:n in the United States, awakened by the hands of HH Sri: Tridandi Chinna Jeeyar Swa:mi:ji himself.
And Sri: Hanuma:n does not come home alone — the utsava mu:rthis of Sri: Bhu: Same:tha Ve:nkate:swara Swa:mi, the Si:tha-Ra:ma parivar, Sri: Maha:lakshmi and Sri: Bhagavad Ra:ma:nuja Swa:mi receive prathishtta in the same mahotsavam. Every family present becomes part of that living history. Every name registered, every kalasa sponsored, every plate of anna da:na served is woven into the mu:rthi's first moments — and into the blessings that flow from them for generations.
Also in this mahotsavam — Utsava Mu:rthi Prathishtta of
Sri: Bhu: Same:tha Sri: Ve:nkate:swara Swa:mi · Sri: Si:tha-Lakshmana-Hanumath Same:tha Sri: Ra:machandra Swa:mi · Sri: Maha:lakshmi · Sri: Bhagavad Ra:ma:nuja Swa:mi
“Service to humanity is the highest form of worship. When you feed the hungry, heal the sick, and educate the young — you serve God directly.”
