Later it is in this very holy place that Romaharshana (alternatively Lomaharshana), Vedavyasa’s disciple, narrated the Puranas to several Rishis. It is also the blessed place where Ugrasrava (Suta Gosvami), the son of Romaharsana, narrated the story of Shreemad Bhagavatam to several Rishis. The Balaji (Venkateswara) temple priests at Naimisharanya are conducting a 4 day festival at Naimisharanya, which includes Sri Sukta Homam, Deeparadhana, Maha-Abhishekam of Lord Venkateswara, Srinivasa Kalyanam, Vishnusahasranama Paath, Pavitra Mala Samarpan, etc from August 28th to 31st There is no fees and all are free to attend it.
