by the

> tirumanjanam Swamy is taken to tiru-Kalyani where HE does His anushtanam.

The

> procession is enacted as though HE is coming to Melkote from Srirangam.

Goshti

Vankipuram

> Matam offer all the sheer and vastrams, and Swamy enters the main temple

to get

HE wore

> the clothes of Sri Kurataazwan (Kuresa) when HE left Srirangam.

>

> Let's bring Swamy deeper into our hearts on this special day. Since it

also is
