Dear All,

 

we were blessed to attend Azvar Acharya Utsavam held at Sri Venkatesavara Lotus

Temple, Fairfax, Virginia, on Nov 1-2 weekend. we celebrated the avatara

Thirunakshatram (birth star) of Muthal Azvars (Poigai Azvar, Bhoothathazvar and

Pey Azvar) and Svami Pillailokacharyar and Svami ManavalaMamunikal. It was a

wonderful occasion, srivaishnavas from far and beyond in attendance.

SriU.Ve.Velukkudi Krishnan svami who is currently touring USA and London graced

the occasion by participating in the gosti and blessing us with two great

Upanyasams(Lectures).

 

we have compiled report and seperated it into three parts for easy readability.

Hope you enjoy it and looking forward for your participation in the utsavams

which are held at the temple in the coming months.
