Tirupati: Vaikhanasa Agama Advisory meeting held at Annamayya Bhavan in Tirumala on Saturday.

The five-member Agama advisors comprising NAK Sunderavadanachrayulu, A Venugopala Deekshitulu, NV Mohanarangacharyulu, AT Anantasayana Deekshitulu and PSSR Jagannadhacharyulu took part in this meeting.

They thanked TTD EO Anil Kumar Singhal and Tirumala JEO KS Srinivasa Raju for successfully conducting Astabandhana Balalaya Mahasamprokshanam in the month of August 2018.

They made some suggestions to the TTD mandarins in the meeting which include publishing a book on the entire procedure and process in which Astabandhanam was performed in Srivari temple so that it will act as a guide to other temples in future.

Since Marichi Vimanarchana Kalpam, the guide to all rituals is in Devanagari script, it is to be translated into Telugu.

They suggested to construct Radha Mandapam in Tirumala and to conduct Astabandhana Balalaya Maha Samprokshanam of Varahaswamy temple from April 22 to April 27.

Bokkasam In-charge Gururaja Rao and Temple OSD P Seshadri were also present.
