Dhanurmasa special pujas begin at Yadadri temple

Yadagirigutta: The month-long ‘Dhanurmasa’ special pujas from 4.20 am to 5.15 am daily to Lord Sri Lakshminarasimha Swamy on the temple hill kickstarted on Friday. Such pujas are an annual feature, during which women devotees participate in the temple ‘Dhanurmasa vratam’ after performing ‘Deeparadhana’ in their homes, as per Hindu tradition.

Such rituals, it is believed, will result in fulfillment of the wishes of the devotees. With this hope, women take up the ritual throughout the month, said the temple’s Chief Archaka Nallandigal Lakshmi Narasimha Charyulu, while speaking to The Hans India.
