The three-day annual Pavithrotsavams commenced on a spiritual note at the temple of Lord Venkateswara on Monday.
Special rituals were performed at the yagasala inside the main temple complex which was followed by Snapana Thirumanjanam to the processional deities of Lord Malayappa and his two divine consorts.
Immense significance is attached to the reparation festival wherein the priests seek forgiveness for all the omissions and commissions during the performance of daily rituals inside the temple.
