Why Lord Vishnu Is Still in Debt at Tirupati & Why Devotees Are Paying It

Tirupati is not just a place of worship. For millions, it feels like a living relationship. People do not arrive only with prayers. They arrive with a sense of responsibility, belief, and quiet participation in a promise that, according to tradition, began in Kaliyuga and is still unfolding.
