Vannakkam:
I thought I would share that our ten day festival started last night. Each evening, except for Sunday mornings, we have homa, abhishekham, bhajan, vasantha mandapam deity parade, final aarti, and a meal prasadam. Last night went quickly and was over in 4 hours. It's a joyous time. A lot of people come every night. We have live thavil and nadeswaram musicians. They really add a lot to it. This year they are a pair from Trichy, and Tanjore respectively.
The temple is having a temple cart made for the kumbabhishekam in 2 years time. It's hard to believe the present temple is 10 years old this year.
Here is a link to a past festival date with lots of pictures of the parade. Scroll down to near the bottom.
