Guest guest Posted June 7, 2001 Report Posted June 7, 2001 Dear Bhagavatas: I have had the bhaghyam of witnessing Athi Varadar on the two previous occasions. I may not be able to witness the third one in 2017. But, I would strongly recommend youngsters to make it a point to visit Kanchi and have the memorable darsanam of Athi Varadar on that occasion.
