Guest guest Posted December 24, 2006 Report Share Posted December 24, 2006 Dear Devotee friends : Jaya Guru Datta This is for your information to Sponcer for this important festival of Sri Datta Venkateshwara. 30th December is " Vaikunta Ekadasi " . One of the most important days in the calender of Vishnu Worship. Also it allways occurs in Dhanurmasa ... ( mid December to Mid January ) This month is auspicious for Lord Vishnu. It is very important to worship Him during this period. Only on this Vaikunta Ekadasi day the " Vaikunta Dwaram " ( the Door to heaven ) is opened. It is belived, those who goes thru this door will pave the way to go to heaven. This door will be specially decorated. Also as Sri Vishnu is 'Alankara pryaha ' we plan to deck Him & his place with Flowers. Being an Ekadasi, mass feeding of ' palahara ' ( Snacks in place of a meal ) to all devotees who come for Darshana will take place, all through the day. Hence, here is an oppurtunity for devotees to participate in the event & get the grace of Sri Swamiji & Sri Datta Venkateswara Swamy. The sevas you can perform are : 1) Alankara seva Rs 3K & above ( Entire temple & SDV will be decked in flowers ) 2) Prasada Seva Rs 1K & above ( Mass feeding of 'palahara ' to all devotees who come for Darshana will be served with this , all through the day. ) Cheque or DD can be sent Favouring : " D G B S - Venkateshwara Nidhi " Or DYC USA to Dr Prakasa Rao Awaiting to hear from you, with all details of your names & gotram & nakshatrams Sri Guru Datta Prakash & Gayathri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
