“Celebration of Ugadi Asthanam at Tirumala Temple”

Vedic scholars conducted a traditional ‘panchanga sravanam’ ceremony in celebration of the auspicious ‘Sri Parabhavanama’ Telugu New Year.

The ‘panchanga sravanam’ involves the recitation and interpretation of the Panchangam, a Hindu calendar that provides essential details about the lunar cycles, festivals, and astrological predictions for the year ahead. This ritual is significant for many Telugu-speaking communities, as it marks the beginning of a new year and is considered a time for renewal and reflection.

The ‘Sri Parabhavanama’ year, according to the traditional lunar calendar, holds a special place in the cultural and religious practices of the Telugu population. Observances include various cultural and religious activities aimed at welcoming the new year with optimism and reverence.

Events often take place in temples and community centers, encouraging participation among families and individuals who seek blessings for prosperity, health, and well-being in the year ahead.
