Tirupati Travelogue

Jai Balaji, Jai Venkateshwar, Govinda Govinda Govinda


Lord Balaji Idol is a beautiful art of Indian divinity. 


The shadow of the Murthi falls on the wall in the sanctum, where there is no source of Light.The Idols change colors once in every one and a half hour,once in fourteen days.

It is said that the idol of Lord Balaji always maintains a temperature of around 110*F situated at the Thirumala Hills at a height of about 3000 feet.The holy lamp devoted to Lord Balaji is said to be purging evil for time unknown... glaring at the same intensity at the glistening Idol 


The idol of Lord Balaji of Tirupati has a temperature of 110 F early in the Morning around 4.30 am when the Abhishekam is perfomed and He actually Perspire!!




The lord is decorated with Pancha in the down part and saree in the upper part.
On an average 50,000 to 100,000 devotees visit the Tirupati Balaji ....with all their hopes,aspirations,celebrations.
