Tirunama Dharana and Traditional Dress

Vijayawada, 7 July 2017: The PWD grounds in Vijayawada, which is hosting the religious event Sri Venkateswara Vaibhavotsavams set an example of Sanatana Hindu Dharma, with devotees voluntarily taking part in all the rituals in traditional attire wearing Tirunamam.

Tirunamam signifies the white clay found much below the crust of the earth and infact this is used as the powder to wear a flame shaped mark. This namam is applied in such a way that it starts from the point in between the eyebrows and goes up straight till the top edge of the forehead and gives the shape of a flame. 

The flame shaped namam signifies the Atman or Atma Jyothi which is nothing but represents the sacred name of the God.

All devotees irrespective of ages, genders have been taking part in these rituals following the Hindu Dharma which remained as a special attraction.
