Goddess Takes Trivikrama Avatara on Surya Prabha Vahanam

TIruchanoor, 10 Dec. 18: On the bright sunny day on seventh day morning on Monday, Sri Padmavathi Devi donned Trivikrama Avatara to bless Her devotees on elegant Surya Prabha Vahanam during the ongoing brahmotsavams at Tiruchanoor. 

This is one of the main avatars of Lord Vishnu. In Trivikrama avatar Mahavishnu measured the entire universe in three footsteps. Vishnu took the giant form of Trivikraman during the Vamana avatara of his Dasavataras.

As Vishnu conquered the three worlds with his 3 foot setps - earth with his first step, heavens with the second and the underworld with third - he got the name Trivikrama.

Bhagavata Purana states that Mahavishnu took the form of Trivikrama to restore the authority of Indra over the heavens, as it had been taken by Bali chakravarthi. Trivikrama is also one of the 24 Keshava Namas of Lord Vishnu.

With this avatar, the goddess sends a signal that she is always there for the rescue of Her devotees. 

Tirupati JEO Sri P Bhaskar, CVSO Sri Gopinath Jatti, ACVSO Sri Sivakumar Reddy,Dy.EO Smt Jhansi Rani, AEO Sri Subramanyam, Suptd Sri Gopalakrishna Reddy and others were present.
