Sri Krishna Wears New Yagnopaveetam

On the auspicious occasion of Shravana Upakarma on Sunday, Sri Krishna Swamy was offered with new Yagnopaveetam.

Earlier, the deity was brought from the temple on a procession and was taken to Swamy Pushkarini opposite Sri Varaha Swamy temple and special Abhishekam was rendered.

Later, the priests amidst chanting of Vedic hymns offered new Yagnopaveetam (holy thread) and the deity was brought back to the Srivari temple. This holy event takes place every year on the occasion of Shravana Pournami between 6am and 7am.
