On, 13 April, 2014, Vijaya Varusha Sravanam; was the fourth day of NamPerumal’s Chitra Ther Tirunal. In the Evening at 6.00p.m. NamPerumal left Arya Vysa Asthana Mandapam (near Kollida Karai) on Garuda vahanam.Devotees gathered in large numbers along the route to have darshan of Perumal on the golden Garuda vahanam. Near Poundrikapuram Ashramam crossing on Melur road Perumal came at about 7.00 p.m. The crowds kept swelling and everyone was worried if they would be able to see Perumal and Garudan. As the two torches were sighted at a distance the crowd grew impatient and the melodious notes of the nadhaswaram soothened their nerves. NamPerumal could be sighted at a distance with the golden umbrella above .. As the procession moved Garudabhaghavan’s tilted Tirumukhamandalam oozing satvikness was spotted,then the golden wings and outstretched palms and the white silken dhothi with a broad green border.
The procession moved along North,East and South Chitra streets and entered inside Ranga Ranga gopuram and after Tiruvehndikaapu goes to vahana mandapam and to Kanadi arai by 9.30p.m. Lot of Srivaishnavas took part in the Arulicheyal and Veda Parayana goshti.
