Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam is constructing a shrine for Lord Venkateswara in the campus of Vivekananda Kendra, Kanyakumari.
If everything goes according to plans, this temple which will come up in Kanyakumari on the land donated by Vivekananda Kendra will be a “twin” of the famous temple in Tirupati, albeit smaller in size, replicating all the paraphernalia and the rituals followed in Tirupati.
Mothers, with a smiling wrinkled face, celebrated the mothers’ Day in a fabulous way. The celebration started at 1.00 pm with various competitions like Rangoli, cooking, Chanting Gita Slokas, making things from waste materials, Musical chair, shot put and blouring ballooms, in which the mothers took part very enthusiastically.
“Ramayan Darshan” – a pictorial Exhibition on the Ramayan, our National Epic, is coming up at Vivekanandapuram, Kanyakumari – the town where Swami Vivekananda meditated. The Exhibition through its 108 panels will depict important episodes from Ramayana and will have a 27 feet tall statue of Hanuman in front.
