Thiruvallikeni Sri Parthasarathy Temple Kolu

Just a few minutes back when I signed on I observed that my friends and co-devotees in Medavakkam Sri Srinivasa Perumal temple sent me a few snaps of the Kolu arranged in Thiruvallikeni Parthasarathy temple.  I would like to share the same over here:

 
A few posts back I have mentioned that if I am unable to visit Him, He makes it a point to meet me. Read this post again here.
 
Interestingly the day of Vijayadasami is significant to me. My grandmother’s sister who was living in Thiruvallikeni was having the annual privilege of offering Chakkara Pongal thaligai every Wednesday. After her period this got cut off. I really put in a lot of efforts to take back this schedule but for some reason this got procrastinated due to a lot of negative forces.
 
Whilst one sister of my grandmother was instrumental in me thinking to take over this schedule after her, the other youngest sister who resides in Adambakkam earned the pride of unduly inflating the costs quoting her willful influence in the temple and thus discouraging me. I don’t care about these jokers. But today when I went to the shopping store, I got a cute chocalate icecream which resembled like Chakkara Pongal. Interestingly I was thinking of making Chakkara Pongal today.
 
And just after coming back from the shopping when I signed on, Sri Parthasarathy greets me in my mailbox.
