**TIRUPATI, March 30, 2025** – The annual Brahmotsavam festival at the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) temple in Tirupati reached its fourth day with a spectacular procession of Lord Kodandarama. The deity, accompanied by Sita Devi and Lakshmana, was carried on the ornate “Kalpavriksha Vahanam” (wish-fulfilling tree vehicle) in the morning and the “Sarvabhoopala Vahanam” (universe vehicle) in the evening. Thousands of devotees participated in both processions.
The Kalpavriksha, a mythical wish-fulfilling tree, symbolizes the divine blessings sought by worshippers. The Sarvabhoopala Vahanam, shaped like a canopy, represents the universe, signifying Lord Kodandarama’s omnipresence and dominion. The processions were a highlight of the festival, drawing large crowds eager to witness the religious spectacle.
