Sannidhi :&nbsp;The temple&#39;s main deity in the Garba Gruham is SriVenkatachalapathyPerumal. The sanctum sanctorum houses the idols of Alamelu Mangai Thayar and Padmasini Thayar. There are also shrines for the deities Navaneetha&nbsp;Krishnar&nbsp;(Santhana Gopalan), Peria Thiruvadi, and&nbsp;Garudar.

Desikar was born under the constellation of Sravana in the month of Purattasi of Vibhava year as per the Tamil Almanac. [September - October 1269 AD]. Every year in the month of Purattasi Brahmotsavam is conducted here. The festival starts from 10 days before the Thiruvonam day(Desikar Thirunakshatram). In these days, the Special Abhishekams also done for All Moolavar &amp; Utsavar deities. And in the Evening Vedam and Divya Prabhanda Parayanam conducted here.

On these days Perumal goes through the Maada Veethi (this ritual is called as the &quot;perumal purapadu&quot;). The festival ends with Theertha Vaari for Venkatachalapathy Perumal &amp; Vedanta Desikar.

An attractive feature of the festival is the Garuda Vahanam, where the main deity placed on the idol of Garuda is taken out in procession on a richly decorated palanquin that resembles the one on which Lord Vishnu is taken out during the Theerthavari at the Padmanabhaswamy temple. The Garuda Vahanam is taken out on all the Saturdays of the Purattasi month.

In Maargazhi, the important festival of this month is the recital of Thiruppavai. The poems were composed by &quot;AndaaL&quot; an important devotee of Perumal. Next to this comes the Vaikunda ekadasi festival in which perumal used to be seen in Sayana alangaram (Like in Thirup paaRkadal)
