Sri Venkateswara Heritage Preservation Trust

Our Temples symbolize India’s hallowed culture and Sanathana Dharma. Temples, which are the repositories of sculpture, paintings, music literature, dance and other art forms, are built for the prosperity and wellbeing of all people. According to Sastras, God manifests Himself in the images and fulfils the desires of the devotees on account of the spiritual penance of the great sages who consecrated the deities in the temples and the regular rituals performed there and due to the enchanting beauty of the idols, which conform to the Silpa Agamas. It is the bounden duty and responsibility of every Indian to preserve these temples, which are the centers of vedic culture, to renovate any dilapidated portion of the temples or rebuild them. It may be the Vimana or Prakara, Balipeetha or Dwajasthambha or it may be even the main idol. It is said natural disasters like flood and drought may occur not only in the villages where such ruined temples are located but also in the entire country.

Many acharyas have expressed their displeasure over raising new temples indiscriminately and stressed the need for preserving the ancient temples, consecrated by the great sages. There may be temple like edifices, which reflect the glory of vedic culture and religion or places of archeological interest.

It is an uphill task for individuals alone to undertake their preservation and renovation. With a view to accomplish this lofty aim, Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams has launched ‘Sri Venkateswara Heritage Preservation Trust’.

‘Karta Karayite chaiva prerakas syonu modaka’ which means one who organizes or executive a noble task, encourages, approves and derives pleasure from it, enjoys all fruits of such a meritorious act.

We earnestly appeal to all philanthropists to contribute generously to ‘Sri Venkateswara Heritage Preservation Trust and participate in this sacred endeavor. There is need for renovating dilapidated temples in every village and in every town for universal welfare. The donors can contribute any amount towards this scheme.

Food Facilities at Tirumala

Annadanam Samam Danam Trilokeshu Na Vidhathe

This famous from Vedas, means Annadanam(offering food) is supreme and incomparable to any charity. Food is the basic requirement for all humans. Thus according to Vedas, the one who does annadanam to devotees, attains heaven (Punya Loka) in this Universe (Brahmanda) itself. In this whole universe, the creation and its progression depends on food. Hence giving food to the devotees is more than attaining heaven.

Gaja turaga Sahasram Gokulam koti danam
Kanaka Rajatha patram Methini sagarantham
Upaya kula vishuttam Koti kanya pradanam
Nahi nahi bahu danam Annadanam samanam

Donating 1000 elephants & horses, donating 10 million cows, donating any number of vessels of silver and gold, donating the entire land till sea, offering the entire services of the clan, helping in the marriage of 10 million women, all this is never ever equal to Annadanam-feeding the hungry and needy.

The temple administration of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams being the custodian of world famous temple of Lord Venakteswara strongly believes that "Service to Humanity is Service to Divinity". It took up the noble task of feeding millions and millions of pilgrims who throng the temple of Tirumala across the world, every day on free of cost.

On an average, in a year not less than two crore pilgrims are being served with free food, beverages, snacks etc. in the name of 'Annaprasadams' in Matrusri Tarigonda Vengamamba Annaprasadam Complex, waiting queue lines and compartments in VQC-I & II, Foot path routes in Tirumala and also in Tirupati and Tiruchanur.
