New:**********
Dear Bhakthas -
Thank you for your overwhelming support for the cause of upholding Dharma & the Service to Lord Sri Neelavarna Perumal.
Some of the recent contributions from devotees are as below:
A devotee has donated the Mahalakshmi Utsava Vigraham for Sri Vedavalli Thayar - the newly consecrated Sri Vedavalli Thayar utsava moorthy has been done prathista inside the sanctom sanctorum of the main temple.
Another devotee has donated the Sri Sudharsana Sri Yoga Narasimha Utsava moorthy for the Sri Sudharsana Sannidhi. This vigraha is also duly consecrated and done prathistai inside the main sanctom sanctorum.
Recently, many devotees have contributed towards getting the Sri Nammalwar utsava Vigraham, the Vigraham is planned to be consecrated on the Vikruthi Varusha Vaikaasi Maasa Visaaka Nakshatra ( Janma Nakshatra - Thirunakshatram ) of Sri Nammalwar - all devotees are requested to attend the Vishwaksena Homam and Thirvaimozhi Ghosti and get the paripoorna krupai of Sri Sadagopan ( Nammalwar) - who is the bestower of all knowledge from Sri Hayagreeva swamy.
A devotee from Gulf has donated the following to Sri Neelavarna Perumal temple - Nanmangalam.
Sri Neelavarna perumal is adorned with new silver kavacham for his katihastham.
Sri Vedavalli thayar is adorned with new silver kireetam and karna patram with American diamond.
Another devotee has got his wishes fulfilled and has donated the new Garuda Vahanam to the temple.
Yet another devotee from Tambaram has got his wishes fulfilled and helped take the entire re-wiring and fitting of lamps and new fans in the temple.
A devotee has contributed the inverter in the temple and now devotees are able to have dharshan even if the current fails - thanks for the wonderful kaimkaryam of the devoted person.
Many devotees have contributed towards the installation of the Air Conditioner in the Artha Mandapam outside the Garbha Graham - this has helped both Perumal as well as the sevarthis ( devotees ) to have a cool time inside the artha mandapam. thank you very much for all the devotees who contributed to this great cause.
Still pending kaimkaryam:
1) Thiru Thirai ( Screen with thiruman) for Sri Neelavarna Perumal and Sri Vedavalli thayar sannidhi. - approx. estimate Rs. 800 (for 2 screens combined)
2) The Paramapada Vaasal ( Swarga Vaasal ) is planned to be built in the temple primises for the Maargazhi Vaikunta Ekaadasi festivities - A very generous devotee has already contributed Rs.1,00,000 towards this divine cause - but still a lot of funds is required to build this important piece of temple structure for the event of Paramapada Vaasal opening on Vaikunta Ekadasi day - Contributing to this divine cause is a step towards opening our hearts to our dear lord Sri Neelavarna Perumal and inviting him to live within our heart. Our Lord is sure to usher us the heavenly abode and luxuries of living in his bliss at Paramapadam by opening the paramapada Vaasal. The temple trust requests all devotees to contribute towards this good cause.


 Devotees contribution is the main driving force and we pray that devotees get the blessing of Sri Vedavalli Sri Sridevi Sri Bhudevi samedha Sri Neelavarna Perumal & Sri Swamy Nammalwar by joining this divine cause.

The temple is in very immediate need of funds for the Thirumadappali Patrams and daily pujas to be carried out and also to take care of the temple Archakas and Temple cook.
The Sri Neelavarna Bhaktha Jana Kainkarya Sabha (Regd) has started a fixed deposit for this cause and is planned to target an amount of Rs. 5,00,000/- in the account so that the interest can be channeled out for every month activities of the temple.
The sabha very dearly requests all philanthropist and devoted public to contribute in achieving the target. Please contact the sabha authorities (contact numbers given below) for helping for this divine cause.
