Meaning
How can one describe the occasion of Lord Pankajakshas procession on the Ananta Vahana?
The very glimpse of this enchanting scene delights the heart of pious people, who prostrate unto hist lotus-like feet shedding tears of joy.
Groups of devoted attendants respectfully serve him with a shining bright white royal umbrella and flywisk - Chatra and Camara.
At the same time, cool moonlight dispels despair and fills everyone's heart with happiness and delight.
Adorned with the eye-catching yellow robe, he shines like the Anjana mountain brightened by the early morning sunrays.
Everyone, with reverence and respect, is chanting Oh Padmanabha! Protect and bless us.
