Yoga Narayana rides on ferocious Simha vahanam

On the Third day morining of the ongoing annual Brahmotsavams on Saturday, Sri Malayappaswamy was taken out for a procession on Simha (Lion) vahanam.

The sacred Simha vahanam with the Lord riding on a Lion with a sitting posture of “Yoga Narayanamurthy” the icon of Gnana and Bhakti themes fascinated the scores of devotees who thronged Tirumala.
