Draft:Sree Ranganatha Swamy Devasthanam and Charitable Trust Yapral

Sree Ranganatha Swamy Devasthanam and Charitable Trust Yapral (76/ IV/ 2024) Website Sree Ranganatha Swamy Devastham, Yapral is a 200-year-old temple which was established by the Late Sri Vadamahamalai Narayana Swamy. When the temple was getting into a dilapidated condition, a few devout people came together and formed a Trust and the reconstruction of the temple was undertaken. The temple was dismantled from the ground level and was re-constructed and the consecration and Kumbabhishekam were performed by His Holiness Sree Sree Jayendra Saraswathi of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam in the year 1986. The main Deity Vigraham of Lord Sree Ranganatha Swamy was donated by Sri Rangadas with the blessings of Sree Sree Chandrasekar of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam.

The main Deity Sree Ranaganatha Swamy is accompanied by Goddess Sree Laxmi and Goddess Sree Andal. Gradually, there were other installations in the temple premises of Lord Hanuman, Lord Shiva, and Lord Ganesha, Navagraha temple, and Nagadevata.

Recently, an 11-foot Idol of Lord Sree Venkateshwara has been installed in the main temple hall where Kalyanotsavamas and other pujas and homams are being held. The temple is adorned with Statues of 10 Avatharas, Ashtha Lakshmi, and the temple premises are now adorned with a huge Hanuman statue 30 feet height and Surya Bhagavan

The temple has become a place of worship and regular pujas being held and public celebrations marking important events like, Brahmotsavams, Sree Andal Kalyanam, Sree Rama Navami, Ganesh Utsavam, Durga Navaratris, Sree Krishna Janmashtami, Shivrati, Vaikunta Ekadashi and many more all through the year.

Regular Annadanam (Poor Feeding) is being held every Saturday where approximately 500 people from nearby communities take lunch Prasadam. We serve the local poor and needy population with Annadanam and distribution of essential groceries irrespective of caste or religion

A Development Proposal has been attached for your kind consideration. We sincerely pray to the Lord to bestow his blessings for all.
