With
the blessings of our Guruji “Kayilai Gnanaguru” Dr. Sri Muralidhara Swamigal,

Jayanthi Festival Day 15.08.2018 Wednesday in the account of Garuda Panchami by

The
Garuda Jayanti Festival (Garuda Panchami) also called as Naga Panchami that
occurs on the fifth lunar day in Aadi Masam. On this day Lord Garuda is
worshipped along with Nagadevatha. Devotees believe this day to be Garuda
Jayanthi the day on which Garuda was born. On this day special Garuda Homam,
Honey Abishekam, Archana celebrations are held at the sacred centre, Sri
Danvantri Arogya Peedam, Walajapet,Vellore District.
Said
to be an embodiment of Vedas (Veda Swaroopi) Garuda is prominently eulogized in
Puranas for his knowledge, strength and power. With the head and wings of an
Eagle, with a strong nose and body of a human, Garuda is regarded as the King
of birds (Pakshiraja). We find his reference in several Puranas.
Lord
Garuda was born to Kashyapa Prajapathi and his wife Vinatha. Anoora the
Rathasaarathi (charioteer) of Surya the Sun God is his brother. Serpents are
his Gnathis (step brothers) born to Kadhru another wife of Sage Kashyapa and
sister of Vinatha.
Garuda
stands for the majestic Eagle, soaring high in the air, sharp and agile. The
mighty bird, Garuda is also known by other names viz. Garuthmantha, Vynatheya,
Suparna, Naagaanthaka, Pakshiraja and Vinathasutha.
Garuda
is the Divine Vehicle or Vaahana (chief mount) of Lord Vishnu carrying him on
his shoulders and thus Lord Vishnu is called as Garudavahana. An ardent devotee
of Lord Vishnu, Garuda always resides in Sri Vaikunta engaged in eternal
service to Lord SriManNarayana.
Panchamukha
Aanjaneya Swamy (five headed Hanuman) is depicted as having Garuda as one of
the five faces facing west.
The
Garuda Homam is the Yagam dedicated to Lord Garuda who is also known as Shri
Garudar and Garuda Bhagwan. Lord Garuda is the vahana (vehicle) of Lord Vishnu.
The Garuda (brahminy kite or eagle) is also the emblem on the flag of Lord
Vishnu.

Ashta
Naga Garudar at Danvantri Peedam:
Garuda
is the Pakshi Raja, the king of birds. Garuda is the vehicle of Lord Vishnu and
also that of Lord Vaasavi Kannika Parameshwari Garuda Danvantri. He stands
guard at the entrance to the main deity. The Ashta Naga Garuda has been
installed at the entrance and is believed to provide relief from snake poisons,
besides other poisons as well. Being a vehicle himself, Garuda is believed to
protect one from accidents. Symbolically, the question to introspect on is
whether the devotee has released the undermining poisons of the mind before his
audience with Lord Danvantri. The Garudan here is an Ashta Naga Garudar, one
with eight snakes, a smiling face and a rather fine beak.
