Chennai: A devotee family who hosted Kanchi Sankaracharyas in 1983 during their Tadipatri visit has carefully preserved photos of Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal and Sri Sankara Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal which were taken at that time.
The family has shared these photos during Sri Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal’s current visit there to mark the Peetarohanam day of the seers.
Sunku family said they were blessed to preserve the rare photographs. Kanchi Acharyas returned to Kanchipuram on 14 April, 1984 on completion of a long Pada Yatra. Enroute they covered Anantapur, Tadipatri, Cuddapah and Chittor Districts before entering Tamilnadu near Vellore.
During the current tour, Sri Vijayendra Saraswathi Swamigal is visiting Tadipatri and Anantapuram in Andhra Pradesh, Sandur, Hosapete, Gangavati and Raichur in Karnataka and Mahbubnagar and Hyderabad in Telangana.
