vina venkatesam na nanatho na nathah

sada venkatesam smarami smarami,

hare! venkatesa! prasida prasida

priyam venkatesa! prayaccha prayaccha.

There is no savior other than Venkatesa. I ever pray to (or remember) Venkatesa. O Hari Venkatesa! be pleased; grant (us) favors.

Benefits of Venkateshwara Brahmotsavam

Offering worship during Venkateshwara Brahmotsavam brings blessings from both Venkateshwara and Devi. Venkateshwara is revered for his power to remove obstacles, grant prosperity, and bestow spiritual growth. Devi symbolizes the triumph of good over evil, offering strength, protection, and courage. Prayers offered during this powerful time are amplified. Devotees seek blessings for personal and familial growth, spiritual progress, and the removal of obstacles in life. Offering devotion and surrender to the divine during such an auspicious period can lead to the fulfillment of heartfelt wishes.

Brahmotsavam and Mahanavaratri are celebrated with great devotion, fostering a sense of unity, faith, and cultural harmony. Mahanavaratri invokes the transformative power of the Goddess, helping devotees conquer their inner demons and weaknesses. Coupled with the blessings of Lord Venkateshwara, this period is ideal for focusing on self-discipline, devotion, and spiritual growth, leading to a more fulfilled and meaningful life. Furthermore, participating in these festivals strengthens community bonds and serves as a reminder of the power of collective prayer and devotion. 

In a larger spiritual context, worship during this time also leads to moksha (liberation) by receiving the grace of both Lord Venkateshwara, who is the protector of the universe, and Goddess Devi, the divine mother and remover of ignorance.
