Sparsha Darshan at Srisailam only at night on Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays
Executive Officer M. Srinivasa Rao said the change had been made for the convenience of general devotees; dignitaries have been asked to send recommendation letters at least two days before their visit
The Srisailam temple has altered the Sparsha Darshan protocol for devotees, according to Executive Officer M. Srinivasa Rao. This modification aims to enhance the convenience for general visitors. Sparsha Darshan, a special darshan where devotees can touch the deity, will now be offered only during specific night-time slots on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays.
During these nights, devotees will have their darshan without prior appointment, unlike the regular daytime schedule. However, on the remaining days of the week, Tuesday through Friday, the temple will maintain its existing three times daily darshan schedule. An exception to this pattern will occur in the month of Sravana, where Sparsha Darshan will not be available during morning and afternoon hours on Fridays, mirroring the new schedule.
The temple administration has urged visitors to provide their visit details at least two days prior to their arrival. Additionally, dignitaries are requested to submit recommendation letters for accommodation and darshan, preferably on official letterheads, to protocol@srisailadevasthanam.org or via WhatsApp at 9160016215.
