Jaya Vijaya – Gate Keepers Of Lord Venkateswara

Jaya Vijaya

Jaya Vijaya are Gate Keepers of Lord Vishnu. Jaya and vijaya are in the form of stone idols in all Vaishnava temples, but they appear in Tirumala in metal form. Vaikhanasulu speak of these idols as ‘Chanda Prachanda’. The speciality of these idols is that they symbolize and say that the devotees should enter the temple in perfect purity. It is not known surely when these ten feet tall metal idols were installed. Around these idols are arranged golden doors, one on either side. At present ‘Maha laghu darshanam’ is being implemented from this place only in Tirumala Main Temple.
