Snapana Beram
The Snapana Beram is also known as Ugra Srinivasa Murthy, Venkatatturaivar or Snapana Murthy. It is 25 inches high. The idols of Ugra Srinivasa Murthy along with Sri Devi and Bhu Devi are made of five precious metals. They were used for the utsavas in the past. This practice was dispensed with in the 14″ century as some untoward incidents occurred in one of the Brahmotsavas.
On Kaisika Dwadasi however, the procession of this deity is taken out from the temple of Tirumala early in the morning which ends much before the sunrise.
