Weighing place (Thulabharam)
Thulabharam / The balance is seen near the Tirumalaraya mandapam. In sanksrit the balance is called “Tula”. In olden days the kings used to perform “Tulapurushadanam”. The devotees pay money as they wished to offer when their diseases are cured, and are blessed with children. The money equivalent to their weight or to their children’s weight is weighed and submitted to swami. If needs be, the TTD will provide coins. The secret of Thulabhara is not mere submission of the coins. At the time of entry into the temple every devotee will have to judge for himself. The main purpose of temple entry is to maintain equanimity of mind. “Equanimity of mind is the Sun and Substance of all Vedas”, said Annamayya ‘Samabuddhe yandariki sarva vedasaramu’.

Hello,
For infant tulabharam, do I have to first take the ₹300 ticket and then go in queue, perform tulabharam and then join the ₹300 queue again?? Or if I perform tulabharam I don’t have to get any tickets? Please clarify.
For Infant and his / her parents entry is through supadham gate, you dont need to buy Rs. 300 tickets. Only father, mother and infant would be allowed. while entering main temple, on the left side of Dwajastambham you can find the Thulabaram counter, just deviate from your darshan line and get the thulabaram done and join the queue line back and have darshan.
Timings for infant entry is 12 PM to 6 PM.
I have to perform coconut tolabharan of my 11 yr old girl. Do I need to make booking or any procedure needed prior.
I also need spl darshan tickets, in NXT upcoming week probably after 10th April.
Kindly reply

Hi sir our family members are about to give two thulabaram to my 11month baby by this month
Is that all my family members (7Nos )are allowed to go through infant dharshan line
Is there any procedure to get my family members along with baby in infant dharshan line
Please let me know
Your family members cannot come in infant queue line. If everyone has to go together then options are like take any seva tickets like kalyanotsavam, unjal seva, arjitha bramhotsavam or sahasra deepalankara seva so that they will get supadham entry ( for infant darshan also it’s supadham entry). But those seva tickets are sold out till April end. You can plan for may. Or other options is everyone has to go in 300 special entry darshan queue line by purchasing tickets.
