Tirumala, Tirupathi is a very sacred pilgrimage for Hindu religion people. Tirumala temple is located at Tirupathi of Andhra Pradesh, India. Here the deity is Lord Venkateswara and here Hindus follow a tradition of offering their hair to the god. Although this kind of offering is practiced in other places also, it is very famous at Tirupathi. Most percentage of the pilgrims visiting this temple will offer their hair to the god by getting head shave in the premises of the temple. There is some mythological story also, associated with this tradition.
Even ladies who love to have long and flowing hair will be ready to shave their head at this temple. People generally vow to offer their hair to the god at the temple for fulfilling their wish. It is also said that once the devotee vowed to offer hair to the god and if he forgets or fails to do so, he or she will have to face negative effects. So, one should be careful while vowing and should not break the promise given to the god once he/she vows.
Nowadays many people are uploading the videos of head shave and haircuts at Tirumala, Tirupathi and are sharing it on internet. May be such videos will be helpful for few devotees who are a bit scared about getting head tonsured. At this temple, thousands of people will get their heads shave, so there is no need to get much worried about it.
Also, there are some exceptions for ladies who don't want to lose their long hair and look bald. There is also an option to give small portion of their hair (in 3 cuts) or just to offer a part of their long hair. Many ladies opt for either 3 cuts or 3 fists' length of hair.
Here are few videos which i have seen on YouTube regarding Tirumala Tirupathi braid cuts. In upcoming post i will share some head shave videos too.
