VOLUNTARY SERVICE TO THE LORD OF SEVEN HILLS
The richness of Hindu Sanatana Dharma is that it preaches “Manava sevaye Madhava Seva” which means “Service to Humanity is Service to Divinity”.
The concept of Srivari Seva has been derived out of this noble thought by TTD and was introduced in the year 2000 with an aim to serve the pilgrims who throng Tirumala from far flung places to have darshan of Lord Venkateswara.
Began with just 200 Srivari Seveaks in the initial days, today the figure has crossed five lakh mark and Srivari Sevakulu have rendered impeccable services to their fellow piligrims during all these years.
Srivari Sevaks hail from the states of Telengana, Tamilnadu, Karnataka, Kerala, West Bengal, Maharashtra, Orissa, New Delhi, Chattisgarh, Jharkhand also apart from Andhra Pradesh. Even some NRIs also performed Srivari Seva as part of their fulfillment of their vow in the devotee service.
Srivari Seva forms an integral part of worship at Tirumala. The opinion of the Sevakulu is that “it not only enlivens our spiritual life and also prepares our body and soul to act as per the will of supreme Lord which is nothing but serving the fellow pilgrims with love and affection”.
