Source: Heidelberg: Glory of the Tiruvanantapuram Padmanabhasvami TempleUtsavapraśaṃsā (उत्सवप्रशंसा) is the sixth chapter of the Syānandūrapuravarṇana-prabandha by Svāti-Tirunāḷ (1813-1846) (one of the rulers of Travancore) which deals with the different activities of the Thiruvananthapuram Temple, including ceremonies and festivals.—In the sixth chapter, Utsavapraśaṃsā, there is a detailed account of the annual festival with all its aspects, which even includes the daily procession and the specifics of the vāhanas (vehicles) that are used to carry the deity: siṃhavāhana (first day), anantavāhana (second day), kamalavāhana (third day), āndolikā (fourth and seventh day), indravāhana (sixth day) and garuḍavāhana (eight, ninth and tenth day).
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
