About Saptaaha

Welcome to Sri Raghavendra Saptaaha Mahotsavam

Sri Raghavendra Swamiji’s incarnation in Kaliyuga can be considered a manifestation for the upliftment of the ‘Sajjanas’. Sri Rayaru’s Pontification Day to the Vedanta Saamraajya and his Birthday fall in the same week during the ‘Phalguna Maasa’. This is celebrated as the “Sri Raghavendra Saptaaha Mahotsavam”.

Starting from 1994, we have been celebrating Sri Raghavendra Saptaaha for the past 33 years at various places across the country. This time around, we are celebrating the 34th Sri Raghavendra Saptaaha in Siruguppa, Karnataka.
