Origin & History

Source: Sri Venkatesa Suprabhatam corpus (recited daily at Tirumala); part of the traditional Suprabhatam–Stotram–Prapatti–Mangalasasanam sequence

Author: Traditional; the concluding verse honours Sri Manavala Mamunigal and the earlier acharyas (the Suprabhatam corpus is attributed to Prativadi Bhayankaram Annangaracharya/Anantacharya)

Period: Medieval (Sri Vaishnava tradition)

The Mangalasasanam forms the closing portion of the daily liturgy at the Tirumala temple of Lord Venkateswara. After the Lord is awakened with the Suprabhatam, praised with the Stotram, and surrendered to with the Prapatti, the worship concludes with this Mangalasasanam in which the devotee, brimming with love, wishes long auspiciousness upon the Lord and upon the lineage of acharyas who have ever sung His glory. The Sri Vaishnava idea of mangalasasanam — blessing the Lord out of pure affection rather than asking anything for oneself — is its heart.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does 'Mangalasasanam' mean?▼

Mangalasasanam means 'the invocation or proclamation of auspiciousness (mangalam)'. In the Sri Vaishnava tradition the devotee, out of overflowing love, wishes well-being and long auspiciousness upon the Lord Himself, just as one would bless a beloved. Each verse therefore ends with the word 'Mangalam'.

When is Venkateswara Mangalasasanam recited?▼

It is traditionally chanted at the very end of worship — after the puja, abhishekam or aarti — as a closing benediction. It is especially sung at Tirumala and in Venkateswara temples, on Saturdays, on Ekadashi, and during the Brahmotsavam festival.

Who is mentioned in the final verses of the hymn?▼

The thirteenth verse honours Sundarajamatru Muni (Manavala Mamunigal), the great Sri Vaishnava acharya, in whose heart the Lord dwells. The fourteenth verse offers auspiciousness to the Lord as worshipped by 'our acharyas' and all the earlier preceptors who were devoted to His mangalasasanam.

Is this the same as the Venkateswara Suprabhatam?▼

No. The Suprabhatam is the 'auspicious dawn' hymn used to wake the Lord in the morning, of which Mangalasasanam forms a concluding section in the full Suprabhatam collection. The Mangalasasanam can also be sung independently as a benediction at the close of any worship.
