• The word “Brahmotsavam” comes from two Sanskrit words:
  “Brahma” (God of creation) + “Utsavam” (Festival), meaning “Festival organized by Lord Brahma.”

• Legend says that Lord Brahma himself descended to Tirumala to perform the first festival in honor of Lord Venkateswara, seeking forgiveness for the sins of the world and to worship the Lord’s divine presence.
