CONCEPT-
INTRODUCTION
Lord Tirupati also known as Venkateshwara, Srinivasa, Venkata, Venkatacalapati, is a form of Hindu God Vishnu, who is believed to have appeared here to save mankind from trails and troubles of Kali-yuga. Venkateshwara literally means “Lords of Venkata”. The word is a combination of words Venkata (the name of the hill in Andhra Pradesh) and Ishvara (Lords). According to the Brahmanda and Bhavishyottara purans, the word 'Venkata’ means ‘destroyer of sins', derives from the Sanskrit words Vem (Sins) and Kata (Power immunity).
Sri Venkata has acquired unique sanctity in religious lores as the bestower of boons. Sastras, Puranas, Sthala Mahatyams and Alwar hymns unequivocally declare that, in the Kalyuga, one can attain mukti, only by worshipping Sri Venkateshwara.

BALAJI POSTURE
Bhavishyottara Puran describes the Lord's bewitching postures:-
1- The lord’s lower arms are held in a unique pose. The right arm held in the ‘Vara Mudra”, with the fingers pointing to his lotus feet, telling us that it is they (His Tiruvadi) that form both our everlasting refuge and also the strategy to attain the same.
2- The lower left hand is held at the hip, slightly bent inwards, assuring us not to be terrified of ‘Samsaara’ the unfathomable ocean, which is only hip-deep to those who are under the Sharan of his lotus feet, (as indicates by his right palm).
3- It is also noteworthy that the Lord of Tiruvenkatam points to his tiruvadi with his open right palm, symbolically indicating the Bhagwat Gita dictum to surrender to him- “Maan Ekam Sharanam vrajal”, thereby confirming that this Lord is indeed Sri Krishna (Venkata Krishna) of Kalyuga.
PRAYER AND CHANTINGS FROM BRAHMANDA PURANAS:-
1- “Venkatesho, Vasudevah, pradhyumno, amitha Vikramah, Sankarshano, anirudhascha Seshdri patireva cha”

2- “Srinidhi sarva bhoothaanaam bhayakrudh, bhaya nasana, Sri Ramo Ramabhadrascha bhava bhandaika mochakah”.
Meaning: - he who is the treasure of Goddess of fortune Lakshmi; and one who create fear in demon, he also destroyer fear in good beings; he is Rama, he is Rama who is extremely auspicious & ensures safety; he who release living beings from the bondage of cycle of birth & death.
