Sri Mariamman Temple | Silver Chariot 2017 Day 2 | Chariot Arrival

Apologies for the poor video quality... In the lead up to Firewalking Festival 2017, a silver chariot carrying Sri Drowpathai Amman went on a procession around Singapore from Sri Mariamman temple. This video shows the utsava murti, decorated as Sri Drowpathai Amman, arriving back into the temple. Sri Drowpathai Amman was received back into the temple with the song maasaru ponne varuga and then gently rocked to the song Om Sakthi on the thavil and nadaswaram before returning to the vasantha mandabam. During the procession, the chariot visited the following locations:
Telok Blangah Heights (BLK 57)
Sri Ruthra Kaliamman Temple (Depot Road)
Hoy Fatt Road (BLK 28 Driveway)
Bukit Merah View (BLK 123)
At these places, devotees welcomed Sri Mariamman on her silver chariot with loud music and great spirits. They then seek her blessings by offering varisai thattu.
