Harivarasanam - a special song

'Harivarasanam' is the creation of Kumbakudi Kulathur Iyer. In 1955, Swami Vimochananad recited this Ashtakam for the first time at Sabarimala. And its a a nostalgic tradition that remains unbroken to this day that Harivarasanam is recited just prior to closing of the temple doors at night.
