点评:Hi I have recently visited Tirupati Balaji with my mother and I had a horrific experience .
Sharing details
I booked sleeper bus and we have started around 8.40 PM from KR Puram and we reached our hotel around 1.30 AM
That hotel stay was included in my package .We freshed up in the hotel and had our breakfast at around 2.30 AM. From hotel to Tirupati temple ,they arranged the Tata Sumo .
In one hour we reached Balaji Temple . At around 4 AM we entered the temple .
After around 3 hours walk we reached in waiting hall no 9 .There are waiting rooms available from I guess from 1 to 9 and they fill first 9 then 8 ,7 and soon on.
We waited 2 hours in the waiting hall and the good thing was that we had our phones while waiting in the waiting hall.
We are kept locked for 2 hours in waiting room . Front and rear doors were kept closed for 2 hours .We could not go outside from that waiting room . Around 9 AM they opened the door of waiting rooms . Then we walked for half hour , submitted our phones and took the ticket on entrance .I am uploading the photo of ticket .That ticket is required to enter in the main template .After security checkin we entered in our waiting chamber at around 9.30 AM .There are many chambers available. As we were in the free Darshana queue so we had to wait around 14 hours for Darshana . Here are few negatives and positive points which I feel need to mention from my experience.This is my personal experience and please don’t feel offended from it .
Positive
1. Bhagwan Venkateshwara’s Darshan
Negative
1. Though there are toilets everywhere whether you walk or wait in waiting hall or in chamber but they are not properly clean .In men’s toilets many urination boxes were filled with urine and urine was flawing like waterfall and worst thing is that you have to go in all toilets without any slipper or shoes as you have to remove your shoes outside the temple .Here I think they can give option to remove shoes near by temple only .People walk on the floor of waiting chamber with those feet and you have to lay down on the floor of those waiting chambers as you can’t kept sitting for so long .
2. In waiting chambers there are two screens ,one for few template related programs and other for people’s information .In other screen they shows how many people waiting prior to you ,how many chambers still need to open prior to you ,how many people waiting behind you and what is expected time to open for your chamber and bad thing is that in my case it never get updated .From the time we entered in waiting chamber till the time we left the chamber ,same wrong info was kept on playing on the screen .I think here management needs to understand this is the only mean to people to know how much time it will take to open the door so it should be always provide the correct info so that frustration of people could be reduced .
3. I did not see any positive energy on people’s faces .Most of the people(60-70%) were sleeping and others were just waiting and looking towards the door when would it be opened .No kirtan No bhajan no Bhakti .
4. People were kept locked for so long and it gives feeling of prisoner as they barely can go out side from front door and they have to eat what they provide (Upma,smbhar rice).
5. Most of the people did not freshen up properly so you need to ready to smell the people’s fart and that was disgusting as well.
Overall I do not think this is best place for Bhakti .You have many good option in India .
翻译:嗨,我最近和妈妈一起去了蒂鲁帕蒂巴拉吉,那次经历太可怕了。
分享详情
我预订了卧铺大巴,晚上 8:40 左右从 KR Puram 出发,凌晨 1:30 左右到达酒店
酒店住宿包含在套餐内。我们在酒店梳洗一番,大约凌晨 2:30 吃早餐。从酒店到蒂鲁帕蒂寺,他们安排了 Tata Sumo。
一小时后,我们到达了巴拉吉寺。凌晨 4 点左右,我们进入了寺庙。
步行约 3 小时后,我们到达了 9 号候车厅。我猜从 1 号到 9 号都有候车室,他们先是 9 号坐满了,然后是 8 号、7 号,很快又坐满了。
我们在候车厅等了 2 个小时,幸好我们在候车厅等的时候有手机。
我们被锁在候车室里 2 个小时。前后门关闭了 2 个小时。我们无法从候诊室出去。上午 9 点左右,他们打开了候诊室的门。然后我们走了半个小时,交出手机,在入口处拿了票。我正在上传票的照片。需要凭票才能进入主模板。安检后,我们于上午 9:30 左右进入候诊室。有很多候诊室可用。因为我们在免费的 Darshana 队列中,所以我们不得不等待大约 14 个小时才能到达 Darshana。以下是我认为需要从我的经验中提及的一些负面和正面观点。这是我的个人经历,请不要因此感到被冒犯。
正面
1. Bhagwan Venkateshwara 的 Darshan
负面
1. 虽然到处都有厕所,无论您是步行还是在候诊大厅或室内等候,但它们都不太干净。男厕所里有许多小便箱里装满了尿液,尿液像瀑布一样四溅,最糟糕的是,您必须不穿拖鞋或鞋子进入所有厕所,因为您必须在寺庙外脱鞋。在这里,我认为他们只能在寺庙附近提供脱鞋的选项。人们用脚在候诊室的地板上行走,而您必须躺在候诊室的地板上,因为您不能坐那么久。
2. 等候室有两块屏幕,一块显示一些模板相关程序,另一块显示人们的信息。另一块屏幕上显示有多少人在您之前等候,有多少房间需要在您之前开放,有多少人在您之后等候,以及您的房间预计开放时间是什么时候,糟糕的是,在我这里这些信息从不更新。从我们进入等候室到我们离开等候室,屏幕上一直显示相同的错误信息。我认为这里的管理层需要明白,这是让人们知道开门需要多长时间的唯一方法,所以应该总是提供正确的信息,这样人们的沮丧感就会减少。
3. 我没有在人们的脸上看到任何积极的能量。大多数人 (60-70%) 都在睡觉,其他人只是在等待,看着门什么时候会开。没有 kirtan,没有 bhajan,没有 Bhakti。
4. 人们被关了太久,感觉就像囚犯一样,因为他们几乎不能从前门出去,只能吃他们提供的食物(Upma、smbhar 米饭)。
5. 大多数人没有好好梳洗,所以你需要准备好闻人们放的屁,这也很恶心。
总的来说,我不认为这是 Bhakti 的最佳场所。在印度有很多不错的选择。
