Mahashanti Thirumanjanam for Perumal started at 11am. Thiruvonam would have been Thirumanjanam for Desikar usually, but this was overridden by Pavitrotsavam. Unclear why Pavitrotsavam needed to pause today to do a Perumal Thirumanjanam though, unless that’s also a way to mark the Vamana jayanti – because after all this is THE Thiruvonam of the year. (Varadaraja’s nakshatram is Hastam, I believe).
Morning Pavitrotsavam Homam only on the circular homa kundam. Perumal thirumanjanam is done as part of Pavitrotsavam, as Prasanna confirms.

8:00 AM — Continuation of Homam
