Pawan Kalyan Begins His Annual Deeksha

Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister and Jana Sena Party president Pawan Kalyan began his annual deeksha after offering special prayers to Sri Panakala Swamy in Mangalagiri on Wednesday morning. He traditionally starts the deeksha during the Jyeshtha month and concludes it in the Kartika month every year.

Pawan Kalyan observes the deeksha as part of the spiritual discipline associated with the mantra initiation he received from his guru. During this period, he follows a disciplined lifestyle, consumes only satvik food, wears sandal colored attire, and regularly performs prayers, meditation, mantra chanting, and devotional practices.
