The sages circumambulated the Supreme Lord, offered their obeisances
and returned, extremely delighted at learning of the divine opulences of
the Vaisnava.

temples. Especially in Vaignava temples there is an arrangement for
people to offer respects to the Deity and circumambulate the temple at
least three times.
