    I used a similar approach but dint keep on storing all of the values of hour glass instead just kept on swaping the values incase the value of new hour glass was greater than the previous one.

    import sys

a = []
for arr_i in xrange(6):
    arr_temp = map(int,raw_input().strip().split(' '))
    a.append(arr_temp)
    
max_sum =-63
    
for i in range(4):
    for j in range(4):
        check_sum = a[i][j]+a[i][j+1]+a[i][j+2]+a[i+1][j+1]+a[i+2][j]+a[i+2][j+1]+a[i+2][j+2]
                    
        if check_sum > max_sum:
            max_sum = check_sum
            
print max_sum
