A Spiritual Milestone at One of India’s Most Iconic Temples
The Padmanabhaswamy Temple, where Lord Vishnu is worshipped in his majestic reclining form on the serpent Anantha, is among the holiest Divya Desams revered by Vaishnavites. Now, for the first time in over two centuries, devotees will witness an elaborate consecration ceremony to reinvigorate the spiritual energy of this ancient shrine.
As part of the Maha Kumbhabhishekam, several key rituals will be performed:
Consecration of newly constructed thazhikkakudams
Reinstallation of the Vishwaksena idol
Ashtabandha Kalasam at Thiruvambady Sree Krishna Temple
Rituals like Acharya Varanam, Prasada Shuddhi, Dhara, Kalasam, and more
These rituals adhere strictly to the centuries-old traditions of the temple, offering a rare opportunity for pilgrims to witness living spiritual history.
