Srisailam temple EO S Lavanna and others carrying the palanquin of presiding deities Lord Mallikarjuna Swamy and Goddess Bhramarambika Devi as part of Giri Pradakshina on Monday
EO S Lavanna says the devotees, who can’t participate directly in the Laksha Kumkumarchana, can participate indirectly at the arjitha sevas by paying Rs 1,110 through online and sending their Gothranamam
He said the Kumkuma, which is a mixture of auspicious spices, has much importance in the event. The pundits say the kumkuma will ward off evils and fill the lives and houses of people with abundance of peace and prosperity. The families would prosper and the childless couples would be bestowed with children, stated Lavanna.
The EO further said that the devotees, who could not participate directly in the Laksha Kumkumarchana, can participate indirectly at the arjitha sevas by sending their Gothranamam. Around 22 devotees are participating in the indirect kumkumarchana. The devotees, who participate at the paroksha kumkumarchana have to pay an amount of Rs 1,110 through online.
The devotees are advised to visit www.srisailadevasthanam.org or aptemples.ap.gov.in to pay the amount. The devotees are also advised to contact the temple information centre on 8333901351/52/53/54/44 and 56 for more information. Similarly, the temple has also organised Srisaila Giri Pradakshina in the evening. In the beginning, Maha Mangala Harati was given to Lord Mallikarjuna Swamy and Goddess Bhramarambika Devi. Later the utsava moorthis were seated in the palanquin and again special prayers were offered.
