Description of events and poojas by Temple Tantri and
Chief Priest, Brahmasree Divakaran Namboothiripad
Shadadhara Prathishta: The Shadadhara
Prathishta is a rite performed following
the Bhooparigrahanam (acquiring of the
land) and Karshanam (ploughing of the
land). The area where the Sreekovil of the
temple is to be built is dug till reaching
water or rock, or to the height of a person.
Three-fourths of the hole is filled tightly,
and the Shadadhara Prathishta is done
at the exact space above which the final
prathishta (installation) of main deity will
take place in the completed temple.

Aadharashila Sthaapanam: The rites
associated with the setting of the
Aadharashila, or foundation stone,
symbolise for our temple the introspective
nature of Shakti at the beginning of the
universe.
Ishtaka Sthaapanam: The Ishtaka
Sthaapanam, or the setting of bricks,
will be performed at the spot where
the door frame for the right door of the
Garbhagriha (inner annex) of the Sreekovil
(Sanctum Sanctorum) will be. Following
the Ishtaka Sthaapanam, the rites for the
Sri Gurubhyo nama

April 15 Friday
Vasthubali: This rite is preformed to
please the Gods within the land for
the construction. Vasthupurushan and
Bhramav are worshipped, and the many
Gods of Bhramav’s entourage are pleased
with rites. Becoming a sponsor for the
Vasthubali will bring relief to any problems
associated with the vasthu of your house.
Nidhikumbha Sthaapanam: When the
desire to create forms this power is called
Moolaprakruthy. This Moolaprakruthy is
what is contained in the Nidhikumbham,
which we fill with paddy (Navara Nellu)
that we have been praying over through
recitation of ‘Narayana’ over the last
several months/years by Namajapam
sessions. Along with Navara Nellu, other
items such as jewels, gold and silver in
different forms will be deposited in the
Nidhikumbham as well.

Garbhanyaamam will also take place in
the same area. The Ishtaka Homam and
Ishtakaadhivaasam are rituals that are
conducted to prepare and to make the
area apt for the Ishtaka Sthaapanam.
Garbhanyaasam: The Praasaadam, or
Sreekovil is the visible/physical form of
Guruvayurappan. The Garbhanyaasam is
the ritual of the earth becoming pregnant
with the deity. The symbolic pregnant
womb that is to form the visible/physical
form of the deity is then set in the middle
of the hollow formed by the bricks placed
during the Ishtaka Sthaapanam.
Sponsoring/participating in this particular
ritual (Garbhanyaasam) will bring divine
blessing to couples who are waiting to be
parents. It will help remove infertility.
