Iraivan Temple Mandala Pujas

Following a temple consecration, a homa followed by abhishekam is performed daily for 48 days to help stabilize the newly generated shakti darshan and for the benefit of society and mankind in general.

One of the priests, Vivek Sivacharyar, has stayed on to perform these "Mandala Pujas" along with the younger Praveen Gurukkal who will continue on as the Iraivan Temple priest for the time being. The final three days are extra special, during which several Sivacharya priests will return to participate.

In the photos we see storage of homa/puja supplies nearby, and Vivek Sivacharyar just starting the homa for the day with a few devotees attending.
