SRI SANKARAMKUDAM SIVA TEMPLE,
KOTTAYANGAD, ELAVANCHERY P.O.
PALAKKAD – 678508.

DWAJA PRATHISHTA & UTSAVAM
30-01-2018 TO 09-02-2018

The ancient Sri Sankaramkudam Siva Temple is located in the precipice of a hillock surrounded with natural scenic beauty at Kottayangad in Elavanchery Panchayat. The temple is now administered by Perungottukavu Devaswam.

The sacred tradition and history of the temple had a great glorious past.  Unfortunately since long time this temple lacked attention and care in the vicissitudes of fast changing social, economic and various factors.  But of recent we observe a sudden awakening of society to restore the pristine glory of temple and places of worship for the welfare and prosperity of the people, which was lost due to long time negligence.  Accordingly Sri Sankaramkudam Siva Temple also got restored to its purity and perfection duly re-built maintaining all its sanctity, with the moral and financial support of a devotee of Sri Mahadevan from an ardent noble family.

With the divine blessings of Sri Mahadevan, arrangements are made to provide a Dwajam (Kodimaram) and its installation is proposed to be done with all devotional spirit, in the presence of devotees and in particular the people from the locality.

The Dwaja prathishta and Utsavam will also be conducted in a befitting manner with related rituals led by Thanthri Brahmasri Andaladi Parameswaran Namboodiripad.  The special ceremonies connected with the consecration will commence from 30-01-2018 to 09-02-2018.

It is expected from all for close co-operation in keeping strict observance to pursue purity both of mind and body befitting to the culture of temple atmosphere.

It is needless to mention that the programmes extending up to eleven days involve a great lot of expenditure.  Only with the co-operation and large-hearted financial support of devotees will it be possible to make this divine attempt a great accomplishment.

We therefore appeal to all devotees to participate in this sacrificial endeavour and contribute to their might so that the function is conducted smoothly.   It is rare privilege to involve in the noble yajna of installation of DWAJAM and pray to Sri Mahadevan for His blessings and ultimately help us to merge with the eternity.   May Sankarfamkudam Sri Manadevan’s blessings be showered on all devotees.
