Program:
We are delighted to conduct Maha Lingarchana during the auspicious month of Karthika.  Maha Lingarchana is a unique vedic ritual to worship lord Siva in the name of Uma Pardhiveswara Swamy.  It is an elaborate Archana of 365 Parthiva Lingas made of sanctified clay. These Siva Lingas are arranged in the form of Kailasa Prasthara Yantram which is a depiction of Siva Kailasam with 11-16 Avaranas and 365 Rudra swaroopas.  Siva Shakti is invoked into each Siva Lingam through Vedic mantras and Beejaksharas in various Aavaranas in the Yantram and worshiped with great devotion to seek the blessings of Sri Uma Pardhiveswara Swamy for health, wealth, prosperity, bliss and ultimately mukthi.  365 also represents the days in the year, equivalent of doing Siva Puja for every day of the year
