Brahmotsavam Day 16, Shankhabhishekam. Went for this at 10:30am. Homam going on, Arjun Gurukkal (who was the main priest during the whole Brahmotsavam) leading. Abhishekam was happening, we caught the tail end of it. Homa finished, the 2 kalasa were taken by Arjun and Kalyana Sundara Gurukkals one round about the prakaram, coconut phat near the dhvajastambha, and then the main kalasa into the moolasthanam – Presumably 108 shankha for abhishekam, done one by one unlike Chetty Koyil where it was being done a few at a time – then shift over to Amman sannadhi for the second kalasa pour – simple alankaram and deeparadhanai.
The day's schedule:
9:00 AM - Utsava Shanti, Shankhabhishekam (Conch Abhishekam).
