Amman is in a green sari holding shankha-chakra: She is Narayani most probably or Vaishnavi and tonight her purappadu is on a naga vahanam.
Some tension in the air today because the alankaram man wasn’t keeping to timings, and the priest was threatening to have him replaced with another. This man doing alankaram was trained by another, older man whom we saw at the Sivan koyil – I think he said his name was Rajasekaran. The present alankarar isn’t his son, but has learned from him for long and it’s been in this “lineage” for long.
Some women making pongal, off and on through the day. Not as many as we were told there’d be, but a steady flow.
