Prathishta Varshika Mahotsavam 2026 – Vandiyottukonam Sree Bhadra Sastha Temple
The Prathishta Varshika Mahotsavam 2026 at Vandiyottukonam Sree Bhadra Sastha Temple will be celebrated with great devotion and traditional splendour from April 17 to April 21, 2026. This sacred annual observance commemorates the consecration anniversary of the temple, a spiritually significant occasion for devotees of Lord Sastha.
Prathishta Varshikam is regarded as an auspicious period when the divine energies of the deity are believed to be especially vibrant. Devotees participate in special rituals, poojas, and offerings to seek blessings for protection, prosperity, and well-being. The Mahotsavam brings together families, local residents, and visiting devotees in a shared expression of faith and reverence.
Throughout the five-day festival, the temple atmosphere becomes deeply spiritual and celebratory. Traditional ceremonies typically include Ganapathi Homam, Abhishekam, Deeparadhana, and Utsava Poojas, accompanied by Kerala’s classical temple art forms and percussion ensembles. Ritualistic processions and devotional chanting enhance the sanctity of the occasion.
Such festivals play a vital role in preserving temple traditions and strengthening community bonds. The Mahotsavam serves not only as a religious celebration but also as a cultural gathering that reflects the region’s living heritage.
All devotees are warmly invited to attend the festival and receive the blessings of Sree Bhadra Sastha.
