Uthsava Moorthies in Different Postures

[Guest guest]

Srimathe Nigamantha Mahadeshikaya Namaha

Hi,

 

Let me tell how exactly this is done.

Based on the type of Utsavam, we decorate the Processional deity (Utsava

Murthi).

It happens like this, based on the type of Alankaram, we have Hasthams(Hands

Moulds)

and padams(Leg Moulds) in different postures.The processional deity is

decorated with

these like anyother ornaments.Around the hasthams and Padams, we tie up a

beautiful vasthram (Cloth).

But during the Prathistapanam of the Uthsava Moorthi, the Hasthams and

padams also go through

the routine of prathistapanam. I know this because I come from a family of

Priests.

Before Joining WIPRO Technologies, I was working as a Priest in Bangalore

Any Queries Mail me back.

Regards

Vijay T N
