Triputhari fest to be celebrated on Thursday

Thursday August 11 2005 13:22 IST

GURUVAYUR: `Triputhari' festival will be celebrated at the Sree Krishna

temple in Guruvayur on Thursday.

 

The festival will begin with `ariyalakkal' (measuring of rice) by the

temple Pathukaran from Vadekkepattu Wariam. Thousands will throng the

temple for offering `puthari payasam' and `appam' to the Lord.

 

The unique `nivedyam', comprising rice made from fresh

paddy, `uppumanga' (a variety of mango pickle) and `pathilakkari' (pot-

herb made of ten varieties of leaves) are offered to the deity

during `uchapooja'.

 

Traditionally, `Kazhakom' family member Puthiyedathu Narayanikutty

Sharasyar brings the `uppumanga' for the `nivedyam'. The best tender

mangoes picked from the family compound will be preserved in salt water

in a China pot for nearly six months from the month of Kumbham
