Guest guest Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 !! Sri Rama Jayam !! Best wishes to my dear Guruvayur family. It is 'Ramayana Masam' again ! Chant 'Rama nama' as always, do a dedicated 'Paraayanam' & be happy. It will return the profits of the whole year, whole life & much beyond that to you and your family. The ritualistic annual Aanayoottu ceremony, which takes place at the Vadakkumnatha Temple (Thrissur) is an interesting event in connection with the arrival of Karkidakam. "Aanayoottu" literally means feeding the elephants with specially prepared food, which is valued for its high medicinal value. This medicinal concoction is regarded vital for enhancing the well being of the elephants. At this ceremony, elephants are lined up on the first day of the Malayalam month of Karkidakam (July-August). The month of Karkidakam is considered ideal for all kinds of rejuvenation therapies in Ayurveda, the Indian system of medicine.
