Next is 'Kanchi Vaarpu' which means serving porridge to the mother. The unique feature
of this activity is that, this porridge is prepared by every one separately and is brought to Siddhar Peedam and is
poured into a same utensil and served as prasadham to the devotees. The reason for such an activity is that, when mixed,
the porridge prepared by different persons looses its identity and gains common status. The moral behind this activity is
nothing other than spread unity among human.
The third part of it is that abishekam (bathing or pouring) of milk
to the SWAYAMBU.
This festival is celebrated around the world in all worship centers (Mandrams). In USA, it is celebrated with famous
chakra yagna at Shakti Peetam and Spiritual Center of NA Shakti Peetam of NA. |
