Pattattanam,
giving away gifts to learned men as we have seen at Tali temple, is also conducted here
though on a much smaller scale. This is done on Thiruvonam. asterisim in Makaram
(January- February) which is considered as the prathista day of the deity.
A favorite offering to the main idol, Sri Rama, is kalabham or smearing the image with
scented sandal paste. To Hanuman, the offering is avil or beaten rice.
Niramala or a decoration with garlands hung in profusion and vilakku is another popular
offering.
The idol with the sandal paste and decorated with various ornaments is a sight to see. |
