With
its lofty ideal of "Ore Thai and Ore K ulam" "only one Mother
and one Race" it is admitting into its innermost chamber garbha griha -
all the devotees, regardless of their affiliations to caste, colour, creed,
religion, region, age, sex, language etc. A novelty, no where practised, though
preached always. This synthesis of divergent faiths makes this Sidhakshetra a
microcosm of the religious life of India. Every festival of major religions of
our sacred land are performed in the garbha griha-Karuvarai. In accordance with
the provisions made, Christians, Jains, Buddhists can enter the sanctum and
offer prayers in the pattern they are accustomed to. Besides, there are no
hereditary priests to harass or brow-beat the devotees, by mumbling something,
only to extract abnormal sums by way of fees to conducting prayer services.
Anyone can offer archana, abhishekam etc., by himself, guided by some
experienced devotees, whose duration lasts for 24 hours. These and other similar
traditions introduced by the renowned Sakti Upasakar and dedicated founder Sri
Bangaru Naicker, endearingly called Nadamadum Daivam and Anmeeka Guru moving God
and spiritual preceptor have transformed that a tiny-shed of 1966 into a
spiritual light house of India of 1990, with 2000 branches.
