Significance of Puratasi Months

The Puratasi month holds significant importance in our temples dedicated to Vishnu, particularly Lord Perumal (a form of Vishnu).

Shrimad Rajamahalanarayana Vishnu Puranam: According to this ancient text, Lord Perumal performs a special darshan (sight) in the month of Puratasi, making it a sacred period.

Mythological Events: In temples associate specific events from Hindu mythology with these months. For instance, the killing of Madhu demon by Vishnu is believed to have occurred during this period.

Purification and Blessings

The energy vibrations in the temple premises are believed to be heightened during Puratasi, making it an ideal time for devotees to seek blessings and perform special rituals.

Our temples offer special pujas (worship), abhishekams, and other spiritual activities during this period.

Significance of the 3rd Day

In our Perumal temples, on the 3rd Saturday of Puratasi is particularly significant. Here are some key reasons why devotees are allowed inside the Grabha Grah on this specific day.

Special Darshan (Sight) and Prasadam

The energy levels in the temple are believed to be exceptionally high on this day, making it a auspicious time for devotees to seek divine blessings. Many believe that special pujas performed on this day have greater efficacy due to the enhanced spiritual atmosphere.

Community Engagement​

The 3rd Saturday day of Puratasi often sees increased participation from devotees and the local community and other states devotees visited  and devasthanam committee organizing special programs and events. It is a time for renewing vows, seeking personal blessings, and engaging in deeper spiritual practices.

Cultural and Social Significance

Additional Benefits

This practice not only enhances the spiritual experience but also strengthens the bond between the devotee and the deity through personal darshan and special blessings.
