What This Remedy Does
Ayush Homam at Amritaghateswarar Abirami Temple, Thirukkadaiyur, is a fire ritual for long life, booked in your name. The temple's priests offer it to Ayur Devata, the deity of life span, for up to four people named in the sankalp. Afterwards, our team shares a confirmation or the temple receipt on WhatsApp.
What is Ayush Homam?
Ayush Homam, also called Ayushya Homam, is a homam, or fire ritual, for long life. It is offered to Ayur Devata, the deity of life span, often with prayers to Mrityunjaya and the nine Navagraha. In South India families traditionally perform it on a birthday by birth star, for a child or an adult. At Thirukkadaiyur, linked with long life in Shaiva tradition, the temple's priests perform it for you. The sankalp, the opening statement of intent, carries your name and gotra.
Why devotees book it
- A prayer for long life and good health for a parent, child or yourself, offered in faith
- A child's first birthday, or any later birthday kept by birth star
- A 60th or 80th birthday year, as a homam separate from the in-person ceremonies
- A prayer for recovery after an illness, offered alongside medical care
When to book
The traditional day is the birthday by birth star, the janma nakshatra, whether for a child or an elder. Families also choose an auspicious day after an illness, or a wedding anniversary. The Shashtiapthapoorthi and Sathabhishekam ceremonies need the family present and are not part of this booking. We confirm your date on WhatsApp.
