Kumkumarchana — Annapoorneshwari Temple, Horanadu
What This Remedy Does
Kumkumarchana at the Annapoorneshwari Temple in Horanadu is an archana of the Devi with kumkum, booked online in your name. The temple's priests offer it with up to four names, your gotra and, if you share it, your birth star. Afterwards you receive the temple receipt or a confirmation on WhatsApp.
What is Kumkumarchana?
Kumkumarchana is an archana, or worship through the Devi's names, in which kumkum (vermilion) is offered at every name. The priest usually chants the 108 names, called the ashtottara, or the thousand names, the sahasranama. Families across Karnataka offer it in Devi temples for the good of the household. At Horanadu it is offered to Devi Annapoorneshwari, the giver of food. Your name and gotra are spoken in the sankalp, the statement of intent naming whom the seva is for.
Why devotees book it
- A prayer for the well-being of the family, offered to the Devi honoured as the giver of food
- Gratitude for the food on the family table and for a year of plenty in the home
- A prayer for marriage, or for a happy and harmonious married life
- Protection for loved ones, sought from Devi Annapoorneshwari in faith
When to book
Fridays and Tuesdays are the usual days for Kumkumarchana, along with full-moon days and the festival of Navaratri. Any other day you prefer can also be requested. Once you have booked, the Horanadu date is agreed with you over WhatsApp.
