Moolavar Abhishekam — Ekambaranathar Temple, Kanchipuram
What This Remedy Does
At Ekambaranathar Temple in Kanchipuram, the Moolavar Abhishekam is offered to Shiva's main image, a linga of earth. The temple's priests perform it in the manner prescribed for this linga, with up to four names and gotras in the sankalp. You then receive a confirmation or the temple receipt on WhatsApp.
What is Moolavar Abhishekam?
Moolavar means the main, fixed image of a temple, and a Moolavar Abhishekam is the ritual bathing offered to it. At Ekambaranathar Temple that image is Shiva as a linga of earth. To protect it, the temple performs the abhishekam in its own prescribed way. Your name and gotra are recited in the sankalp, which dedicates the seva to you. An archana, the chanting of Shiva's names, and aarti, the lamp offering, then complete it.
Why devotees book it
- Devotion to Shiva, offered at the Pancha Bhoota temple of earth
- A prayer for peace and stability in the family during a time of change
- A prayer before marriage, for the couple and both families, offered in faith
- Thanksgiving to Ekambaranathar after a prayer is answered or a vow is kept
When to book
Pradosham, Mondays and Maha Shivaratri are the traditional days for an abhishekam to Shiva at Kanchipuram. Some families also offer it before a wedding in the family, as a prayer for the couple. Our team agrees the date with you on WhatsApp before your booking is processed.
About Ekambaranathar Temple
Ekambaranathar Temple, in Kanchipuram town and district, Tamil Nadu, is the Pancha Bhoota temple of earth. Shiva is honoured here as a linga of earth, and the temple follows its own prescribed method for the abhishekam. By tradition, the name Ekambara comes from the temple's mango tree, beneath which Devi Kamakshi worshipped Shiva. The Kamakshi Amman and Varadaraja Perumal temples stand in the same town. Many devotees value a Moolavar Abhishekam here because it is offered to the earth linga itself.
