Salakatla Jyeshtabhishekam at Tirumala 2025

 


The annual Jyeshtabhishekam will be observed at Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple from June 9 to 11, honoring the sacred deities.

This three-day ritual, also known as Abhidhyeyaka Abhishekam, serves to protect and preserve the ceremonial idols of Sri Malayappa Swamy, Sridevi, and Bhudevi, ensuring their sanctity despite centuries of worship.

Sacred Adornment of the Deity

  • Day 1: The golden armour is removed, followed by homas, abhishekams, and Tirumanjanam. The deity is then adorned with a diamond armour.
  • Day 2: A pearl armour replaces the diamond.
  • Day 3: The deity is re-adorned with the golden armour, which remains throughout the year.

Significance

This ritual represents spiritual purification and divine preservation, reinforcing the eternal connection between devotees and Sri Malayappa Swamy.

A powerful spectacle of devotion, tradition, and cosmic balance, Jyeshtabhishekam is a cherished event that allows devotees to witness Sri Swami’s divine transformation.
