Sringeri December 11, 2019

Jagadguru Sri Sri Sri Sannidhanam offered special puja to Goddess Sri Kalikamba at noon on December 11, 2019. The puja was attended by many devotees from various parts of the country and townspeople as well. After completion of Puja, the Jagadguru blessed the Seva Kartas with Kumkuma Prasadam.

Goddess Kalikamba is the guardian deity of Sringeri in the northern direction of Sringeri installed by Jagadguru Sri Adi Shankaracharya.

The following day, on December 12, 2019, the Jagadguru graced the Purnahuti ceremony of the ongoing Shatanchandi Yaga that was being performed at the temple on the occasion. The devotees led by elderly scholar and chief organiser of the Yaga, Vidwan Sri Vinayaka Udupa, (who is also a former Principal of Sri Sadvidya Sanjeevini Samskrita Mahapathashala) were then blessed by the Jagadgurus.
