Devotees queue up for Thiruvabharanam darsanam



The Srambickal Palace at Pandaalm has been witnessing heavy rush of devotees to worship the Thiruvabharanam kept at the palace strong room ever since the beginning of the Makaravilakku festival.

The strong room was reopened on December 30 for the devotees to worship the Thiruvabharanam, sacred attire of the presiding deity at Sabarimala Ayyappa Temple. The darshan time is from 5.30 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The Thiruvabharanam will be taken out in a procession from Pandalam to Sabarimala for the Makaravilakku festival.


Harivarma Raja of Kaippuzha Panthaplavil Palace will be the royal representative escorting the procession this year.

The procession will set off from Pandalam on January 13 afternoon.

The procession will reach Sabarimala Sannidhanam on January 15, after having halts at Ayroor Bhagavathy Temple on January 13 and Laha Sathram on January 14 evening.

The Ayyappa idol will be decorated with the sacred jewellery prior to the deeparadhana at 6.30 p.m.

The Thiruvabharanam will be brought back to the palace after the culmination of the Makaravilakku festival.

The pilgrimage will come to a close after the Athazhapuja on January 20 evening and the temple will be closed immediately after the customary exclusive darshan by the royal representative on January 21 morning.
