Abhishekam

When we perform an Abhishekam, we are symbolically cooling the intense heat of the Divine by offering cooling substances. Notice that all articles used in an Abhishekam, such as Milk, Sandlewood paste, honey, water, etc. are cooling in nature. Sponsoring an Abhishekam when we go to the Temple is a thousand fold more effective in receiving Divine Grace than performing an Archana.

Abhishekam for Lord Shiva

An abhishekam for Lord Shiva is done every day at 9.30 AM. Lord Siva represents the aspect of the Supreme Being that continuously dissolves to recreate in the cyclic process of creation, preservation, dissolution, and recreation of the universe.

Archana

When we perform an Archana, stating our Gothram & Nakshaktra (Star), we are identifying ourselves with the Divine via the cosmic path and lineage we came along from. Performing an Archana when we go to the Temple is a hundred fold more effective in receiving Divine Grace than just visiting the Temple.
