Kanakadharayajnam
Kanaka Dhara Sthothram is re-recited for all of us at the temple of Lakshmy Pathy, with the current successor of the blessed fortunes from family of Swarnath Mana, decorating 'Agrasthanam'. Successors of Pazhoor Mana, the family of Sree Sankara's maternal uncles, Thalayattumpilly and Kapilly Manas the only 2 out of 10 Namboothiri families now existing at Kalady, also are participating.
A chosen group of 32 Archakas representing 32 years of life of Sankara will be reciting the Kanaka Dhara Sthothram with due 'vruthasudhi' and 'thantric nistha'. Devotees could get the Kanaka Dhara Sthothram recited in their name and nakshatra before merciful Thrikaladyappan - Kula Deva of Adi Sankara. The Thanthri for the Yajnam would be Brahmasree Avanaparambu Pradeep Namboothiripad.
A talisman of Kanaka Dhara Yanthra or Elass will be delivered as prasadam marking your fortunate participation. Those who already participated in the Yajnam of 2005 were offered a Punarpooja of their Yanthra after two years and can get it done during this time. The Yanthra is made as per the Yanthra Vidhi instructions of Kanipayyoor Namboothiripad and as per Kerala thantric rituals. Keeping of the Yanthra in the pooja room / place of business with dhooma (agarbathi) and neyvilakku (ghee lamp) on Fridays are considered best for the enhancing of powers of the Yanthra.
This year Kanaka Dhara Yajnam is being concluded on the Akshaya Tridiya Day, the best time of the year to get blessed Gold. The Crystal charged with Kanaka Dhara Sthothram chants covered with Gold is called the Golden Amalka and is available for those blessed devotees. One could wear this as a locket in their chain or can keep in the pooja room.
Your presence and darshan of the unique holy event, hearing of the hymns and darshan of merciful Thrikaladyappan, Sri Krishna is the greatest of fortune and punyam. All are invited to have blessings of fortune of this Kanakadhara.
