KAILASA's Chitthirai Peruvizha

Chitthirai Peruvizha is a brahmotsavam – a utsavam or a festival organized by the Lord Creator Brahma. Brahma, the creator of the cosmos, is said to organize such a festival with universal grandeur and celebration.

What is KAILASA’s Chitthirai Peruvizha

Chitthirai Peruvizha is a Brahmotsavam – a utsavam or a festival organized by the Lord Creator Brahma. Brahma, the creator of the cosmos, organizes such festivals with universal grandeur and celebration.

All temple festivals are ‘Utsavams’, and the most important one is called ‘Brahmotsavam.’ The Sanskrit word ‘Utsava’ denotes an act of creation or re-creation. If we study the features of the Brahmotsavam, we will find that more than any other temple festival, the Brahmotsavam would essentially be a festival of re-creation.

Celebrating Meenakshi and Sundareshwara’s advent, glory, and blessings is that re-creation. As they manifest, they save the world from misery and delusion.

THE SUPREME PONTIFF OF HINDUISM (SPH), BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM revives authentic Hindu rituals from VedaAgamas to manifest your dreams into reality. Until we can manifest our reality ourselves, we can offer sevas so that Paramashiva will manifest the reality we want. Become a part of the grand sevas offered to your favorite Gods, Meenakshi Sundareshwara.
