MASI MAHOTSAVAM – 2026 INVITATION FOR THE BRAHMANA BHAGA, KRAMA PARAYANAM OF KRISHNA YAJUR VEDA
The holy land of Bharat (India) is the home of many sacred places, rivers and temples. Among these are numerous Kshetras where Azhwars and Nayanmars have sung praises and those which are celebrated in the puranas to be holier than the city of Kashi, as well as those spots which are well known for murthi (icon), sthalam (place) and theertham (waters). Like a ruby studded crown on top of all these, shines Kumbakonam, where the deities Shri Kumbeshwarar, Shri Nageshwarar, Shri Vishwanathar, Shri Sharngapani, Shri Chakrapani and Shri Ramaswami have their respective temple complexes and bless the devotees with no discrimination whatsoever.
The Mahamaha tank is the highlight of this place. During the Mahamaham festival, which is celebrated in Kumbakonam once in every 12 years, it is believed that 64 crores theerthams (holy bodies of water) along with the sacred Ganga confluence in this tank. In such glorious Kumbakonam, as part of the Masi Mahotsavam, our ISHTA POORTHA KAINKARYA CHARITABLE TRUST (Dabeer street kakshi) is organizing KRISHNA YAJUR VEDA MOOLA PARAYANAM, THE BRAHMAΝΑ BHAGAM AND KRAMA PARAYANAM for 10 days between 21-Feb-2026 and 02 March – 2026. I humbly request all the Astikas to take part in this divine deed and be blessed by Veda Matha, Shri Mangalambika and Shri Adhi Kumbeshwara swamy.
