சபரிமலையில் நிறை புத்தரிசி பூஜை அடுத்த மாதம் 3-ந் தேதி நடக்கிறது

According to Dina Thanthi, the Sabarimala Ayyappa temple is scheduled to conduct the 'Nira Puthari' ritual on the 3rd of next month. This traditional ceremony, which marks the harvesting of new paddy, is a significant event in the temple's annual ritual calendar and attracts devotees from across the region.

The Nira Puthari ritual involves the ceremonial bringing of freshly harvested paddy stalks into the temple sanctum. These stalks are then offered to the deity, symbolizing gratitude for a successful harvest and seeking blessings for prosperity in the coming year. Following the rituals, the blessed paddy is distributed to the devotees as 'prasadam'.

Sabarimala, one of the most prominent pilgrimage sites in India, follows a strict schedule of monthly pujas and festivals. The temple administration typically makes elaborate arrangements to manage the influx of pilgrims during such auspicious days. Devotees planning to visit the shrine are advised to check official notifications from the Travancore Devaswom Board regarding darshan timings and any specific guidelines for the day of the ceremony.
