Usually, offerings such as milk, yogurt, ghee, honey, Panchaamrutam, sesame oil, rosewater, sandalwood paste may be poured among other offerings depending on the type of abhishekam being performed. The annual Jyeshtabhishekam is held on Jyeshta nakshatram during Jyeshta month. Please come with your family and friends to participate in this auspicious event and receive divine blessings.
