ഗരുഡൻ കളരി 2026 കോത്തല ഇളങ്കാവ് ഭഗവതിക്ഷേത്രം കോട്ടയം| Garudan Kalari 2026 Kothala Elankavu Bhagavathy Temple Kottayam
Garudan Kalari 2026 at Kothala Elankavu Bhagavathy Temple, Kottayam, scheduled for January 24, 2026, is one of the most anticipated cultural and devotional spectacles in Kerala.
The festival centers around the Garudan Kalari performance, a unique ritual art form where performers dressed as Garudan, the divine eagle vehicle of Lord Vishnu, perform synchronized aerial movements, martial art techniques, and acrobatics to the rhythmic beats of traditional percussion instruments. This mesmerizing display symbolizes the triumph of divine power, protection, and devotion, creating a spiritually charged environment for devotees.
The event is deeply rooted in the temple’s traditions and reflects Kerala’s rich heritage of folk arts, martial arts (Kalaripayattu), and temple rituals. The performers, through their skillful movements, enact the mythological narratives associated with Garudan, enthralling spectators of all ages. The ritual begins with preparatory offerings and prayers to invoke the blessings of Goddess Bhagavathy, followed by the ceremonial “flight” of the Garudans around the temple premises, which is believed to ward off negative energies and bring prosperity to devotees.
Apart from the Garudan Kalari, the festival also features devotional music, Thalappoli processions, and sacred rituals performed by the temple priests, creating a harmonious blend of art, devotion, and community participation. Thousands of devotees gather to witness the spectacle, making it a significant religious and cultural event in the Kottayam district. Garudan Kalari 2026 not only showcases the grandeur of Kerala’s temple traditions but also strengthens the spiritual connection of devotees with the divine, leaving a lasting impression on all who attend.
