അശ്വതി എഴുന്നള്ളത്ത് 2026 ഇലങ്കത്തിൽ ശ്രീ ഭദ്രകാളി നവഗ്രഹ ക്ഷേത്രം പത്തനംതിട്ട | Ashwathi Ezhunnallathu 2026 Elankathil Sree Bhadrakali Navagraha Temple Pathanamthitta
Ashwathi Ezhunnallathu is one of the most revered and vibrant festivals celebrated at Elankathil Sree Bhadrakali Navagraha Temple in Pathanamthitta, Kerala. This sacred event is dedicated to the worship of the fierce yet benevolent Goddess Bhadrakali who is revered as the divine protector and remover of obstacles in devotees’ lives.
The festival is marked by a deep sense of devotion, traditional rituals and community participation making it a spiritually enriching experience for all who attend.
The highlight of the festival is the Ezhunnallathu, a ceremonial procession in which the deity’s idol is taken out of the sanctum sanctorum and paraded around the temple premises amidst chanting of hymns, ringing of bells and rhythmic beats of traditional percussion instruments like the chenda and edakka. Devotees eagerly gather along the route to offer their prayers and receive blessings, creating an atmosphere of devotion, energy and cultural vibrancy.
Another key aspect of the celebration is the Ashwathi Pooja performed with great reverence to invoke the goddess’s blessings for health, prosperity and protection from negative influences. The pooja rituals are conducted according to traditional Kerala tantric practices and devotees often participate actively, offering flowers, camphor and other sacred items. Following the pooja, the temple organizes Ashwathi Sadya, a sumptuous vegetarian feast served to all devotees reflecting the spirit of generosity and communal harmony.
Beyond its religious significance, Ashwathi Ezhunnallathu also serves as a platform for cultural expression showcasing traditional music, dance and temple arts that have been preserved through generations. The festival strengthens community bonds and allows devotees to reconnect with their spiritual heritage while experiencing the unique ambiance of Kerala’s temple traditions.
