The festival includes the performance of the Dashavatara chart celebrating the ten incarnations of Lord Mahavishnu which is a major spiritual highlight for devotees. Various poojas, homams and offerings such as the Ashtadravya Ganapathi Homam and Udayasthamana Pooja are conducted to invoke divine blessings for prosperity, health, and well-being.
In addition to the sacred rituals, Neeranjanam is marked by a rich cultural program featuring traditional music, dance and art forms, reflecting Kerala’s vibrant heritage.

The festival is a unique blend of devotion, artistry and tradition creating an atmosphere of divine celebration that inspires faith, discipline and collective participation. Every year, the temple administration and devotees work together, offering sincere help, presence, and cooperation to make Neeranjanam a complete spiritual and cultural success reinforcing the temple’s role as a beacon of faith and community devotion.
