ശഷ്ടി വ്രതം 2026 ചൊച്ചേരിക്കുന്ന് ശ്രീ സുബ്രഹ്മണ്യ സ്വാമി ക്ഷേത്രം തൃശൂർ | Shasti Viratham 2026 Chocherikkunnu Sri Subrahmanya Swami Temple Thrissur
Shasti Viratham is one of the most revered festivals dedicated to Lord Subrahmanya celebrated with great devotion at Chocherikkunnu Sri Subrahmanya Swami Temple in Thrissur.
This festival falls on the sixth day of every lunar fortnight, known as Shasti, which is considered highly auspicious for worshipping Lord Murugan, the divine son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Devotees from Thrissur and neighboring regions visit the temple in large numbers to participate in this sacred observance.
During Shasti Viratham, the temple becomes a vibrant center of spiritual activities. Devotees undertake strict fasting, abstaining from food or consuming only simple vegetarian fare as a form of penance and devotion. The fast is believed to cleanse the body and mind allowing worshippers to focus fully on prayers and meditation. Special poojas and abhishekams are conducted throughout the day, with priests performing intricate rituals using sacred oils, flowers and traditional offerings to invoke the blessings of Lord Subrahmanya.
The temple also organizes devotional music, recitations of Subrahmanya stotras and group prayers creating an atmosphere filled with spiritual energy and collective faith. Devotees light lamps, offer coconuts and participate in circumambulations around the sanctum believing that these acts enhance prosperity, remove obstacles and bring good fortune. Children and elders alike actively take part in the rituals emphasizing the festival’s role in fostering community bonding and spiritual unity.
