A SPECIAL VISHU GIFT FOR EVERY AYYAPPA DEVOTEES…
This year, Increation Media Entertainment re-defines the concept of Ayyappa songs. This album celebrates the confluence of minds and prayers in their purest form.
Saranapadham is the first in the unique series of products that Increation is bringing out to depict the true essence of Indian tradition and culture.
The combination of Sharreth , Kavalan Sreekumar and Sankaran Namboodiri, the best in the genre of classical music, have come together to create this amazing product. This is the first time in the history of Ayyappa devotional songs that these great legends have joined hands for this album.
Mochita, a State award-winning compere has written 8 melodious songs that captures the real essence of pilgrimage to Sabrimala. Vishwajith, one of the most talented music directors of the present generation, has composed the original score for Saranapadham. He has the ability to convert words into soothing music. One of the songs in this album is sung by children. They reach out to Manikattan as a friend, a playmate, a guide and a protector.
Saranapadham is unique in many respects. The cover of Saranapadham speaks for itself. It gives a true feeling of the journey taken by the pilgrims. It shows no matter how strenuous the climb to Sabrimala is the pilgrims are always focused on their Lord amidst the mist and the dangers of the climb.
You can listen to all the songs. Also please note that this Audio CD is only available through Direct booking through our Website

Dear Ayyappa Swamy Devotees
I am Vijayaraghavan a ardent devotee of Lord Ayyappa & visiting Sabarimalai since 1984 (2-3 times a year) and settled in Bangalore near Jalahalli Sri Ayyappan Temple. My earnest request for the high tech devotees is to restrain visiting Sabarimalai on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays. The temple is regularly open for 5 days in all months. This is to avoid rush at Sabarimalai. For any assistance I may be contacted at 9342959455.
keep it up, u'r greatto help us to perform the rituals in exact hour.

This is a very useful blog.
Can any one let me know whether "Swamy Ayyappa Temple" in sabarimala wil be opened or closed during Solar and Lunar eclipses.
Are all the days listed here are the days I could do "darshan" ? Specifically, during the March 19-29 Sabarimala annual festival, is the temple open to the public for darshan?
thank you so much, this calendar is very helpful.
Oh yes when ever the temple is open you can have darshan. The temple is open for darshan to public on these days.
