अय्यप्प मण्डल पूजाAyyappa Mandala Puja

Also called Sabarimala Season · Mandala Kalam · Makaravilakku

The forty-one-day vratam kept before the climb to Sabarimala — black or blue worn, the mālā taken, and the irumudi carried up.

When it falls

The forty-one days of the maṇḍala, from the first of Vṛścika to Maṇḍala Pūjā, and on to Makaravilakku in Makara.

The tithi, not a date — the calendar date is a pañchāṅga reckoning and differs by region. Check your local pañchāṅga for this year.

The Reading

Harivarāsanam, sung as the doors close each night, with the Ayyappa Aṣṭottaram and the Śāstā stotras through the vratam.
