The flag is hoisted


Here are a few pictures of the Kodiyetram ceremony. 









On the Day 2 (March 11) of the Panguni Festival the chief priests of Sri Kapali Temple hoisted the flag (kodiyetram) at the kodi maram in front of Sri Kapaleeswarar Sannadhi.

The deities (panchamurthi) of  Sri Somaskandar, Goddess Karpagambal, Sri Vinayagar and Sri Chandikeshwarar were placed on the stage of navaratri mandapam facing the kodi maram.

Hundreds of devotees gathered for the event.

 R. Revathy and G. Mangai say, " we came rushing all the way from Vadapalani to see the kodiyetram. We didn't want to miss the auspicious moment."

Today, many devotees from nearby districts have come and stayed in Mylapore to witness the 10-day Panguni Festival.

Later, the five deities will be taken in a procession around the mada streets.
