Significance
An offering of lamps as an expression of gratitude for Devi’s Grace, Vilakku Seva brings auspiciousness and overall wellbeing to the family.
Her Grace can also remove obstacles in one’s quest for growth and transformation.
Ritual Details
Vilakku Seva can be offered by individuals, families, or groups.
It is offered once daily, in the evening.
Devotees who are unable to personally come and make the offering can give the names and nakshatras (birth stars) of up to four family members, which will be written on a palm leaf and placed at Devi’s feet for blessings. The offering will be made on their behalf and the prasadam can be sent upon request (within India).
