Who Are You, Swami?

Tell us a little about yourself so we can personalise your pilgrimage plan.

Vratham Status

The 41-day Deeksha (Vratham) is the spiritual foundation of the Sabarimala pilgrimage. Have you begun yours?

What is the Vratham?

The 41-day Deeksha involves wearing black attire and a sacred mala, following a vegetarian diet, practising celibacy, and daily prayers. It purifies the devotee to receive Lord Ayyappa's darshan.
