🌸 Kanda Shasti at VelMont – Where Faith Meets Cosmic Energy

Today October 26, 2025, the sacred hills of VelMont were filled with divine vibration, devotion, and grace. The sun rose gently over the open landscape, bathing the hills in golden light, as devotees gathered in deep faith to celebrate Kanda Shasti, the triumph of Lord Murugan over negativity and ignorance.

From the early morning hours, the air itself seemed alive — infused with the resonance of Kanda Shasti Kavasam. Devotees chanted this powerful hymn 36 times, their voices merging into a single current of prayer that rippled through the hills. Each chant was more than a sound; it was energy released into the universe — transforming the open space of VelMont into a living field of Cosmic Energy.

Those who were present felt it — an invisible yet undeniable pulse that seemed to connect heaven and earth.

Power of Vel - symbol of victory and grace

The Power of the Vel – Symbol of Victory and Grace

The Vel, held by Lord Murugan, is more than a weapon — it is the light of wisdom, piercing through darkness and illusion. It represents clarity, protection, and divine strength that destroys the inner asuras — doubt, fear, and ego.

During the Vel Abishegam, as milk and water flowed over the sacred Vel, devotees could feel the blessings radiating outward — purifying minds and hearts. And this year marked a special milestone — for the first time at VelMont, 25 devotees performed the Vel Pooja, each receiving a sacred Vel to take home.

This was not just a ritual; it was a spiritual initiation. The Vel now travels with them — into their homes, their work, their lives — a reminder that wherever Murugan’s Vel resides, victory, protection, and divine clarity will follow.

VelMont – The Open Space of Divinity

VelMont is more than a temple — it is an open-space experience of divinity. Here, there are no walls between you and the sky. The breeze carries the fragrance of devotion, the hills echo with chants, and every element of nature participates in prayer.

In this sacred openness, one feels the essence of Lord Murugan — freedom, courage, and boundless love. The open sky becomes your temple ceiling, and the earth beneath your feet becomes the sacred floor of worship.

At VelMont, devotion doesn’t end with rituals — it expands into an experience of oneness with creation itself.

Prasadam and Community – The Joy of Sharing

After the rituals, the celebration continued with Paalkudam procession and a heartwarming feast. Devotees shared variety rice and enjoyed Kuli Paniyaram from a live stall — simple yet divine prasadam that brought smiles and a sense of togetherness.

Every grain of prasadam here carries prayer. Every smile shared is part of worship.
