FIRST TIME EVER Karthik Purnima Spl ANNABHISHEKAM What are the symbolic aspects of rice in AnnaAbhishekam? Rice in Anna Abhishekam represents the life-giving force and the interconnectedness of all elements. As rice develops from seed to grain, it absorbs the essence of earth, water, sunlight, and air, symbolizing a divine journey that sustains all beings. This offering to Lord Shiva underscores rice’s sacred place in the cycle of life and emphasizes the belief that the mind and spirit are shaped by the purity of what one consumes. Covering the Shiva Lingam with rice during the ritual reflects reverence for the sustenance that nurtures both body and soul. Annaabhishekam is believed to provide following benefits: Abundance of food  Enhanced memory power  Prosperity in agriculture  Business prosperity  Offer Sankalpa Online/Offline : vdst.in/kma 15th Nov | 5.30 PM Devi Hall, Gurukul, Bangalore Join Group vdst.in/whatsapp Vaidic Dharma Sansthan  📞953818684
