Malayappa Swami

Initial records state his original name as Malai Kuniya Ninra Perumal (Lord stood on the hill which bowed low to Him)[1] Malayappa Swami is seen in the standing pose and is a replica of the Dhruva Beram (The presiding deity).

During the Sahasra Kalabhishekam puja, abhishekam is performed to Bhoga Srinivasa, Malayappa swami and Visvaksena.

Abhideyaka Abhishekam is performed every year in the month of Jyesta (July) to protect the idols from damage during processions and other events.

After the Kalyānōtsavam (The commemoration of the weddings of Malayappa Swami), and cultural performances, the idols are taken back to the temple.

Pushpa Pallaki festival is celebrated in July at the start of financial year for the lord with the idols taken in procession on a richly decorated floral palanquin.
