Every year, Devi Mahamariamman observes a 35-day detoxification process known as Pacchai Pattini Vratham. In Samayapuram, for four weeks, Devi will receive only selected Naivedyams (food offerings). This restricted diet is aimed at achieving complete purification of the body and mind. By observing this Pacchai Pattini Vratham, we create the space for Paramashiva and Paramashivashakti to manifest in our bodies, preparing us for immortality itself.
In the words of THE SPH BHAGAVAN SRI NITHYANANDA PARAMASHIVAM, ‘Langanam Parama Aushadam’ — Fasting is the ultimate medicine. Fasting not only detoxifies our body and mind but also has the power to digest our Karmas, bringing us a powerful conscious breakthrough.
