The view from the temple |
Everyday at 8.00 a.m.and 11.00 a.m. Abishekam and special puja are performed. The uniqueness of this temple is that neither camphor is used nor archanai is done by the devotees.
The importance of the temple is that both the presiding deities Lord Muruga (Skanda) and Skanda Mata stand face to face. As a result of this, Lord Muruga possesses immense powers as He faces His Mother.
Lord Muruga is worshipped first followed by a darshan to Devi. Devi possesses eighteen hands and is also known as ‘Ashtadasa’. She has various weapons in each of Her hands.
The navagrahas along with their wife are seen around the sanctum sanctorum. All around the temple are sayings of Sathguru Santhananda painted on wall in Tamil. These are with regard to how humans should behave and live peacefully in the world.
There is also a yagasala where Ganapati homam is performed daily and yagam on auspicious days.
Skandasramam holds shrines of deities : Panchamukha Anjaneya, Panchamukha Ganapati, Swarnakarshanabhairavar (Bhairavar with His Consort), on the outer side of the sanctum sanctorum.
