His Holiness Pujyashri Shankara Vijayendra
His Holiness Pujyashri Shankara Vijayendra Saraswathi Shankaracharya Swamigal was informed that the Hindu Cultural Society (HCS) Trust Board, Stoke-On-Trent, Staffordshire, UK will be performing Idols installation and Puja at its temple from April 19 to April 21, 2025 after having completed the renovation of the Temple building as per our Shastras and about the request for HH Message of Blessings to be published in the Souvenir, planning to be released commemorating with this occasion. His Holiness was also informed about the planning to consecrate new statues of Sri Venkateswara Swamy, Sri Lakshmi Maata, Ganesha, Kartikeya, Maa Durga, Shiva Lingam, Nandi Bhagwan, Garuda Alvar, Navgrahas and Ayyappa Swamy and also about the expansion plan to consecrate Dwajasthambam and Bali Peetam.
His Holiness is pleased to note about the various activities being undertaken in the Temple with the highly laudable objective of serving God by serving Humanity since its inception and also pleased to note that all the rituals would be performed as per the Vedic Sastras. The Dwajasthambam, an important feature of Hindu Temple, symbolises righteousness and is predominantly used during Brahmotsavam rituals and other important Temple Utsavams.
It is well known that Hindu Temple is a manifestation of religion, culture and heritage and divine abode of the omnipresent Bhagavan. Devotees attain peace and happiness in their hearts through worship and prayers in the temples and achieve spiritual progress. Performing Idols consecration and other rituals as per the Sastric Dictums rejuvenates the spiritual energy of the deities and also develops positivity in places around them.
His Holiness with divine benedictions to Maha Tirupra Sundari Sametha Sri Chandra Mouleeswarar conveys blessings for the successful performance of the Idols consecration and connected Puja Rituals and in continuation of all the activities in the Temple and also conveys blessings to all the devotees and their families involved in all the noble activities at the Temple.
“We are proud to have received certification for our temple activities, ensuring all rituals and services are performed in accordance with Vedic principles.”
