Abhishekam is a Sanskrit word for the sacred bath that is performed to the idol of the main presiding deity Sri Arulmehu Angalaparameswari Amman. Based on ancient Hindu spiritual customs, this is performed every day. Devotees virtually make a beeline for this Seva because watching the priests bathe the idol is the most emancipating of experiences, given that the belief of the devout that the idol is actually a manifestation of the Supreme Divine being Herself and not just a manually carved idol.
