Sri Ponds Ramani Mama talks about Annaabhishegam at Gangaikonda Cholapuram. He shares his experience with MahaPeriyava on those lines…
Mama recollects Periyava narrating a historic incident on the 56th Sankaracharya of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam’s stay at Udayarpalayam and how Udayarpalayam Zamindar safe guarded and took care of Sri Matam during crisis. As a mark of Krithagnai, Periyava ordained Annaabhishegam and Annadhaanam to be performed at Gangaikonda Cholapuram.
Today, Annaabhishegam at Gangaikonda Cholapuram is being celebrated like a Brahmotsavam year after year.

Namaste Shivaraman Sir
Hope you are doing good
Sir,
Today early morning I got a dream in which I saw Mahaperiyava sitting in a corner and for some reason, I suggest doing kanakabhishekam to Mahaperiyava and Pudhu Periyava ask me as to what am saying since I had spoken in Telugu language.
Immediately I also tell him that if we do abhishekam to Mahaperiyava with rice and when that rice is consumed by devotee’s as Prasadam, their health will be good.
Pudu Periyava will be very !!!!!! Happy and approves my thought.
The reason I am sharing my dream is that I beleive this dream is trying to convey me some message.
Don’t know what?
If there is any mistake in typing , pls forgive me.
Regards
Ragini Yathiraju
You know, this is the time for *annabhishegam* your dream is for annabhishegam for Sri MahaPeriyava. You are BLESSED
We all know Periyava’s efforts in reinstating annabhishekam at Gangaikonda cholapuram. Although it was taking place since time immemorial in several kshetrams, only after Periyava reinitiated it, the event assumed great proportions and is being performed in a grand scale. This event until recent was mostly celebrated in temples in TN and has now spread to other neighboring regions. Small temples within the locality of Malleshwaram, Bangalore, conducted this annabhishekam this year on a grand scale, taking cue from the performance in TN. The organisers in these temples may not be aware of Periyava’s role in this event, and surely He did all this only with loka kshemam in mind and not even a tinge of recognition for Himself, yet the very fact that this event is spreading to many regions is evidence of His sathya sankalpam!!!!
