Neyyabhishekom
The Atma attains liberation on being absorbed by the supreme soul according to Hindu mythology. The jeevatma is ghee and the paramatma is Lord Ayyappa. Once the ghee is removed from the coconut, then the coconut symbolizes Jadam or dead body. This is the reason why the coconut is then offered in the huge Aazhi or fire located below the steps leading to the sanctum sanctorum. During the pilgrimage season the Neyyabhishekam begins early at 04.15 am in the morning and continues till 11.30 pm at night. Every year the temple authorities make elaborate arrangements for the pilgrims to perform Neyyabhishekam.
