Kiraathamurthy or Vettakkorumakan (Son of Lord Shiva as Hunter) is believed to bring peace of mind and resolve mental problems. The deity is associated with seeking divine intervention and
gaining blessings. The deity especially blesses those doing hard work similar to hunting. He removes the obstacles in one’s life and brings prosperity as believed by people of
Kerala. REEP Foundation is glad to bring this deity to Karnataka especially for the the prosperity of farmers and for the entire people of Karnataka as a whole
The highlight of the ritual is the breaking of 24001 Coconuts at one stretch of 8-10 hrs , by a single priest after proper fasting and dedication to God. We have planned for
cultural programs and other rituals to benefit the public visiting the event. This is being executed in cooperation with the Management Committee of , Kakkad Maha Ganapathy
