About

A Saligram Sila is a self-manifested stone. It is revered by Lord Vishnu. The process of Saligram Abhishekam includes Saligram Sila bathed in water, milk, yoghurt, ghee, honey and fruit juices. The chanting of Vishnu Sahasranama, or mantras related to the form of Vishnu, is followed by panchamrita abhishekam. The application of sandalwood paste, turmeric and essential oils and the ceremonial cleaning. The devotees have to take a bath, which symbolises purification of mind and body, before worship. Abhishekam water carries positive energy and has the power to cleanse a person's soul and mind. This puja provides you protection from fear. When given to the head or body, it is believed to remove karmic imprints and is thought to be more powerful than pilgrimage water. Although Saligrama worship is performed by ISKCON affiliates at other temples, information on the occult routines or practices at ISKCON Nellore is not made public. Devotees who are interested in local observance, availability, and involvement can speak with the temple directly.

Saligrama Abhishekam begins with achamanam (self-purification) and sankalpam (vow to perform the puja). The Saligrama Shila, representing Lord Vishnu, is placed on a clean silver, copper, or brass plate with a peepal leaf or tulsi base. The abhishekam starts with offering pure water, followed by panchamrit—milk, curd, honey, ghee, and sugar—each poured gently while chanting Vishnu mantras or the Vishnu Sahasranama.After this, substances like sandalwood paste, turmeric, rose water, and sacred herbs may be offered. Devotees also offer tulsi leaves, flowers, incense (dhoop), and light a ghee lamp. After abhishekam, the Saligrama is wiped with a soft cloth and adorned with sandal paste and tulsi. Naivedyam (sattvic food or fruits) is offered, followed by aarti and prarthana.The abhisheka water (charanamrita) is distributed as prasadam. Performing this puja with devotion is believed to grant liberation, peace, and divine blessings from Lord Vishnu.

It is said to destroy sins, remove doshas (especially Pitru and Graha doshas), and grant peace, prosperity, and liberation (moksha).The abhisheka water (charanamrita) is highly potent—it protects from diseases, negative energies, and brings inner strength and clarity. Regular performance of Saligrama Abhishekam enhances devotion, promotes sattvic qualities like compassion and humility, and strengthens one’s connection with Lord Vishnu.
