In the sacred shrine at Vaaniyampadi, Goddess Kalaivani Sri Saraswati Devi incarnated as a woman who cooked for Lord Shiva. On each Punarvasu star day and Full Moon day, she performed an abhishekham to Lord Shiva and offered white flowers to Goddess Saraswati. Those born under Punarvasu nakshatra should feed a hungry person and offer prayers to Sri Annpoornai Devi every day.
They can offer the food directly to the people or through charities. In addition, these people can offer food to unannounced guests or travelers. This includes offering food to ancestors and pilgrims. Feeding ancestors allows the next generation to prosper and is a good way to prevent family problems.
Punarvasu day is a time of growth and is also a powerful day for teachers to walk around the temple at Vaaniyampadi, from left to right. They can also perform an abhishekham for Lord Sri Adhidheeswarar and Goddess Sri Saraswati. Teachers and those in hotel management should offer prayers for increasing potential in their careers. Offering food on Punarvasu days, Pradosham days, Shivaratri and Wednesdays will benefit the progress of children in education.
