ஓ ஸ்வாமியே சரணம் அய்யப்பா · Swamiye Saranam Ayyappa
A sacred abode consecrated in the Tantric tradition of Sabarimalai, where the same rituals and devotion of the holy hill are lovingly upheld.
Nestled in the heart of Madipakkam, our temple is a spiritual sanctuary for the devotees of Lord Sri Ayyappan. Every ritual, prayer and offering here echoes the sanctity of Sabarimalai, following the very same procedures ordained by the hereditary Thanthiris of Chengannur "Thazhamon Madom".
Whether you come seeking peace, blessings or a moment of stillness, the doors of the Lord are always open to you. Devotees gather through the year for daily poojas, festivals and the grand Kumbhabhishegham celebrations.
This temple was consecrated on 7th June 1978 (07‑06‑1978) in the Tantric procedure, by the Thanthiri of Sabarimalai, Chengannur "Thazhamon Madom" Brahmashri Neelakantaru Thanthiri.
It is noteworthy that the procedures and rituals followed in this temple are the very same as those observed at Sabarimalai — a rare and cherished blessing for the devotees of Madipakkam.
On Friday, the 11th of April 2025, the Punar‑Uddhaarana Ashtabandhana Maha Kumbhabhishegham was performed to Lord Sri Ayyappan by the Golden Hands of "Thazhamon Madom" Brahmashri Mahesh Thanthiri, the hereditary priests of Sabarimalai.
It is of great significance that Brahmashri Mohanaru Thanthiri of Chengannur "Thazhamon Madom" is indeed the Thanthiri for our Madipakkam Sri Ayyappan Temple as well.
Moments of devotion, festivity and grace from our temple.
