While Swamiji is seen seated on the rock, Maheshwara puja is offered. This puja is an offering of a meal to sannyasis and brahmacharis , who are believed to be channels of Existence. By offering to them, one offers to the departed souls of their near and dear ones. It is believed that it will reach them through these channels of Existence. Here, Sri Nithya Bairavananda, administrative head of the entire Tamilnadu operations, offers this puja to his late Mother Unnamalai Ammal.
