PALANI-UJJAIN KARTHIKEYA MAHA YAGAM
The LMRK Mission came into inception on the auspicious day of Shashti, 1st of May 2017, having its registered headquarters at Thrissur, India. It was founded by Shri Rejith Kumar under the divine direction of Lord Muruga after spiritual austerities were performed for it in Palani. Since then more than 2000 people from across the world in 15 countries have felt drawn to the divine cause and joined the LMRK Mission to carry out duties at a global scale.
As per Lord Muruga’s revelation to Shri Rejith Kumar these are ancient souls having Karthika energies. They had once lived during the Kumari Kandam period. In 2013 with the advent of Karthika energies, these ancient souls were spiritually awakened through the grace of Lord Muruga to become his army of Light warriors. They are to carry out worldwide duties to restore the energies of Kumari Kandam. This will lay the foundation for a golden era of prosperity and peace where Sanathana dharma will reign supreme in the world under the direction of the King of Kumari Kandam – the Guru of All Siddhas – our benevolent Lord Muruga. The members who had joined the LMRK Mission since then have been performing the divine duties of Lord Muruga under the leadership of the first representative of Kumari Kandam – Shri Rejith Kumar.
In 2021, Lord Muruga directed Shri Rejith Kumar and the LMRK Mission to perform a series of yagams based on the Pancha Bhoota elements (earth, water, air, space, and fire) and the TIME dimension. The recent most duty performed was the 4th yagam based on the ‘Space’ element – the Palani-Ujjain Karthikeya Maha Yagam in Ujjain.

Palani-Ujjain Karthikeya Maha Yagam
It was held on the 15th of March 2024 (Sobakrith Year, 2nd day of the Tamil month Panguni, Krithika Star, Sashti Thithi) in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, India. The yagam was performed in sacred Tamil based on the Saiva Tirumurais by Sri Vamadeva Nata Saravana Sivam and his team from Thanjavur.
Shri Rejith Kumar began the spiritual austerities by lighting the lamp and performing aarthi and an archana of flowers to the Jyoti (flame) while the maha-mantra ‘Arut Perum Jyothi…. Arut Perum Jyothi…. Thani Perum Karunai… Arut Perum Jyothi’ was being chanted by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam. The divine in formless state as a Jyoti was worshipped by Shri Rejith Kumar. A conch was blown by a LMRK Member to mark the end of Jyoti Vazhipadu.
Lord Vinayaka’s blessings and protection were sought for the successful completion of the yagam and the well-being of those present during the yagam. The flowers meant for Lord Vinayaka’s worship were reverentially touched by those present before they were offered to Him in worship. An aarthi was offered to Him. Vibuthi (sacred ash) and Kunkumam (Vermillion) were given to everyone after His worship.
Thirukudam Vazhipadu (Kalasa Pooja) was performed to invoke Lord Muruga’s energy presence in the Thirukudams (sacred pots having divinely energised water).To the invoked energy presence of Lord Muruga in the 6 Thirukudams (these symbolically represent the 6 faces of Lord Muruga) prayers and praises in the form of potris were offered while the archana was being done. Aarthi was then performed to the Thirukudams amidst heartfelt aroharas to Lord Muruga.
Sri Nata Saravana Sivam requested everyone to lovingly and reverentially invite Lord Palani Muruga as the Lord would respond only to the earnest call of his devotees. He guided everyone in a prayer to invite Lord Palani Muruga (whose energy presence was invoked in the 6 Thirukudams) to be present at the yagam taking place in Aastha Gurukul, Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, India belonging to Asia continent of this Universe (from 10.15 AM to 1 PM).
Prayers were made to Lord Shiva to invoke his blessings for the yagam. Meanwhile, Shri Rejith Kumar was given a warm welcome by Shri Gopal Menaria (Founder of Aastha Gurukul) amidst the auspicious beating of the drums with LMRK Members showering him lovingly with flower petals. He greeted the LMRK Members and guests before taking his place at the yagam.
Sri Nata Saravana Sivam who performed the yagam sought the blessings of the 27 Nakshatras, Lord Muruga, and Lord Mahakaleshwar for the Palani-Ujjain Karthikeya Maha Yagam held in Aastha Gurukul, Ujjain and requested the protection of the divine for the successful completion of the yagam.
Shri Rejith Kumar made the sankalpam on behalf of the LMRK Members, and others present during the yagam to seek the blessings of Lord Muruga for world welfare. Aroharas were offered to Lord Muruga by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam followed by those present. The Saiva Tirumarais were chanted and prayers to Sri Ramalinga Swamigal (Vallalar Siddhar) were offered during the yagam.
Shri Rejith Kumar made the sankalpam to Lord Muruga for our country Bharat to become the Vishwa Guru and for the well-being of the entire world. Aroharas were chanted and prayers were first offered to invoke the divine presence of Parivara devatas (celestial beings) and then for – the King of Kings – Lord Muruga at the yagam.
Shri Rejith Kumar lit the lamp placed near the Thirukudams and offered his prayers (Thiru Vilakku Vazhipadu). The yagam was lit with camphor by the priests at the shatkona-shaped yagashala amidst the resounding and vibrant sound of damaru (udukai) and cymbals.
Prayers were offered to receive blessings of the compassionate Lord Vinayaka (Ganapati) for the removal of obstacles, to give wisdom by removing Maya (worldly illusion), and to lead the devotees to spiritual enlightenment. Shri Rejith Kumar offered his prayers to Lord Vinayaka to seek his blessings for the yagam.
LMRK Members had the precious opportunity to directly participate by touching the sacred wooden sticks before they were offered in the yagam. The abridged version of Sri Kantha Puranam composed by Sri Kumaraguru Pamban Swamigal – a succinct 120 verses on the birth of Lord Muruga, His description, Soora Samharam, His marriage to His divine consorts Devi Devanai and Devi Valli, and the way he protects his devotees from all directions, benefits one would accrue by praying to Lord Muruga was recited and its meaning explained by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam to those present during the yagam.
Shri Rejith Kumar and the LMRK Members handed over the yagam-related offerings to the priest. The sacred grains for the Navagrahas were then offered in the yagam. Sri Nata Saravana Sivam and those present chanted the sadakshara mantra “Om Saravana Bhava” 54 times before the Purnahuti. This was followed by heartfelt aroharas to Lord Palani Muruga by those present. Kolaru Pathigam composed in praise of Lord Shiva to remove the maleffects of the Navagrahas by Saint Thirugnanasambandhar was sung by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam’s team. Silver, Gold, Navaratnas (semi-precious stones) were offered by Shri Rejith Kumar at the yagam. The playing of the cymbals and damaru during this auspicious moment raised the spiritual atmosphere to a heightened level. Aarthi was shown by the priests at the yagam after the offerings were made at the yagam.
Purnahuti: A red and gold silk saree soaked in ghee was offered in the yagam. Six types of purnahutis in red cloth bundles were offered by 6 priests reverentially to the six holy faces of Lord Muruga amidst chanting of potris and aroharas to Lord Muruga. The triumphant blowing of the conch by an LMRK Member marked the successful completion of the purnahuti.
Thirukudam Worship: Flowers were then taken by 6 priests from the yagam and reverentially offered to the 6 Thirukudams. Incense and Aarthi were shown to Lord Muruga’s energy essence in the Thirukudams by the 6 priests. Archana was done to the Thirukudams (Kalash) while potris in praise of Lord Muruga were chanted by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam and Team. Deeparadhana was done by the priests to the Thirukudams amidst the blowing of the conch and playing of the damaru and cymbals. Shri Rejith Kumar offered his prayers while the deeparadhana was performed by the priest to the Thirukudams and shown to LMRK Members who were eagerly waiting for its blessings. The sacred ash from the yagam was distributed to everyone present.
Abhisegham: The Abhisegham started with an aarthi to Lord Palani Muruga. The sacred holy water from the Thirukudams was used to bathe Lord Palani Muruga and His Vel with sacred offerings like milk, curd, turmeric, sandalwood paste, panchamritam, tender coconut water, honey, vibuthi, sugarcane juice, rose water, thirumanajana theertham from Palani, etc. amidst the beating of the drums and cymbals. An Archana of rose petals was lovingly performed to Lord Muruga and His Vel amidst the resonant sounds of the conch, damaru, and cymbals. A thilak was applied to Lord Palani Muruga and His Vel followed by an aarthi. Shri Rejith Kumar carried the Thirukudams along with Sri Nata Saravana Sivam and his team. Prayers and Archana were done for the Thirukudams. The garlands from the Thirukudams were placed on Lord Palani Muruga, His Vel, and Sengol (sceptre). Abhisegham for Lord Muruga, His Vel and Sengol was completed with the sacred water from the Thirukudams. This ritual is symbolic of the divine energies of Lord Muruga from the Thirukudams being transferred to Lord Palani Muruga’s Moorthy, His Vel, and Sengol. The Abhisegham ritual concluded with an aarthi. The sacred water left in the Thirukudams was sprinkled on Shri Rejith Kumar and the LMRK Members.
Shri Rejith Kumar asked everyone to pray to Lord Muruga while the alankaram was being done. He then gave a brief talk about the purpose of the yagam and the blessings that would actualize after its successful completion. He mentioned that this was the 4th of the Pancha Bhootha yagams performed by the LMRK Mission under the divine direction of Lord Muruga. He spoke about the previous yagams and their respective purposes. He spoke about the significance of the ancient city of Ujjain and its legendary ruler Maharaja Vikramaditya. He remarked that we are all selected souls who have come together to do Lord Muruga’s duty. Shri Rejith Kumar thanked Master Cham and his team from Singapore who had graced the yagam with their august presence. Shri Rejith Kumar concluded by praying that all may get Lord Muruga’s blessings…. and cried out heartfelt aroharas –
“Palani Muruganukku Arohara!
Gnana Dhandayudhapanikku Arohara!
Veera Vel Muruganukku Arohara!
Jai Palani Aandava!!!”.
After the alankaram of Lord Palani Muruga sodasha upacharam was performed to Him followed by Archana and Mahadeepardhana.
Sri Nata Saravana Sivam chanted potris and verses from the 12 Saiva thirumurais, Abhirami Andhadhi, and Thiruppugazh, for the well-being of those present as Archana was being done to Lord Palani Muruga. It concluded with an Archana by Shri Rejith Kumar on behalf of the LMRK Mission. The Maha Deeparadhana was performed by Sri Nata Saravana Sivam.
Sri Nata Saravana Sivam honoured Shri Rejith Kumar with the decorated turban kept at the yagam. He was then given the yagam-blessed Indian National Flag and the LMRK flag. Loud heartfelt cries of aroharas by those present in unison connected them as one with their beloved ever-compassionate Lord Muruga. It deeply touched the hearts of those physically present and those gratefully watching it through the live telecast through several media channels. It was indeed a history-changing emotionally charged moment to remember for the rest of their lives.
Shri Rejith Kumar later addressed the press and said “It is an organisation related to Lord Karthikeya (Muruga). The yagam has been done in Ujjain as it is a powerful place ruled by Maharaja Viktamaditya. It was also the Zero Time Zone of the ancient world. It is a powerful time now for Bharat. The Zero Time Zone will be changed to Ujjain with the blessings of Lord Muruga. Maharaja Vikramaditya powerfully ruled over a worldwide empire from here. This is why Ujjain is such a powerful soil (place). It is also the land of Lord Mahakaleshwar. Hence the yagam has been performed here with the blessings of Lord Muruga by the LMRK Mission”.
Mr. Sai Janardhanan spoke similarly in Hindi about the significance of Ujjain and the purpose of the yagam to the press reporters from various media channels.
Those present after having a sumptuous lunch received the Yaga Prasadham and left for their homes with their hearts replete with bliss from the blessings of Lord Muruga.
The yagam was an wonderous opportunity given by Lord Muruga to us LMRK Members to co-create history under His divine direction. As per Lord Muruga’s revelation to Shri Rejith Kumar the successful completion of this duty would effect positive changes in the world and make Bharat a powerful country to whom the world will look upto as a Vishwaguru.
