The hottest part of the year at Arunachala comes around May and early June and is known as Agni Nakshatram ("fiery star") or Kathiri Veyyil. This year the period ran from Sunday May 5, 2014 and will end tomorrow Wednesday 28 May, 2014.
For an earlier posting with photos of Thara Abhishekam go to this link here.
During this period Abhishekam is performed during which water is held in an overhead container and constantly drips, drop by drop unto the Shiva Lingam.
See below for the schedule of functions celebrating the end of this “fiery period.”
