annadānam , the offering of food, is a sacred tradition, particularly prominent during festivals like guru pūrṇimā . On guru pūrṇimā, which falls on the full moon in the month of āṣāḍa (around July), many people donate food, especially rice or other grains, to symbolize abundance and ensure a steady supply of food. It’s considered a way to honor spiritual teachers and support those on the path of self-discovery.
We sincerely appreciate your support of events like guru pūrṇimā at our temple. Your sponsorship goes a long way in keeping our culture alive and supporting our community.
