Ashta
Naaga Garudar Homam
Garuda
is the Pakshi Raja, the king of birds. Garuda is the vehicle of Lord Vishnu and
also that of Lord Danvantri. He stands guard at the entrance to the main deity.
The Ashta Naga Garuda has been installed at the entrance and is believed to
relieve snake poisons, besides other poisons as well. Being a vehicle himself,
Garuda is believed to protect one from accidents. Symbolically,
the question to introspect on whether the devotee has released the undermining
poisons of the mind before his audience with Lord Danvantri.
