Finding my Kula Deivam

Not open for further replies.
Your horoscope will indicate which deity it is. But many people strictly follow specific temple of that deity which your horoscope may not indicate. you can refer to various practices specific for your house hold and names of your forefathers ( like in ancient times, people used to name their children after their kula daivam), and also you can try and find about whether there any specific rituals practiced in your house which you or your immediate relatives never want to ignore etc... which will also suggest a good indication towards your query.

Dear Mr.Prasad,

Thanks for pointing out the search functionality. I did do a search on this. I am not looking for definition of Kula Deivam or what can be a good alternative. I respect your opinion that God is just a symbol etc.,

I am looking specifically for the deity that has been worshipped in my family by the earlier generations since there seems to be no one with credible knowledge currently living in our family.

Even within Brahmins, Iyengars (which I belong to), there are variations in Kula Deivam.

Regards,
Harish
 
kindly send me your horoscope. through thamboola prasnam i will tell you your kula deivam. kindly buy betel for ten rupees and show it to me one by one in the skype.

As per Vaagmiji, who is the resident authority on anything Iyengar, there is no separate Kula Deivam other than Perumal for Iyengars.
As I suggested if you had gone back to the thread and seen other posts, you would have found your answer.
What if Mr. Gopalam comes back and says according to your horoscope your kula deivam is Dakshina moorty, are you going to worship a Shiva?

Kuladeivam worship

Dear Harish,
In Hindu System, there are several deities for various reasons. Kuladeivam is one who was worshipped by your forefathers.In the earlier days, migration was unheard of. So one's Kuladeivam, Method of worship etc., were passed down from Grandfather to Father to Grandson and so on. In fact several families having the same Kuladeivam will assemble on a particular day in a year at the Kuladeivam Temple and worship their Kuladeivam. I heard that Nagaratthars are still following this. Unfortunately, with the migration to other states, other countries etc., worshipping Kuladeivam is slowly disappearing. This is not good and to be avoided at all cost. There are people who will tell you your Kuladeivam by Prasnam. Pl.approach them. Find your Kuladeivam and worship him.

Vaazhga, Valarga, Valamudan Irukka.

Thank you Mr.Ramaswami. Yes, my idea is to find our the Kula Deivam that was actually worshipped by my grandfather/great grandfather etc., and start/continue the worshipping, if possible do Thirumanjanam in the temple and at least visit once annually.

We visit Uppiliappan temple every year, but that is more of a tradition passed to us.

Harish
 
My e mail I.D. is [email protected] . kindly me send your horoscope pdf and date of birth; time of birth; and place of birth. From the thamboola prasna laknam the fourth house lord will be your kula deivam. from sara/ sthira/ upaya rasi i can tell you the distance of your kula deivam from your birth place. and the direction and the condition of the temple.
