Kumbha Abhishekam of the Hindu Temple of Delaware

These pictures are from the Kumbha Abhishekam of the Hindu Temple of Delaware which took place from May 22-May 27, 2002. During this auspicious time, the deity is installed in the sanctum sanctorum of the Temple, and is transformed from a sculpted image into a living spirit of the Lord. Over 2500 people attended the 6 day event, and two local priests were joined by other priests from India and across the country.
