About Ainavilli Temple Homam Timings
Homam, also known as Homa or Havan, is a sacred fire ritual in Hindu tradition where offerings are made into a holy fire to seek divine blessings, cleanse the surroundings, and remove negative energies. It’s a deeply spiritual practice that brings peace and positivity.

It is mentioned in the 5th chapter of “Sri Pada Sri Vallabha Charitra” by Sankara Battu.
