The Maha Rudra Yajna held at Madhuvanam had another unique feature. Instead of Kalasas (urn filled with water from rivers) it was Agni that was worshipped in the form of lamps lighted from the sanctum sanctorum of eleven major Siva temples in Kerala,and brought to Madhuvanam in a procession on the eve of the Yajna.
Each day for the Rudra homa, fire was transferred from each Jyoti lamp which ended in Vasaordhaara (uninterrupted offering of clarified butter with Chamaka chant).
All the jyothies were merged into Poornahuthy in the end.
