The 74th annual mastakasbhisheka to the statue of Gomateshwara at Gommatagiri on the outskirts of Mysuru took place on Sunday, November 26, amidst religious fervour and devotion.
The five-metre-tall statue, perched atop a hillock overlooking the backwaters of the KRS, came alive in different hues as the anointment unfolded late in the afternoon amidst a sea of devotees who were filled with ecstasy at the changing colours of Gomateshwara.
Prominent seers belonging to the Jain sect and representing various mutts were present and they included Devendra Keerti Bhattarakaswami, Bhuvanakeerti Bhattaraka Swami, Siddantakeerti Bhattarakaswami, and others.
