Sakthi Malai,a beaded garland with a blessed dollar coin, involves Sakthis (devotees of Amma) putting the Sakthi Malai around their neck in their Mandrams, fasting and doing penance for 3-5 days. They then travel to the Siddhar Peedam and complete the rituals by performing Abishegam (milk anointment) to the Swayambu.

Amma, in HerOracle has said, “Those who sincerely think of ME and pray to ME, by wearing Sakthi Malai, observe fasting, do Angapradhakshanam (perambulating the Sakthi Peedam by physically rolling on the ground) at the Siddhar Peedam and completely surrender themselves to ME, will find their wishes fulfilled and problems solved.”Hundreds and thousands of devotees, and their families have benefited wearing Sakthi Malai and carrying Irumudi.
