Erection of the Arunachaleswara Nama Koti Stupa
Before proceeding, it's important to recognize the spiritual importance of the project:

• Arunachaleswara (Lord Shiva): Arunachaleswara is the form of Lord Shiva worshiped at the Arunachaleswarar Temple in Arunachalam. The Arunachala Hill is considered a sacred manifestation of Shiva himself. This makes the location particularly special for any divine activity, as it's believed that Lord Shiva is present in the very hill and the temple.
• Amma (Goddess Parvati): Goddess Parvathi represents the divine feminine energy and is worshiped alongside Lord Shiva in temples. Her presence in the shrine along with Arunachaleswara will symbolize the harmonious balance of the divine masculine and feminine energies, which is central to Hindu cosmology.
•Nama Koti Stupa: The "Nama Koti" typically refers to chanting or repeating the divine name of the Lord a huge, often symbolic number times.
• Erecting a Nama Koti Stupa is a highly auspicious act meant to invite spiritual blessings and invoke the divine presence in the area. The stupa could become a focal point for meditation, chanting, and prayer.

The 35-feet Arunachaleswara Nama Koti Stupa will be a grand structure. Here are some key considerations for the stupa:
•Design and Architecture: The ensured design of the stupa is in line with traditional architecture principles, which govern the alignment and construction of sacred spaces. The stupa can represent Lord Shiva's symbolism
•Materials and Craftsmanship: The stupa should be constructed using durable materials that also reflect the sanctity of the site.
•Positioning and Alignment: The stupa is positioning in the spiritually auspicious location within the premises that is Kubera Aiswarya Nagar, Near Kubera Lingam of Arunachalam, enhancing the divine energy of the place.

3. Pancha Harati (Five Offerings or Five Aartis)
The Pancha Harati is a form of ritual that involves the offering of light to the deity, accompanied by prayers and aarti songs. This can be a central ritual in honouring the Arunachaleswara Nama Koti Stupa and the divine abode.
• Five Aartis (Haratis): Pancha Harati traditionally involves five aartis (or five sets of offerings) made to the deity. These may be organized at specific times, such as:
•Morning Aarti (to signify the beginning of the day and to invoke the divine blessings for a prosperous day).
•Noon Aarti (a midday offering that connects to the sun’s power and offers strength for the rest of the day).
•Evening Aarti (to thank the deity for the day’s blessings and to ask for protection through the night).
•Night Aarti (to celebrate the divine presence and express gratitude at the close of the day).
• Special Aarti for the Stupa (for the Arunachaleswara Nama Koti Stupa, which could be a part of a special invocation on auspicious days).

These also may be Surya Aarti, Chandra Aarti, Nakshatra Aarti, Prudvi Aarti and Aakasa Aarti. It also represents the five elements of the nature and (or) five personifications of our body.
•Lighting of Lamps: Offerings of light (often in the form of ghee lamps) are an integral part of the Pancha Harati ritual. The lights represent the dispelling of darkness (ignorance) and the illumination of the divine presence.
•Chanting Mantras: Accompany the Pancha Harati with chanting of mantras or the 1,000 names of Lord Shiva (the Shiva Sahasranama), or the Arunachaleswara Ashtakshara Mantra. This can invoke the energy of Lord Shiva and create a powerful atmosphere of devotion.
• Offerings During the Ritual: In addition to lighting the lamps, flowers, incense, prasad (sacred food offerings), and water as part of the ritual will be offered. The offerings should be done with utmost devotion, purity, and respect.
