WHAT IS INSIDE THE KALASA(KALASAM) OF THE HINDU TEMPLES?
·    Kalasa(Kalasam) is a topmost tomb of the hindu temples
·    This kalasa was sacred and special offerings were being made on  “Kumbavisekham” ie the inaugural day of the temple
·    The kalasa is mostly made up of gold or silver
·    The kalasa contains valuable gems in a small sack ,and a small sack containing nine types of  Indian grains(navadhaniyam)
·    It’s a belief of the hindus ,that these  grains will feed the people in case of  any disaster  occurs,and to educate them ,those grains are the edile grains
