  1. The Kukke Subramanya Temple, located in Karnataka, is one of the most prominent pilgrimage sites in South India. Dedicated to Lord Subramanya (also known as Kartikeya or Murugan), the temple is revered as a holy place where devotees seek relief from doshas (spiritual afflictions) related to serpents. Among the rituals performed here, the Sarpa Samskara is considered one of the most significant. What Is Sarpa Samskara? Kukke Subramanya Sarpa Samskara is a sacred ritual performed to remove the effects of Sarpa Dosha (Naga Dosha). According to Hindu belief, this dosha occurs when serpents are harmed, killed, or when ancestral sins involving serpents remain unresolved. It is believed that Sarpa Dosha can cause obstacles such as: ● Delay in marriage. ● Infertility or difficulties in childbirth. ● Financial instability.

  2. ● Health problems. By performing the Sarpa Samskara ritual at the Kukke Subramanya Temple, devotees believe they can find relief from these difficulties and attain blessings for prosperity, harmony, and overall well-being. Significance of Kukke Subramanya Temple Kukke Subramanya Temple holds special importance because Lord Subramanya is worshipped here in the form of the Lord of Serpents. According to legend, Vasuki (the serpent king) and other serpents sought refuge under Lord Subramanya at this sacred site. As a result, the temple is regarded as the most powerful place for remedies related to serpent afflictions.

This ritual is recommended for individuals or families facing recurring problems related to marriage, childbirth, or unexplained difficulties. Astrologers often suggest performing Sarpa Samskara if one’s horoscope indicates Sarpa Dosha or Naga Dosha.
