With the blessings of Kanchi Maha Swamigal,

we are doing Oil Kainkaryam to ancient Shiva Temples for the past 7 years.
As you may be aware there are lot of old Shiva temples in Tamilnadu
especially in the temple cities of Thiruvarur, Kumbakonam, Kanchipuram, Mayavaram,
around Chennai etc. These temples had been built thousands of years ago. Unfortunately
these temples are finding it difficult even to sustain their basic activities .
So we have taken the initiative, to ensure that we provide oil to light lamps in these
old and dilapidated temples.
Every month, we give oil tins, each 15 ltrs., to around 70 to 80 such ancient and
deserving Shiva temples. We are doing this holy service for the past 7 to 8 years.
This holy service covers temples that are spread throughout Tamil Nadu

OIL KAINKARYAM
Mode Of Operation
We have tied up with oil shops in main towns like Kumbakonam, Sirkali,
Mayavaram,
Trichy, Thiruvarur, Kancheepuram etc. We send money to these oil shops.
We have hired auto drivers in these towns to deliver the oil tins to the temples from the
respective shops.
To raise funds to carry out this holy service, we have formed a Trust by
the name HARIHARA KAINKARYAM TRUST. The main objective of this Trust is as follows:
- Provide oil to ancient Shiva temples which have very less footfall and are in dire need of basic requirements
- Provide financial Support for the poor Gurukals (Priests) who are doing pooja in such temples . These priests earn a meager salary as little as Rs.150 per month.
- Provide educational support to the children of these priests.
Mission
To give Oil to light lamps, to ancient Shiva Temples spread throughout Tamil Nadu. At present we are giving oil to 70 to 80 Shiva temples. Education support for needy children
