The recently concluded 'Devaprasanam' at Padmanabhaswamy temple to ascertain 'divine will' through astrological examination, revealed that the shrine has some integral connections with Nepal as 'salagramam' stones from the Ghandaki river were used to make the presiding deity's idol. The Travancore
royal house, for which Sree Padmanabha is the family deity, also has associations with the Pasupathinath temple and the erstwhile Nepal royal family.
The main astrologer of the panel Madhur Narayana Ranga Bhat told that in the past some rituals used to be conducted in the temple to commemorate this association. But over the years these ceremonies have not been performed resulting in displeasure of the Lord. The ritual had ascertained that huge riches kept in the shrine's vaults should not be moved out or alienated. The astrologers also claimed there were theft threats to the temple wealth, signalling the need for further increasing its security. The 'Devaprasanam' also cautioned against opening one of the yet to be examined vaults as it is below the sanctum sanatorium, where the idol of Lord Vishnu in reclining posture stands, Bhat said.
