Ettara Yogam : ウィキペディア英語版 | Ettara Yogam The ''Ettara Yogam'' or the Council of Eight and a Half was a body of Trustees of the Sri Padmanabhaswamy Temple which is the richest and most well endowed temples in the world now, situated in Thiruvananthapuram, Travancore and religiously most important to the Maharajahs of Travancore. ==Origin== The Ettara Yogam was formed in the year 1045 A.D.〔History of Travancore by Shungunny Menon〕 and it is presided over by the Pushpanjali Swamiyars of Naduvil Madhom or Munchira Madhom to this day. The Pushpanjali Swamiyar and the six main Potties had one vote each in deciding the matters of the Temple. Besides them, the Maharajah of Venad or Travancore, the Srikaryathu Potti and the Karanavar of the Palliyadi family (the only Nair representative) had half votes each. The present Karanavar is Srikarnam Palliyadi A.E. Ramakrishna Kurup of Azhakath Bungalow, Adoor. The fact that the Maharajah was powerless in the Temple affairs was very important because the temple possessed vast landed areas and wealth, which owing to his nominal position, gave immense power to the eight members and their confederates.
