Govindashtakam

Shri Adi Shankara having extra ordinary powers was once travelling by air from Kalady to Shringeri. Even he, who never believed in the worshiping of idols, was forced to come down while crossing Guruvayoor To appease Lord Maha Vishnu,

He worshiped the deity by eight 'Shloka'(Shloka is four lines of poetry) This is now knows as the 'Govindashtakam' He then spent 41 days worshiping Lord Maha Vishnu. The daily rituals of worship during the Mandalam period were conceived by Shri AdiSankara at that time.
