World Ayyappa Seva Trust (WAST INC.), a non-profit public charity organization, was founded by honorable Guruswami Parthasaradhi Pillai in 1988. Today, WAST has evolved to become the largest Ayyappa devotee organization in the world only because of its utmost devotion, dedication, authentic style of poojas and Bhajans and un-matched charitable services. Over 30 years, Guruswami has been leading Lord Ayyappa bhajans across the nation, taking pilgrims from U.S to Sabarimala, conducting Karkkidaka vavu bali, Hindu Funeral services, Hindu Weddings and hosting Sapthahams. The most important WAST’s accomplishments include introduction of Lord Ayyappa Rituals, Mandala Pooja, Ramayayan and Bhagvatha chanting, Vishnu and Lalitha Sahsranamam and Makara Sankranthi.
