Namaskaram
 
Adiyen have a question about ishta daivam and kula daivam. I'm not sure if this topic has already been discussed before.
 
Everybody including archagar in our vaishnava sthalam have ishta daivam and kula daivam which will be different from the koil that he is doing archagam. I understand the meaning of ishta daivam, as it is a daivam prefered by the individual. What is kula daivam?
 
Though our single motive is to attain saranagathy to the lord. We have kula deiyvam like hanuman, durgai, etc.,. Is it kula daivam means the god/godesses is workshiped by our family for very longtime? if so on what basis do we classify? Is it based on our ancesters  did archagam/kaikaryam to this god? Can you please explain?
