Chaitra (spring) Navaratri is the invocation and celebration of Mother Divine, one of the most important observations in the Himalayan Yoga tradition. She, Shakti “… by whom this whole world, whole universe is upheld and sustained…” Swami Veda

You are invited to join us for nine evenings to hear the audio recording of Lalita Sahasranama by Swami Veda. This special recording is a contemplation and meditation in itself; each of the thousand names of Mother Divine is a mantra and Swami Veda’s recitation is a wonderful experience of creative dynamic energy.

All nine sessions will be zoomed.

Immortal She is, pervading all things that grow downward and all things that extend upwards. It is by Her brilliance and light that the darkness of ignorance vanishes. She, Devi, the Divine One who has expounded Herself as the very being of the universe and the custodian. Mother Deity, the Divine Mother, Shri who is the refuge of all forms, of all thoughts and sentiments – all Her expressions in the power of will, power of knowledge, power of creativity – Lalita, the tender one, the gentle one, Tripura Sundari, the Beauty of the Three Realms, She whose name is beauty. She, who has revealed Herself in Creation, through the powers of Shree. (The meaning of this event for which Sadhakas celebrate)
