Navaratri is the time of year when we celebrate the strong, creative, and abundant aspects of the divine in the form of Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati. In a spiritual sense it is a time reflect on the progress we've made over the past year; the wisdom we've gained (Saraswati), the abundance we've enjoyed (Lakshmi), For nine days our priests start early in the morning with Ganesha puja, Rudra abishekam for Shiva, and pujas for the daily deity (as listed below). Then, from 10 am to 1 pm we have a full scale Lalitha Sahasranam Homam (fire yagya) with all of the traditional ingredients. In the evening the priests assemble for the recitation of Chandi Path; the 700 verse mantra for Chandi, the fierce form of Durga who restores balance and positivity to life in the face of obstacles and negativity. This recitation is followed by Lakshmi Sahasranam to bring wealth and abundance thoughout the next 12 months. On the final day, there will be a special simultaneous performance of the Chandi Path Yagya in both Kanchipuram and Varanasi, linking two of the most spiritually significant places in India in a powerful yagya for the Divine Mother. That evening the Kanchipuram priests will perform an Abishekam Yagya in one of the oldest goddess temples in Kanchipuram, providing a fitting end to a special yaga series. |

Particularly when repeated monthly, these yagyas result in the development of a strong and continued experience of spiritual protection and abundance. When performed on a regular basis, these yagyas are very effective at enhancing and deepening the effects of the other yagyas offered each month. These are Foundation Yagyas because what problems could not be solved if a few obstacles were removed (Ganesha) or we had either more physical resources, or a greater sense of satisfaction and abundance (Lakshmi). For those who participate on a subscription basis, we add a third day; the Navagraha Yagya, at no additional cost. Just click the Subscribe button in the second box. |

A Ganesha yagya is light and enjoyable and results in a sense of support and protection. Long-term participants report that while problems in life don't completely disappear, effective and appropriate solutions arise more readily and are implemented with little resistance. Ganesha is Vigneshwara; the lord of obstacles who removes anything that hinders our progress towards increasing spiritual and material success. This yagya is often combined with Lakshmi and Navagraha foundation yagyas (see above) because the combination of Ganesha and Lakshmi yagyas develop a balance between material and spiritual success which is supplemented by the balancing influence of the Navagraha yagya. |

If you would like more focus on a particular planet(s), then we recommend the Personal or Private Yagyas which will provide several hours of focused pujas, mantra japa, and a fire yagya at modest cost.

Small Personal Yagya (2-3 hours/1 priest) ($75) |

A small personal yagya is similar to a private yagya, the difference being that it is performed by one priest rather than five. This form of yagya is intended to assist individuals who wish to address a specific area of concern either through several consecutive days of yagya or a single day repeated over a number of months. These yagyas can be very powerful because of the focused and dedicated nature of the performance. On your yagya day, your personal priest begins with a series of pujas (Ganesha, Kalasha, and Navagraha) followed by puja and mantra japa for your choice of planet or deity. This is followed by a fire yagya (homam) that repeats the sequence of pujas. For yagya recommendations please feel free to email for a no-charge jyotish analysis. |
