10 Priest Yagyas to ensure the spiritual and material support of previous family generations
on the banks of the Ganges River in Varanasi - the sacred city of Shiva and Parvati, September 20-23

This time of year is a special time for the performance of ancestor yagyas (Pitra Paksha), especially in Varanasi, Northern India. These traditional yagya rituals are performed each year to ensure ongoing spiritual and material support for previous generations of our families.

We are fortunate to have 10 experienced and specially trained pundits who will perform these yagyas for you and your familyin Varanasi, on the banks of the sacred Ganges river, traditionally the home of Shiva and Parvati.

We begin with the Shiva/Shakti yagya to invoke the spiritual power of enlightenment and liberation from the cycle of rebirth. This is followed by a full day of traditional Ancestor Yagyas. The ancient story of Ganga is that she originally came down to earth to bring purity and to wash away all ignorance of our own divine nature. So it is fitting that the series concludes with a soothing yagya for Ganga - the divine form of the river itself, and symbol of purity and liberation for all generations. Lastly, we perform the traditional Pavamana Soma Yagya from the Rig Veda.

The Vedas emphasize the importance of family and speak of how yagyas benefit previous generations who, in turn, support us with their blessings.  Please join us!

Sama Veda Recitation Yagya (9/14 - 22)

For spiritual development, peace of mind, and overall success and happiness

Vedic Recitation Yagya
September 14 - 22
$65
Combine with Family Yagyas and Daily Yagyas - $97 total

All mantras are derived from the Vedas which contain the knowledge of the essence of life and the keys to spiritual development. This nine day yagya will be performed by a large group of uniquely qualified Vedic Pundits who will recite the entire text of the Sama Veda.

The power and uniqueness of this yagya derives from the fact that Sama Veda contains the hymns of the Rig Veda but performed in such a way that the spiritual impact is maximized. Sama Veda softens our consicousness so that we are more aware of the subtle impulses of the divine and thus our path to enlightenment and god consciousness is both shortened and enlivened.

This yagya is an extensive effort that not only takes specially train Sama Veda Pundits, but requires that they spend 6-8 hours of
chanting each day in order to complete the yagya in nine days. Needless to say we are fortunate to have access to such qualified individuals for this event. Don't miss it!
