This time of year is special 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 a group of experienced and specially trained pundits who will perform these yagyas for you and your family in Varanasi, on the banks of the sacred Ganges river; the traditional home of Shiva and Parvati. The yagya series includes a Shiva/Shakti yagya to invoke the spiritual power of enlightenment and liberation from the timeless cycle of rebirth. We also have fours days of traditional Ancestor Yagyas. The ancient story of Ganga is that she 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, a symbol of purity and liberation for all generations. The Vedas emphasize the importance of family and repeatedly speak of how these yagyas benefit previous generations who, in turn, support us with their blessings. Please join us!

Navaratri honors the Divine Mother in the form of Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati, who represent Power, Abundance and Wisdom in their most powerful and charming forms. Each day, our priests perform an elaborate Chandi (shakti or goddess) yagya from 7 AM to 1 PM, followed by 2 hours of evening pujas when the Chandi Path Goddess Mantra text is recited along with the 1008 names (Sahasranam) of Lalitha; the most beautiful form of the goddess. We are also including a full day Ganesha yagya at the beginning of Navaratri. This yagya removes obstacles to our progress towards enlightenment and material success. The final day, Vijaya Dashami, will feature special pujas for Saraswati who is honored on this day of victory, symbolic of the victory of light over darkness and joy over suffering. These yagyas are profoundly purifying and eliminate old stresses and bad karmas. As a result life is lived with more freedom, happiness and satisfaction.
