The holiday season is typically focused on the family as we conclude one year and get ready for the next. This month we will focus on yagyas to benefit our own families by invoking and honoring all the gods and goddesses (sarva = all, devatas = gods and goddesses).
This extensive yagya program is intended to deepen our spiritual connection to the gods and goddesses. In a practical sense, this will strengthen family ties, reduce tension among family members, and will support long term health, success, prosperity, and of course, enlightenment throughout the upcoming year.
In the vedic tradition, Kanchipuram is an exceptionally powerful place to perform yagyas. The temples are ancient and contain the power of countless years of mantras, pujas, and yagyas. Our program will take place in a beautiful private temple in which the major gods and godesses are represented, making this an ideal spot for our December program.
Each day of the program will feature a different yagya for a different aspect of divine intelligence according to the list below.
Ganesha - to remove obstacles to success and spiritual insight
Shiva and Parvati - for a happy family, good health and rapid progress towards enlightenment
Subramanya - for strength and dynamism
Saraswati- for the power of purity and wisdom
Vishnu - for health and and the protection of our dharma
Lakshmi - for all aspects of wealth and abundance
Hanuman - for strength and protection
Sudarshana/Narasimha - for protection from and power over our enemies, supporting family harmony
Navagraha (nine planets) - for balance and elmination of negative karmas
Pavamana Soma - for health, enlightenment, and protection from negativity
The focus of this month's yagya program is to improve
and advance every aspect of life, spiritual and material.
Participants in these yagya programs report that they enjoy a sense of protection from the obstacles and usual ups and downs of daily life. Obstacles seem to be reduced and overall prosperity, abundance and enjoyment of life in general, and specifically family life is improved
