Lakshmi Puja
Friday Sept 25, 7 – 9PM Vedic Priest Bharata (Bill Barry) will offer this Vedic Ceremony invoking Divine Mother Lakshmi’s blessings of abundance on all levels in our lives. Attendees will have several options of participation in puja, including group mantras. Pujas are a form of religious ceremony performed according to precise procedures found in ancient Vedic scriptures. Mantras, hymns, prayers and invocations are chanted in Sanskrit, often called the language of the gods. This puja, performed as a classic shodashopachara (16 form) style puja, invokes Divine assistance for the resolution of karma and attainment of spiritual blessings. 
Personal
Protection Mantras
Saturday Sept 26, 9 to 11:30AM Human interactions often involve non-physical dynamics that can penetrate our aura and energy body in ways that disrupt or damage vitality on all levels. Counselors, teachers, therapists, healers and caregivers are exposed in ways not commonly understood. Sanskrit mantras, and some yogic techniques provide tools to build our protective armor or quickly cleanse the aura of residual psychic junk. Mantras for protection against psychic attack or removal of malevolent influences are also taught. Proactive protection and periodic sonic cleansing provide powerful techniques that are simple, discreet and effective to use. Workshop includes detailed handout and recordings of mantras.
