Bharata and Mandavi ( Bill & Denise Barry) will perform this Vedic Ceremony to celebrate Divine Mother Lalita and the power of ‘The Great Feminine’, the Divine Shakti that powers every aspect of our universe and our lives. Attendees have several options of participation in the puja, including group mantras.
 

EVERYONE IS WELCOME to attend this Lalita Puja. No prior experience with puja is required. Optional participation in the puja will include: several group mantras will be chanted and the inclusion of personal items in the puja tray. Near the end of the Puja we will chant the HANUMAN CHALISA, and those who know this beautiful hymn are welcome to join in.

WHAT IS A PUJA?:
Pujas are a form of religious ceremony performed according to precise procedures found in Vedic scriptures. Mantras, hymns and invocations are chanted in ancient Sanskrit, often called the language of the gods. These ceremonies are performed to seek Divine assistance for all of life's needs including the resolution of karma and attainment of spiritual blessings. Tonight’s ceremony is a Shodasho-pachara (16 component) classical form of puja.
