JAI MA!

Vasanta Navaratri is a 9-night festival celebrating the Divine Mother who is the Mother of all creation. Durga Devi, the Remover of Miseries, appears in 9 different forms, each an embodiment of the qualities that one needs in order to advance on the spiritual path.

Did you Know?

Spring and fall are times of transition and restoring balance both physically and spiritually. Ancient yogis chose this time to focus on their sadhana and to cleanse the physical body by fasting in preparation for the food changes of the new season. Navaratri is a time when we do both in the company of sangha, our spiritual community. Vasanta or Spring Navaratri is connected to Lord Rama, a masculine aspect of divinity.

What to Expect

Each night we worship a different aspect of the Divine Mother with special prayers, pujas, and bhajans. After the yajna (holy fire ceremony) and abhishekam, Devi will be dressed and offered an abundance of prasad. The story of Her victories over numerous demons, the triumph of good over evil and the elevation of Divine Love over the ego will be read each evening from the Devi Mahatmyam.
