There
are 4 Navaratris each year [also known as the 9 days/nights of Mother
Divine]. Each Navaratri has a particular theme aside from the general
context of the enlivenment of Shakti or Nature's organizing power.
This coming Navaratri runs June 23 - 30. It culminates in Guru Purnimah
- day of the Guru or full moon of Guru Dev on July 7. |

Navaratri/9 nights of Mother Divine - General Context | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Aside
from the specific theme of Guru Purnimah, all 4 Navaratri's throughout
the year share the following characteristics: [nava = 9, ratri = night]
or 9 nights of mother divine. They are a time of cleansing and purification
and evolution throughout nature. During these periods, the tide of Sattva
or coherence or wholeness of life rises to purge the fragmented, imperfect
values of natural law. In vedic mythology, Navaratri is depicted as
the time when Shakti [the quintessential power of the universe], champion
of the gods, is victorious over the demons. It is a time for light to
triumph over darkness. Harnessing nature's momentum through yagya Navaratri is also known as 'Durga Puja': 9 day festival celebrating Durga: the Divine Mother -the wholeness or collectedness of God's feminine aspect. Yagyas are traditionally performed during the 9 days to harness the momentum of this highly auspicious window of opportunity. Navaratri or Durga puja yagyas serve to direct this lively flow of nature's intelligence into our daily life in order to safe guard and enhance our progress & evolution and also to achieve specific goals. testimonials |

Today
K. had a scan showing that Cancer has not grown for a year. So that
is great news for us, especially when the radiation professor told him
to say his goodbyes and expect very little time beyond last November.
Thought
you might like to know that J's new show (which we had the yagya done
for in July) has consistently been number one for the last couple of
months. Everyone agrees it is punching about its weight. Very cool. ...Well
only you could believe that on day one of the yagya his solicitor wrote
to us offering to settle (after 4 years). "What
a yagya. I think my whole physiology is changing... I think this must
be the best yagya ever...The impacts keep on coming. I can feel the
pundits coming and going. It is amazing...Can you book me a place for
next year?" ...So,
I have had some good things to report since the yagya, I have been given
a new position at last. It's a promotion with pay increase but the best
part is I am back in a department I started from. Only now I'm the manager.
The entrance has a sunny aspect, the floor is about to undergo refurbishment
so will end up being fabulous ,sleek and contemporary. ...and
yes for the Laksmi/Saraswathi (as there was an almighty shift towards
the positive) |
