Daily Morning Puja to Sri Ram: 7:45 - 9:00am
Daily Readings from the Ramayana: 5:00 - 5:45pm
Vijay Dasami: Tuesday, October 20
Navaratri is a ritual period of nine days when the great spiritual epic, the Ramayana, is honored and brought to life by performance of daily Puja to Ram and the reading of Ram’s story. It culminates with Vijaya Dasami, which means "Victory on the tenth day".
The Ramayana tells the story of one of the incarnations of the God Vishnu, who took the form of a human (Lord Ram) to rid the earth of the terrible plague of darkness being spread by a great demon king named Ravana. It can be interpreted as both the tale of a God man who incarnated to help alleviate suffering as well as our own inner journey of awakening and confrontation with darkness representing our own Ego.
Join us for nine days and nights as we symbolically live through the mythic struggle of the Ramayana and follow Ram’s Journey ever closer to his confrontation with the Heart of Darkness, the Demon King Ravana who represents our own Ego.
The Navaratri Program will conclude on Tuesday, October 20th, as we rejoice in victory on the tenth day.
Some events will be available for in-person visits (Registration TBD) and some will be available on live-stream only.
