Siri Jyoti Puja with Dr Kavitha Chinnaiyan and Antarma
Sunday 16th June 2024 | 10:00-18:00 | General Price: £306, Participate remotely via livestream: £108
Siri Jyoti is an empowerment ritual designed by Guruji, which means the wealth of light. It is a group ritual performed to the Sricakra (a spiritual diagram with transformative and mystical power). We invite you to join Dr. Kavitha Chinnaiyan and Antarma for a full day immersion into the Sricakra, with mantra, music, sharing and celebration.
The day will begin with the design and decoration of the Sricakra altogether, using flowers, candles/lights and different coloured grains. It is a beautiful experience that brings the group creative energy together. All participants will have the opportunity to offer music, dance or other creative pieces to Devi (the Goddess) and honour the divine feminine. The puja will be followed by light afternoon snacks and chai.
After the break, we will gather to talk through various concepts and questions that arise. This is a great opportunity to simply listen, share your experience and/or ask questions about your sadhana (spiritual practice) or the puja itself.
All those attending will receive a high-quality print of Lalita Mahatripurasundari (the Goddess associated with the Sricakra), a high-quality print of the Sricakra and offerings (grains and flowers) as prasad, infused with the healing power and devotion of the Siri Jyoti Puja.
Both Kavitha-ji and Antarma have Sri Amritananda Natha in common as their Parama Guru, and are happy about this first meeting and collaboration with friends of the same lineage honouring the Divine Mother.
