Swami Karma Karuna and Anahata teachers will be offering at Yatra Festival 2024.
Yatra Opening Ceremony- A Havan for Healing and Transformation / guided by Swami Karma Karuna
Friday 4:45pm
Join in a Havan Fire Ceremony, based on Yajna, an ancient Vedic ritual, involving the offering of various substances into a consecrated fire while reciting specific mantras. Each offering symbolizes an intention or prayer for healing and well-being. The smoke that arises from the fire is believed to carry these intentions to the Divine realm. The Maha Mritunjaya mantra is a revered chant invoking the qualities of Shiva, the first Yogi; It supports the practitioner to elevate consciousness, develop non-attachment and encourages transformation and healing. This mantra enlivens the power to overcome physical, mental, and spiritual ailments as well as aims to purify the environment and promote positive energy.
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात् ॥
