Diwali Satsang (In-Person)


A special satsang celebrating Diwali, the Festival of Lights, widely celebrated in India, irrespective of one's faith and tradition. The festival commemorates Lord Rama's return to citizens of Ayodhya, who welcomed him back to the kingdom after his 14 years of life in the forest with arrays of lights and fireworks.

Note: Winter timing for satsang (3 - 5 Pm) will be in effect until Daylight Savings Time begins on March 9, 2025.

Satsang will include:


  • Opening Prayers
  • Chanting Amma's Ashtottara Shata Namavali (108 names)
  • Reading
  • Announcements
  • Bhajans (devotional songs)
  • Arati & Closing Prayers

Please use this SIGN UP SHEET, to sign up to sing a bhajan, or offer a reading.

A lot of seva (selfless service) goes into each satsang. Please sign up to lend a hand on SignUp Genius.
