Mahalaya Amavasya Tila Homa by Swamini Ambikamrita Prana - In Person

Oct 2, 2024 5:30am-8:00am (ended)

Location: Amrita Hall Porch

MAHALAYA AMAVASYA TILA HOMA

Pujas performed on the day of Mahalaya Amavasya, also called Sarva Pitra Moksha Amavasya, are considered most beneficial for deceased family members and ancestors. On this day, Swamini Ambikamrita Prana will be conducting a Tila Homa (Vedic fire ceremony) to pay homage to departed souls.

In keeping with Amma’s wish that Homas for her devotees who have passed away be performed periodically, MA Center will make a special sankalpa for them during the Tila Homa.

All are welcome to attend.

You may register for a sankalpa (special resolve) to be made during the homa on your behalf, or for a loved one. Those who register for sankalpa do not need to be present to receive the benefits of the Homa.

HOMAS AVAILABLE ON THIS DAY ARE:
Tila, MahaGanapathy, Ganapathy, Navagraha (all nine planets), and individual planets: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu

Sankalpa registration will be open until Tuesday, October 1st, at 5:30 PM PDT. Register here >>
