Maha Shivrathri - A Great experience !!


Jai Gurudev !!




This Sunday , Mar 10 being the Maha Shivrathri , the Art of Living Ashram had planned wonderful events as part of the Maha Shivrathri celebrations at Bangalore Ashram . Earlier , it used to happen at different other locations .

Hence, I had also planned to be there along with my center people and acquire the graceful moments .
Close to a Lakh people would have visited the ashram , I believe . Devotees  from 60 countries had attended the function. All people , young and old alike, youths and kids , aged , men and women alike had participated , none to leave .People from all over the world and all over the country were present at the occasion.





About 252 Gram Devathas had visited and graced the ashram  on this auspicious night. That means the village deities from 252 different villages in and around Bangalore has been invited. That was a wonderful sight watching them bring their Gods with all instrumentals and associated dance troups.
Guruji had started the Live Kriya Himself , which the people had definitely found a Great and amazing difference than the regular taped Kriya versions.
Followed by the Sudarshan Kriya was the  Rudra Puja with Shiva Chamakam  continued for about an hour , the Puja was performed by Guruji to the Shiv Linga and other priests were assisting Guruji. Vedic Chants were going on , chanted by small Veda Patashala kids and pundits .Guruji was seen with utmost devotion and 100 percent concentration towards the Puja and he went into deep meditation for about an hour afert that  , when the whole Yagna shala or the Hall was reverberating with the Shiva Bhajan songs. All the people participated , their energy level was at a very high , after the Kriya and Puja and the Gram Devathas too.
Guruji had also participated in a couple of  Bhajans, once he came out of the Meditation  and blessed the people.
That was a really a Blissful Shivrathri , which I ever had experienced in my life. A memorable one indeed !!
Love & smiles...
