Guest guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Host: Soundarya Lahari Location: Post Inn 25 Brown Avenue, Iselin, NJ 08830 US When: Friday, November 23, 4:30PM Come and enjoy a soulful evening of Vedic chanting, Bhajans, music and dance, as the lights are lit one after another duly explaining the meanings of the ritual. During the Karthika month, there is a natural awakening of the centers of knowledge in the body, so it is considered a favorable month for gaining knowledge and is special for Shiva, the lord of knowledge. The month of Karthika is considered to be very auspicious. It reflects the end of dark ages, the conquest of good over evil and the return of peace, purity and prosperity. It is also believed that on this day Shankara killed Tripurasura on Karthika Purnima day. Shiva is worshipped on this occasion. The belief is that if one lights the lamp in this month gets great material benefits and attain salvation. This event will be conducted under the auspices of Sri Karunamaya Baba, (Sri Subbarao Kompella) the Pontiff of Devipuram. Prasadam will be served after the event.
