Virtual Maha Shivaratri with Amma's North American Disciples
"Shivaratri is a celebration of sacrifice, dispassion and renunciation. Shivaratri teaches us to abandon all other thoughts in contemplation of God and to realize the ultimate purpose of human life...May Divine Grace take us beyond all sense of duality and make us one with the Supreme." -Amma
Spiritual practices done on the night of Maha Shivaratri are considered especially beneficial. The virtual Maha Shivaratri event will be led by Swami Dayamritananda Puri, Swami Shantamritananda Puri and Br. Rāmānandāmṛta Chaitanya. Program includes Satsang Talk, Puja Ceremonies, Group Chanting and Devotional Singing, and more. Broadcast at: youtube.com/MACenterSanRamon.
