Sri Sukta Sadhana Stage 2

Sri Sukta Sadhana Immersion Stage 1 is a firm prerequisite to participate in this practice

The Sri Sukta Sadhana Stage 2 is an advanced practice. The intensity and the power of the practice accelerates when we align it with the forces of time and place. In addition to the alignment of the celestial bodies on the day of the 3rd of October, the practice coincides with Navaratri, an auspicious period tantrics have put aside for shakti sadhana for ages. Keeping the Sri Vidya Shrine at the epicenter, we take the practice to a totally different level. Put briefly, Sri Sukta Stage 2 is meant to create apurva, a new reality, a field of shakti strong enough to override unwanted and self-defeating dark forces trying to rule our inner and outer worlds. With these kinds of practices, we become a light to ourselves and a light to others.

• The nucleus of this practice is the recitation of Sri Sukta 800 times in 11 days (beginning on October 3rd, 2024), concluding with a special havan practice of 80 recitations on the 12th day (October 14th 2024).
• The fully consecrated space of the Sri Vidya shrine and the vibrant space that pervades the entire campus will ensure that your course of Sri Vidya practice is nurtured by the principle of Ishvara pranidhana.
