Deepavali Celebrations
On the auspicious occasion of Diwali on Thursday October 19th, we will be decorating Anagha Lakshmi devi, with 108 Sarees.
All devotees have an opportunity to bring a new saree of any kind (silk, cotton, jari, synthetic etc) to adorn AnaghaLakshmi mataji.
Devotees wishing to donate the saree for this are requested to bring a new saree along with a $11.00 donation to the temple and hand it over to Panditji by October 15th. Only 108 spots available for this, Panditji will recite the names of the donor families during the Kuber Lakshmi Havan, on the morning of Deepavali.
The devotees offering this saree will also have the opportunity to participate in the Lakshmi puja in the evening (7:30pm) and the Donor family will be able to light a Diya to be kept in front of Baba’s altar for Deep-utsav (Diya lighting ceremony).
All are welcome to join in all of the festivities.
