Shravana Masam Poojas
Tuesday, July 21 through Tuesday, August 18, 2020
Shravana Masa is the lunar month that begins two weeks after Guru Purnima. When we worship Mother Lakshmi during Shravana, She drives away restlessness, worry and depression. During this month we have a powerful opportunity to worship Sri Maha Lakshmi and receive Her Divine Grace to drive away the ashta kashtas, the 8 types of hardships that people face-desire, anger, greed, pride, envy, egoism, quarrelsomeness, and avarice. Shravana Masam is also an auspicious time to worship Lord Shiva.
Sri Suktam Homa

Sri Suktam, a hymn of exquisite beauty and grace, is a panacea to please Shree Maha Lakshmi through reverence and adoration with mantras. The sadhaka invokes the Goddess Maha Lakshmi with mantras through the sacred homa fire. This auspicious homam is believed to remove misfortune and both material and spiritual poverty, invoking Lakshmi’s grace to bring Health, Wealth, Peace & Prosperity to our lives and families. It is said that for adoration of Devi Lakshmi, there is no hymn equal to the Sri Suktam.
