SUMMARY:Hiranya Shraddha Puja
DESCRIPTION:Sarva Pitru Amavasya is performed on the new moon day in the month of Bhadrapada. Pitru means ancestors and Paksha means fortnight. Therefore\, Pitru Paksha is a 15 lunar day period during which the Hindus pay homage to their ancestors mainly by way of food offerings. The period commences with the full moon day or Purnima that takes place immediately after Ganesh Chaturthi and ends with the new moon day or Amavasya known as Sarva Pitru Amavasya. That’s why Amavasya Shraddha is also known as Sarvapitra Moksha Amavasya and Hiranya Shraddham. Hiranya Shraddham helps the deceased parents and ancestors in their new world. When this is done\, a wave of love and blessings pass from the parents to the children. It is the most important day of Pitru Paksha. Pitru Paksha is a Sanskrit word that literally stands for ‘fortnight of the ancestors’ \n\n— Come 15 min. early for seating arrangements — You can bring ancestors small pictures\, gotra\, name.Temple will provide puja materials. Registration is required by Thursday\, September 18th \nFor Priest: Swayampakam\, Vastradanam\, and Dakshina

SUMMARY:Pradosham
DESCRIPTION:Pradosham is a sacred occasion dedicated to Lord Shiva\, observed twice a month on the 13th day (Trayodashi) of both the waxing and waning moon phases. It is a time of heightened spiritual energy\, believed to be particularly auspicious for seeking Lord Shiva’s blessings to remove negativity\, overcome obstacles\, and attain inner peace and prosperity. \nIn Hindu tradition\, Pradosham symbolizes the time when Lord Shiva drank the halahala poison during the churning of the cosmic ocean (Samudra Manthan) to save the universe. His selfless act of consuming the poison represents the destruction of negativity and the preservation of life and dharma. Devotees observe this occasion with fasting\, meditation\, and prayers to cleanse their minds and align their souls with the divine. \nAt the Hindu Temple Society of New Mexico\, the Pradosham celebration includes special Abhishekam (ritual bathing of the Shiva Lingam)\, the chanting of sacred mantras\, and offering of bilva leaves\, fruits\, and flowers to Lord Shiva. Devotees gather to sing bhajans\, perform Aarti\, and meditate during this auspicious twilight period\, which is believed to be the most favorable time to worship Lord Shiva and seek his grace. \nPlease join us for this spiritually enriching event as we come together to honor Lord Shiva and connect with his divine energy. Everyone is welcome to participate and experience the serenity and blessings of Pradosham at HTSNM. \nExact time for this event is 7:05 PM to 09:27 PM

SUMMARY:Maa Durga Abishegam
DESCRIPTION:Maa Durga Abishegam is a sacred ritual dedicated to worshipping Goddess Durga\, who embodies divine power\, protection\, and motherly compassion. The ritual is performed to honor her fierce and nurturing aspects\, invoking her blessings for strength\, courage\, and the removal of negative energies. It symbolizes the devotee’s surrender to the supreme power that Durga represents\, which helps overcome life’s obstacles and fears. \nDuring the Abishegam\, various sacred substances like milk\, honey\, coconut water\, and sandalwood paste are poured over an idol or image of Maa Durga\, accompanied by the chanting of powerful Vedic mantras and hymns. Each offering holds a symbolic meaning\, such as purification\, nourishment\, and prosperity\, aligning the devotee’s intentions with divine grace. This ritual signifies the purification of the mind and body and reinforces the devotee’s connection to the goddess. \nThe Maa Durga Abishegam is believed to bestow blessings of protection\, success\, and spiritual growth. Devotees seek Durga’s intervention for overcoming personal struggles\, gaining resilience\, and achieving peace. Through this ritual\, Maa Durga is venerated not only as the fierce warrior who defeats evil but also as the compassionate mother who nurtures and guides her children toward liberation and self-realization.

SUMMARY:Pradosham
DESCRIPTION:Pradosham is a sacred occasion dedicated to Lord Shiva\, observed twice a month on the 13th day (Trayodashi) of both the waxing and waning moon phases. It is a time of heightened spiritual energy\, believed to be particularly auspicious for seeking Lord Shiva’s blessings to remove negativity\, overcome obstacles\, and attain inner peace and prosperity. \nIn Hindu tradition\, Pradosham symbolizes the time when Lord Shiva drank the halahala poison during the churning of the cosmic ocean (Samudra Manthan) to save the universe. His selfless act of consuming the poison represents the destruction of negativity and the preservation of life and dharma. Devotees observe this occasion with fasting\, meditation\, and prayers to cleanse their minds and align their souls with the divine. \nAt the Hindu Temple Society of New Mexico\, the Pradosham celebration includes special Abhishekam (ritual bathing of the Shiva Lingam)\, the chanting of sacred mantras\, and offering of bilva leaves\, fruits\, and flowers to Lord Shiva. Devotees gather to sing bhajans\, perform Aarti\, and meditate during this auspicious twilight period\, which is believed to be the most favorable time to worship Lord Shiva and seek his grace. \nPlease join us for this spiritually enriching event as we come together to honor Lord Shiva and connect with his divine energy. Everyone is welcome to participate and experience the serenity and blessings of Pradosham at HTSNM. \nExact time for this event is 7:25 PM to 09:41 PM
