A message from Swami Atmananda Puri 🕉Aum Amriteshwaryai Namah. My dear Sisters and Brothers, in Amma, My humble pranams to all of you.🙏🏽 🌼 Akshaya Tritiya – April 30, 2025 🌼 ✨ Why Perform Rituals on Akshaya Tritiya? Because every mantra chanted and every offering made on this day is magnified manifold. It is a karmic accelerator — what you sow on this holy day, you reap in abundance across time and lifetimes. ______________________________________ A Day of Infinite Blessings and Everlasting Prosperity Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is one of the most auspicious days in the Vedic calendar. The word Akshaya means “that which never diminishes.” Any spiritual act, offering, or sankalpa made on this day is believed to multiply endlessly — bringing unending prosperity, peace, and spiritual growth. This sacred day is blessed by both Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi, and is ideal for new beginnings, divine investments, and karmic cleansing. 🌸 On this deeply auspicious day, Swami Ramakrishnananda Puri will be inaugurating the Amrita Hall and Café at Amma’s Ashram in Melbourne — a sacred space dedicated to community, seva, and spiritual nourishment. The Amrita Hall will host satsangs, pujas, weddings and cultural programs, while the café will serve sattvic offerings in a serene, heart-centred environment. We welcome you to be present in person and receive the first blessings of this new beginning — a space built with Amma’s Love, for spreading Amma’s Love ______________________________________ 🌺 Special Puja Offerings on Akshaya Tritiya 🌺 April 30, 2025 – Join Online or In-Person 🔱 Mahaganapati Homa Begin with invoking Vighnaharta — the remover of all obstacles. This sacred fire ritual ensures a smooth path for all your undertakings. Ideal for: • Removing unseen karmic blocks • Beginning new ventures, projects, or journeys • Establishing mental clarity and inner strength Date & Time: Wednesday, 30 April 2025, 6:00 am 🪐 Navagraha Homa The perfect alignment of your karma with the cosmic forces. Performing Navagraha Homa on Akshaya Tritiya balances planetary influences and brings harmony in all aspects of life: • Relief from astrological doshas and Graha shanti • Success in career, education, relationships • Physical and emotional well-being Date & Time: Wednesday, 30 April 2025, 6:00 am 🌹 Bhagawati Sewa Puja Invoke the divine feminine energy — the source of strength, abundance, and protection. This puja to the Shakti in her benevolent form opens doors to: • Prosperity and household blessings • Protection from negativity and fear • Inner courage and spiritual awakening Date & Time: Wednesday: 30 April 2025, 6:00 pm To register for the pujas: https://ammaapps.org.au/Apps/ammapujas/pujas.aspx ______________________________________ 🕉 Continous Chanting throughout the day – Come, Chant, and Soak in the Divine Vibration Between the sacred Mahaganapati Homa and Navagraha Homa in the morning and the Bhagawati Sewa Puja in the evening, we warmly invite all devotees to spend the day immersed in the spiritual energy of sacred sound. Together, we will chant the 108 names of Amma, recite the Lalitha Sahasranama, offer 108 repetitions of the “Om Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu” peace mantra, and sing uplifting bhajans in devotion to the Divine Mother. Performing these chantings on Akshaya Tritiya is especially powerful — the vibrations generated are believed to purify lifetimes of karma, invoke divine grace, and generate merit that continues to grow without diminishing. Collective chanting on this sacred day creates a radiant spiritual field (satsanga shakti) that heals, energizes, and uplifts. Come in person and be part of this timeless practice — receive, radiate, and rejoice in divine blessings. To participate in the chantings: Contact Kavita +61416976422 Let this Akshaya Tritiya be the turning point in your spiritual and material journey. May Amma’s Grace and Blessings be on all of you, Her Darling Children. _______________________________________ In Amma’s Grace, Swami Atmananda Puri, Melbourne, Australia
