All-Year Rudra Parayanam for World Peace
The Akhanda Rudra Parayanam would mark the beginning of the Ati Rudra parayanam offering. This year the plan is to offer 11 ekadasha rudrams in 121 devotee homes and temples across the North American continent i.e. In each home / temple at least 11 devotees will gather and chant the Sri Rudram 11 times. (Thus, it will amount to 11 times * 11 devotees * 121 locations = 1 Ati Rudram)
We will create sign-up sheets for homes/temples across several locations including lead and volunteers.
Samasta Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu!
