	Sri Maha Kaleshwar Mandir, Santa Clara Join us for Navaratri October 15-24, 2012 We will be celebrating the nine nights of devotion to Goddess Durga with daily pujas, performances, and special participatory opportunities.  Please join us for as many events as you can and PLEASE SPONSOR GENEROUSLY!   The basic aim of this celebration is to propitiate Shakti, the Goddess in Her aspect as Power, to bestow upon man all wealth, auspiciousness, prosperity, knowledge (both sacred and secular), and all other potent powers.  Whatever be the particular or special request that everyone may put before the Goddess, whatever boon may be asked of Her, the one thing behind all these is propitiation, worship and linking oneself with Her. There is no other aim. This is being effected consciously or unconsciously. Everyone is blessed with Her loving mercy and is protected by Her. —Swami Sivananda            All sponsors over $108 will receive Amṛtābhiṣekaḥ (abhishekam with sanctified water from Kalasam worshipped throughout the Navaratri pujas) on Wed. evening, Oct. 24th at 7 pm, along with prasadam from the puja.   Daily Schedule: 3 pm        Chandi Puja 4:30        Chandi Parayanam (chanting of Devi Mahatmyam) 6:30        Nitya Archana (daily arati for all deities) 7:30        Lalita Sahasranam archana 8-9          Natya and Sangeeta Seva (Dance and music performances) Special Events: Monday, Oct. 15th, Preliminary pujas:  9am Ganeśapūjā, 10.30 am Navagraha, 11 am Kalaśasthāpana Thurs.
