Pujas performed on the day of Mahalaya Amavasya, also called Sarva Pitra Moksha Amavasya, are considered most beneficial for deceased family members and ancestors, regardless of when they passed away. On this day, Wednesday, October 2nd, from 5.30-8.00 am Pacific Time, Swamini Ambikamrita Prana will be conducting a Tila Homa (Vedic fire ceremony) at MA Center, San Ramon to pay homage to departed souls. All are welcome to attend.
In keeping with Amma's wish that Homas for her devotees who have passed away be performed periodically, MA Center will make a special sankalpa for them during the Tila Homa.
The following will be included in the Homa and are available to register for a sankalpa (special resolve) to be made during the homa on your behalf, or for a loved one. Please note that those who register for sankalpa do not need to be present to receive the benefits of the Homa:
