Come Closer to the Divine Mother

There are moments when we feel the Divine Mother so close. In the stillness of meditation, in the beauty of nature, in the quiet moments when we feel her love and guidance. And there are times when we long to feel that connection more deeply, to experience her presence not just in our spiritual practice, but in the everyday moments of our lives.

Navaratri is a sacred invitation to come closer to her.

For ten days, we will gather in devotion to the Divine Mother, opening our hearts to her presence through powerful meditations, sacred practices, and energy transmissions. Each evening, we will come together as a spiritual family, creating a beautiful collective field of energy in which to receive her blessings and deepen our connection to her.

Our intention is simple: to bring the Divine Mother more fully into our lives.

We hope you can join us.

What is Navaratri?

Navaratri is the most powerful time of the year dedicated to the Divine Mother, observed over nine nights and ten days. It is a sacred time when we can receive the Mother’s blessings and grace more deeply into our lives.

At the heart of Navaratri is the story of Durga’s victory over Mahishasura, a powerful demon who had become so strong that no god could defeat him. The gods poured their divine light and power into one radiant being, Durga. Armed with their divine weapons, she fought Mahishasura for nine nights.

On the tenth day, she emerged victorious as Mahishasura Mardini, the destroyer of Mahishasura.

Her victory represents the triumph of divine consciousness over ignorance, darkness, and the forces that keep us from realizing our true nature. She is the fierce and loving Mother who protects us, removes obstacles, and awakens the Shakti within us.

The Navaratri Experience

Ten Days in the Presence
of the Divine Mother

A sacred immersion in readings, meditation, prayer, live ceremony, and energy transmission, shared with a spiritual family from around the world.

Meditation during Navaratri
01 / Every evening

Sacred Readings & Meditations

Each evening begins with Bhramari sharing carefully chosen sacred readings that open the heart and draw us into the living presence of the Divine Mother. From there, Ramakrishna guides the process mantra, stages of silence, meditation, and energy transmission. Each night builds upon the one before it, taking the group progressively deeper into connection with the Mother.

02 / Sacred fire

Sacred Fire Pujas from Kalimath & Blanco

Your prayers and intentions will be carried into the sacred fire throughout Navaratri. We will gather for a special fire puja here at our center in Blanco, Texas, and for an extraordinary live fire puja streamed from Kalimath in the Himalayas, one of India's great Shakti power spots. Your prayers will be offered into the fire as Ramakrishna and Bhramari hold the group in prayer and energy transmission.

Join us live for Abhishek to the feet of Kanaka Durga from Penukonda, India, the birthplace of Kali in our tradition and an extraordinary Divine Mother power spot where the Mother has appeared to hundreds of students from around the world. We will also offer Maha Abhishek here at our center in Blanco, bathing the Mother with sacred offerings and reading participants' names aloud in prayer and energy transmission.

A personal offering for every participant

Your Prayers, Held in Sacred Practice

Every day throughout Navaratri, Ramakrishna and Bhramari will personally read the prayers submitted by participants and offer energy transmissions on their behalf. Your prayers will be carried into the meditations and sacred fire pujas, and your name will be spoken aloud during the Abhishek ceremonies. Wherever you are in the world, you are brought directly into the heart of the process.
