PUJA
11:15 - 12:15 pm
Thursday Satsang Hall
More than ritual, puja is understood as an act of connection and gratitude, where the practitioner expresses respect, devotion, and surrender. It is also seen as a way to cultivate inner purity, mindfulness, and spiritual awareness.
In essence, puja transforms everyday actions into sacred practice by directing attention toward the divine or higher consciousness.

Our weekly Sivananda Satsang is about bringing to life the ancient wisdom
