Navaratri is the most sacred time for us. The time we venerate the Divine Mother with all our love. Join us on one or all nights for this special accasion.

During Navaratri, Durga Maa manifests in nine different forms. Each form embodies a particular quality that supports us on our spiritual path. Step by step, the Divine Mother helps us to overcome inner obstacles and draw closer to our true, eternal self.

Each evening begins at **6.00 pm** with:

* Evening prayers
