2025 SPRING

A Sacred Immersion into the Preliminary Practices of the Devī Māhātmya

March 30 - April 7, 2025

6:30 PM - 8:30 PM EST (Nightly Live Sessions)

Online via Zoom

Join us for a spiritually empowering nine-night journey with Gurumayi Shambhavi Acharya and Dr. Katy Jane—a rare opportunity to receive traditional instruction into the sacred preliminaries of the Devī Māhātmya, the 700 verses of the Goddess.

For devotees of the Goddess, the Devī Māhātmya is the most revered scripture, offering a powerful invocation of the Divine Mother’s protection, grace, and transformative power through the recitation of Her 700 sacred verses.

But before we can fully receive its blessings, we must first prepare ourselves.

This Chaitra Navaratri immersion serves as a prerequisite for a deeper three-month guided immersion into all 700 verses of the Devī Māhātmya, which will take place after Navaratri. If you wish to undertake the full study of this sacred scripture, these nine nights will lay the necessary foundation for proper chanting, understanding, and integration of the text’s power into your spiritual practice.

Prepare to Invoke the Goddess Within

YES, SIGN MEUP NOW!

Through the essential preparatory practices of the Kavacha, Argala, and Kilaka Stotras, you will:

Align with the Goddess’s power (Kavacha) – Create an energetic shield that connects your body and spirit with Hers.
Hold Her presence within you (Argala) – Remove obstacles and anchor the Goddess’s blessings in your life.
Open fully to Her grace (Kilaka) – Surrender deeply and receive Her energy within your being.

These three practices do more than protect you—they transform you into a living vessel of the Goddess’s energy, ensuring that Her presence is not just invoked, but fully realized within you.

Why These Preliminary Practices Matter

The Devī Māhātmya—also known as the Durga Saptashati—is one of the most potent invocations of the Goddess. But its true power is only unlocked when the practitioner is properly prepared.

When practiced correctly, these three preliminary stotras will purify your inner and outer world, creating a powerful container to receive the blessings of Navaratri and beyond.

If you aspire to study the full Devī Māhātmya in our upcoming three-month immersion, this program is essential to prepare your mind, heart, and subtle body for receiving the Goddess’s full presence.
