A GREAT HINDU WORSHIP - FIRST TIME IN NORTH AMERICA

A worship / prayer for Canada’s prosperity
“Wherever you live, honour it as your land and treat all as your relatives”,
our ancient books state.
We are blessed to live in a Nation that counts freedom of conscience and free exercise of culture/religion among its most fundamental principles, thereby ensuring that all people of goodwill may hold and practice their beliefs according to the dictates of their consciences.
It is the time that we all need to exercise our religious belief to alleviate the economic turmoil in Canada, through our prayers and worship.
Rituals & Benifits
It is believed that prayers and offerings to the invocated divinities in the ‘sacred fire’ brings prosperity to the nation. In Hinduism, this ritual is called Homam. It is also known as Havan / Yaga / Jagnam. The length and procedure of a homam depends on the purpose to which it is performed. Many different types of homams are cited in Hindu scriptures.
Maha Chandi Homam is the most mystical and cognitively powerful. It is performed by qualified priests for the benefit of individuals, the state or all sentient beings in general. The consecrated fire and invocated divinities are believed to have a powerful cleansing effect on the devotees - spiritually and psychologically.

About Maha Chandi Homam
the central deity invoked in this ritual is Maha Chandi. The ritual is performed for the purpose of destroying negative energies, detrimental thoughts and desires, and for the making of secular requests and blessings;
Procedures invariably involve:
1 Kindling and consecration of the sacrificial fire;
Invocation of Maha Chandi and other divinities; and,
2 Making of offerings ( real or visualized) to Maha Chandi with the fire as via media, amid the recitation of prescribed prayers and Mantras
3 The combination of the ritual's visuals and sounds can be trance-inducing and make for a profound spiritual experience.
Who is Chandi Devi?
There is a popular Puranic (mythological) saying that in this age of kali Yuga, Goddess Durga, in the form of Chandi Devi, respond immediately to the prayers of devotees.
By performing Homam rituals to Chandi Devi, all kinds of sufferings caused by hostile elements are eradicated for a nation and it’s individuals. The hostile elements include curses, revenges by wandering spirits and invisible evil forces. New researches reveal that listening to Mantra sounds and breathing the smokes from Homam creates highly coherent brain functioning.
