  • Karthika Month Is the Most Sacred Month to Worship Lord Mahadeva
    Karthika month is the most sacred month to worship Lord Mahadeva In the month of Karthika both Lord Mahadeva and Lord Vishnu are worshipped together, as it’s the month of Sriharahari. Shlokam || Mahimnah param te parama vidusho yadyasadrishi || Pushpadantacharya praised Sri Mahadeva…. as follows, O Mahadeva! your glory is infinite. If it is unseemly to praise You when ignorant of the extent of’ Your greatness, then even the praises of Brahma and others are inadequate. Sri Mahadev in his most delightful form. The sages, the enlightened, the Siddha men, who are rich in tapahsiddhi, stand before Lord Shankara with a very humble sense of humility. For the devotee- humility is the main thing. Without it, no matter how much is done, can grace be obtained so quickly? With the sight of the eye, in front of the Mahayoga Yogi who burnt Manmadha. O Mind! what is your capacity? Mind let go of the ego and worship Mahadeva. What would it be like to bathe in seawater and interpret the ocean with those seawater? O Mahadeva! form of Shiva Shakti, I humbly ask you to give me the fortune to worship you with the flowers of words you have given me. The Brahma Deva say to the Sri Mahadeva, "Hey! Mahadeva, according to my little intellect, I praise you, the Infinite One." God, that goddess has done great penance for you and has impressed you and become your consort. What is my devotion to you who have seen such great penances? It seems to give bitter water to the mouth that drinks honey, my prayer, my devotion, Deva, Mahadeva, forgive us.

  • Temple Timings Saturday and Sunday Monday
    Temple Timings Saturday and Sunday 9:00 am - 8:30 pm Monday - Friday 9:30 am - 12:30 pm 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm Temple Priest Sankaramanchi Nagendra Prasad (Sharmaji) was born in 1967 East Godavari District, India. His ancestors from thirteen generations were members of the priest class and for centuries had been in charge of the temple in their village Tapeshwaram. At the age of 9, Sharmaji entered the priesthood, as had many previous family members from Amaravati. He graduated from Sri Venkateshwara Vedic School, Tirupathi and came to US in 1994 to Aurora Temple, Chicago. In 1997, he was asked by Datta Yoga Center through Ganapathi Sachidanda Swa. miji's blessings to accept a position as Head Priest in Datta Temple, Baton Rouge, LA. He continued his career in Datta Temple as a registered Hindu priest with East Baton Rouge Clerk of Court. In august 2007, he got relieved from his responsibilities as Head priest from Datta Temple. During this time he performed many pujas in temple and with devotees all around the nation for many festivals and special occasions. Beginning August 2007, he independently started performing all religious ceremonies as a step towards building his personal service to the community. He started his first religious service with Lord Ganesh Puja on Vinayaka Chavithi on 09/15/2007 with all the support from devotees and friends. We expect full support and encouragement from all the devotees in his future developments just as much in the past. Being true believers of ancestors and pious culture with utmost admiration and whole hearted dedication, Sharmaji is participating in propagating the Vedic culture for all devotees.

  • Jyeshta Maasam According to the Lunar Calendar
    Sri Mathrudevi Vishwashanthi Ashram, International Headquarters – ‘Sri Puram’, Penchalakona, Nellore, Dist., Andhra Pradesh 524 414, India June 10, 2020 Embodiments of Divine Souls, My most Beloved Children, The month of May 23 through June 21 (IST) is called the Jyeshta Maasam according to the lunar calendar. Negative effects on some of the moon signs will be eliminated during this entire month of Jyeshta. What are the best practices in order to yield good results during this special month? Read and follow and try to follow the recommendations. Shloka: “Arogyam bhaskarad ichcheth” Meaning as per the Vedas: “Human being’s health is completely embedded in the early morning sun’s rays. So early morning worship to the Sun God (Surya) is very essential”. It is also explained in the Vedas that the radiance in the sun’s cosmic rays change every month just as the colors in the cosmic rays also change. To confirm these findings in the Vedas, a team of experts from the University of Colorado visited the beautiful city of Kashi (also known as Varanasi, Banaras, Benares), where twelve idols of the Sun God have been installed in twelve different temples in twelve different places in the city. For twelve months, the team examined the sun’s rays falling on the idols and were astonished to see the change in colors of the sun rays every month. They all agreed that the Vedas are correct. As explained in the Vedas, the twelve idols installed in Kashi have been given twelve names according to the change in colors of the sun’s rays during the twelve months.
