What a treat to feel a part of the celebration and to see our beloved Guru. I especially loved seeing all the children chanting, meditating, and offering dakshina. Siddha Yoga will flourish for years to come.

Thank you, Gurumayi, for inviting all of us together, around the world, to visit the Temple and to behold Bade Baba’s golden form.
As I enter the Temple, I experience I am entering the abode of supreme bliss and the abode of my own heart. In each particle of shakti, I experience the vibration of the mantra and find the essence of all scripture.

The Temple looked so beautiful for Mahashivaratri. Even the gorgeous flower arrangements seemed to be laughing with Gurumayi in the supreme silence of the occasion. The joy of the day was beautifully expressed for us all to participate.
Thank you, Gurumayi. And thank you to all the dedicated sevites.

It’s so wonderful to watch every single image from the Mahashivaratri celebration. I have been touched by the joy, beauty, love, and so much splendour in everyone’s heart and on their faces.
I feel I have been getting refreshed by my own experience of reciting Shri Guru Gita. On Mahashivaratri, I was feeling a strong urge to recite Shri Guru Gita, and when I took time to do so, I found myself very serene and grounded. I was filled with love and gratitude toward Gurumayi. And when I saw the images on the website, I was delighted.

Bade Baba looks so serene and majestic. I felt he was intently listening to each word of Sri Guru Gita chant and simultaneously sending sweet blessings to all those chanting and to us all viewing this event on our computer screens.
I paused, breathed, and connected with the shakti. It was so powerful! Thank you Gurumayi a million times over for this prasad and blessing.

Thank you so much for the sweetness of the recitation of Shri Guru Gita to celebrate Mahashivaratri.
I felt in my heart, essence, and presence that I was seated with all of you,
though I was in front of my own puja.

I have absorbed this glorious morning’s chanting of Shri Guru Gita right into my bones through viewing the resplendent photos. Thank you, Gurumayi. Thank you to all who participated in the chant. Thank you to all who performed the seva that brought these resplendent photos to the website so that all of us around the world can participate in this grace-filled, auspicious occasion!

Thank you so much for the beautiful images from Mahashivaratri! On that day I was filled with so much inner beauty and peace. All day, off and on, my husband and I were chanting and focused on the mantra.
In the evening I attended the Celebration Satsang at our local Siddha Yoga Meditation center. That night, as I prepared for sleep, I held onto my mala and experienced a sleep that felt as though I was floating all night in a very still and pure space. Very special! I am so grateful for this path.

The chant seems to be happening in heaven!
Muchas gracias for this new jewel.

It was so beautiful to be part of the recitation of Shri Guru Gita in honor of Mahashivaratri through the images shared on line. Every image was resplendent with the luminosity of the occasion. Bade Baba looked stunning and regal, and felt so alive, surrounded as he was by all the devotion and love of the devotees in the Temple.
I feel so blessed to see you, my beloved Guru, smiling, chanting, and being there for each of us as we transform to become our best and brightest selves in this lifetime.
Thank you, Gurumayi.

What a surprise gift to be able to participate in the Shri Guru Gita chant for Mahashivaratri by seeing these photos! Distance really does not make a difference. Bade Baba is always so majestic and full of love. When I look at these photos of Bade Baba and Gurumayi, they seem to have an invisible wire sending pulsations of love from the computer monitor into my heart. It keeps pounding stronger and stronger.
Thank you, Gurumayi, for your kind gift, and thank you to all the sevites who make this possible!

As I viewed the beautiful photographs from this celebration, I was especially moved to see images of children engaging so naturally in the Siddha Yoga practices—chanting, meditation, offering dakshina. They are a moving affirmation of the everlasting power and beauty of the Siddha Yoga philosophy and culture. Thank you so much for sharing these precious images with the world.

What a beautiful Mahashivaratri gift, to witness the power of mantra japa within and without.
My heart is full of joy at the sight of devotees of all ages engaging in the practices. I felt like I was right there with everyone, and it made me enjoy my own celebration at home even more!
