About Sita KalyanamSita Kalyanam is the reminiscence of a sacred event of the distant past, it celebrates the day Sri Ram and Sita entered into matrimony. The original event took place many aeons ago, but is still remembered on the 5th day of the sacred month of Margashirsha as per the Indian lunar calendar. This correlates approximately with November / December of the Gregorian calendar.
Purpose of Yajna My purpose for conducting yajnas is to create auspiciousness, a spiritual aura, and a spiritual field just like you get in a church temple or holy place. A yajna is not a discourse. Nor is it a seminar on yoga and the purpose is not entertainment. Entertainment is not and has never been my way of life. There are many things that have been invented to make you feel good. When it is cold you feel good in a centrally heated room. When it is very hot you feel very good in an air-conditioned room. You feel very good reposing in a five star hotel or when you have a scotch. There are so many ways to feel good. Why come here to feel good? You come here not to feel good but to become good. The mind should become peaceful. If your son is ailing he should recover. If you have a business problem, it should go away. If you have any problems in your life, they should go away. The purpose is to help you get rid of your problems in life and have peace, prosperity and good health. It is your good luck to be able to witness this yajna. Excerpt from Swami Satyananda's satsang at the yajna held during Sita Kalyanam in 1999 at Paramahansa Alakh Bara Rikhia. |
