Salutations to Divine Mother!

The Earth quivers, and anticipation fills the air as Divine Mother Durga, astride Her magnificent lion, descends to Her Earthly realm!

Sri Badrika Ashram cordially invites you to be a cherished part of the auspicious Sharadiya Navratri festivities. Embark on a profound spiritual odyssey with the sublime and transformative Nav Durga Sadhana.

Each night, a different manifestation of Goddess Durga graces the Ashram with Her divine presence. From the gentle Shailaputri, and the fierce Kaalratri to the most benevolent Siddhidatri, each form radiates its unique energy, setting ablaze the sacred fires of devotion within you.

Join us at the ashram in celebrating Navadurga Sadhana.

Start the day -

  • download Sadhana app
  • with immersive morning japa,
  • experience Her loving presence through guided visualisation in the temple
  • absorb the stories that celebrate the greatness of Mother Divine, and
  • end the day with Her abhishekam and a powerful yagna.

Come and lose yourself in Her celestial embrace in the mystical environs of the ashram – a tranquil sanctuary for your spiritual journey!
