Namaste Friends,

A fire ceremony will be held on Nov 22nd, Wed., at 10:00 a.m. till Noon at the Malibu Temple. You may participate by going to puja.net and making a small donation. The "Mahamrtunjaya mantra" is a powerful mantra used for bringing health, peace and enlightenment. It comes from the text, the Sri Rudram. This mantra will be chanted 10008 times during the ceremony.

Here is the mantra and a traslation from puja.net
“Tryambakam yajamahe
Sugandhim pushtivardhanam
Urvarurkamiva bhandhanam
Mrityor mukshiya mamirtate.”

“He who has divine fragrance, who makes men powerful and full of plenty; Him we worship, the three-eyed Rudra. As easily as a ripe berry falls from its stalk, release me from death, and let me not turn away from immortality and enlightenment.”

Hear information about and listen to the mantra at www.puja.net/Podcasts/p38MrytuMark.mp3

I plan on attending the Yagya, driving down from Ojai. If anybody wants to ride with me, we could meet in Ventura, let me know! You can dedicate this yagya to someone you know who may need healing, or who is in the process of leaving the physical body.
Many blessings!
