NAVARATRI Music Concert Event with Temple Bhajan Band

Inspiring music and chants by our guest artists Temple Bhajan Band

If you have never heard these wonderful sounds (called kirtan), many in Sanskrit accompanied by the Indian drum (tabla), harmonium and other musical instruments, this is your chance to participate!

Navaratri is an annual celebration around fall equinox time honoring the three major female energies which in India are celebrated as Saraswati (goddess of learning, arts and music), Laxshmi (goddess of prosperity), and Durga (fierce protectress mother). This year Navaratri begins on the new moon (Sept. 25) and ends nine day later with a final Victory Day (Oct. 4) devoted to Durga.
