Sacred Vows

Deekshas

A deeksha is a sacred undertaking — a vow of devotional discipline sustained over days or weeks, with discourse and guidance from our a:cha:rya, leading the devotee into the presence of the Lord.

Sri: Maha: Lakshmi — divine consort of Sri:man Na:ra:yana

श्री महा लक्ष्मी दीक्षा

శ్రీ మహా లక్ష్మీ దీక్ష

Sri: Maha: Lakshmi Deeksha

A sacred vow invoking the grace of Sri: Maha: Lakshmi — Sri:man Na:ra:yana's eternal consort and the source of all auspiciousness, wealth, and well-being.

The Maha: Lakshmi Deeksha is undertaken with daily upavasa, archana, and the chanting of Sri: Maha: Lakshmi Ashtottara Shata Namavali. Devotees observe sattvic discipline, offer kumkuma archana, and recite the Sri: Suktam through the period of the deeksha. Discourse and step-by-step guidance from HH Sri: Tridandi Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji are included in the recording linked here.
