<I>Puja</I> means flower offering, or worship with flowers. On November 2, 2013, in correspondence with Kali Puja in West Bengal and the festival of Diwali, and in alignment with Samhain and the Day of the Dead, SHARANYA <I>kaula</I> (family) gathered with community from around the Bay Area to celebrate. 

We began by opening our hearts to the simple truth and beauty of our presence within creation. Surrendered and humble, we entered the sacred space of the Divine Mother's embrace through ritual and meditation. Following the Tantric yoga of dissolution, our work was toward a deepened experience of Maa. Gratitudes to those who joined in the night. May you come back again and again to Her lotus feet!
