Invitation to Mahaashivaraathri - 2019
Celebrations at Aadhivaarapupeta
You are invited to
celebrate Mahaashivaraathri in Adivarapupeta.
‘Mahaashivaraathri’,
the Great Night of Shiva, falls on Monday, March 04th this year
(2019). It is the main annual function at the Shivabalayogi ashram in
Adivarapupeta – the first and hence the Mother Ashram.
Adivarapupeta
is where Swamiji was born and brought up as Sathyaraju. Adivarapupeta is also
where Sathyaraju performed the 12-year intense ‘tapas’ successfully, had the ‘saakshaathkaara’
of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi Devi and became Shri Shri Shri Shivabalayogi
Maharaj. After travelling all over India and around the world for more than three
decades to carry out His divine mission, it is in Adivarapupeta that Swamiji
attained Mahaasamaadhi through Yoga Nidhra.
His
‘Tapo Mandir’ - the sacred place where the Lord of Yogis sat for almost all of
his twelve-year ‘tapas’ — meditation in ‘samaadhi’ - was converted into an
ashram. Swamiji installed and consecrated a natural Shivalingam and an idol of
Parvathi Devi at the very spot in this ashram where He obtained their ‘saakshaathkaara’.
Mahaashivaraathri
is the most auspicious time of year for the presence of Lord Shiva,
Shivabalayogi's Divine Guru, God in the form of a yogi. Before Shri Swamiji
dropped his own physical form in 1994, He always returned to his native village
of Adivarapupeta to celebrate Mahaashivaraathri there every year. Upholding
this tradition, devotees of Swamiji from all over the world visit His Ashram at
Adivarapupeta to celebrate Mahashivarathri every year.
The
trustees of the Adivarapupeta Ashram Trust and the trustees of Shri Shivabalayogi
Maharaj International Trust cordially invite you to experience and celebrate
the profound blessings of the Great Night of Shiva in Adivarapupeta.
There
is never any charge for His blessings!
