Mission Day Weekend

Mission Day on 28th October is an occasion for initiation, celebration and joy.

It is an annual celebration of the event which began Shakti Durga’s journey as disciple to Parameshwari and Guru to those who are called to our amazing path of self-realisation. 2023 marks 17 years of an incredible journey that has touched many lives. In 2006 the people present when the inner world opened to Shakti Durga were also affected by the energy and Divine presence which was there. We will be holding Mission Day at the very same spot, where the energy of that event is held in the land. Our serene and beautiful Harmony Centre will play host to a day of spiritual celebration and blessings, music and awakening.

Do come and hear the new arising of consciousness which will affect the way we conceive of the mission as it outpours.

This is one of the sacred days of the year where Shakti Durga offers initiations, either spiritual names, or welcome to the school, or discipleship for those wanting a deeper dive into the mysteries. Please contact registrar@shaktidurga.com if you want to be considered for discipleship.

During the morning there will be a Parameshwari fire puja conducted by  Shiva Kata Tjuta on behalf of Shakti Durga and their mission, calling forth the blessings from Lord Shiva, Maha Dev, for Diksha to be bestowed. This special puja can be sponsored $144 per person. This fire will be in conjunction with a heart opening Hand of Durga ceremony designed for everyone in attendance. Those online will be included via zoom link for the morning program.

Donations to our charity The Well Being Initiative are from your heart, are tax deductible and used to support the work of our amazing community.
