About the Mahotsav
On three of the most auspicious evenings of the year — Dhanteras, Naraka Chaturdashi and Diwali Amavasya — Shri Shriyantra Peetham Samiti, Kashi, holds a sacred Anushthan dedicated to Maa Tripura Sundari.
It is one continuous observance across the three days, conducted under the guidance of Acharya Shri Mahant Shiv Prasad Pandey Lingiya Maharaj, and offered online, so that devotees wherever they live can take part from their own homes.
The Mahotsav is an invitation: to set aside one hour each evening, to join the Samiti in worship, and to pray together.
Spiritual significance
Maa Tripura Sundari, revered as Shri Lalita, is worshipped as the Divine Mother in her most gracious and beautiful form. She is at the heart of the Shri Vidya tradition, and the Shri Yantra, the sacred geometry at the centre of the Samiti's worship, is her yantra.
This Mahotsav is held on Dhanteras, Naraka Chaturdashi and Diwali Amavasya, evenings on which households across India light lamps and turn to prayer. The Samiti offers these three evenings in devotion to the Divine Mother.
About the Archana
The name of the Archana describes the worship itself. In an Ashtottarashatanama Archana, the one hundred and eight sacred names of the Divine Mother are offered one by one; a Dravya Archana offers sacred materials with those names.
Three-day programme
The Mahotsav is a single Anushthan observed across three consecutive evenings. Each day it is held from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM IST.
