Please join us on Wednesday February 19th for our annual Maha Shivaratri Puja
Maha Shivaratri is a Hindu festival celebrated in reverence of the God Shiva. It is also the wedding night of Lord Shiva and his consort Goddess Parvati. Unlike most Hindu festivals, which are celebrated during the day, Shivaratri is celebrated at night. More details about Shivaratri can be found by clicking here.
Additionally, Dr. Anant Rambachan, Professor of Religion at St. Olaf’s University has written an article on Huffington Post about Shivaratri which can be accessed by clicking here.
The puja will be followed by a catered vegetarian Indian dinner.
This event is free and open to all members of the Yale community. Please RSVP to the HSO Facebook page or to asha.shipman@yale.edu for catering purposes.
