We conduct all our programmes with a view to preserving and furthering Sanatana Dharma. Some of them are as follows:
- Annual Upakarma: Upakarma is an annual Vedic ritual on Shravana Pournami day, where practitioners change their sacred thread (Yajnopavita) and symbolically restart their Vedic studies. In pursuit of upholding Vedic values among the followers The Trust is conducting annual Upakarma

- Durgasukta Parayana During Navaratri: The Trust conducts Krishna Yajur Veda Durga Sukta Parayana. It is the disciplined recitation of the Durga Suktam, a revered Vedic hymn found within the Taittiriya Aranyaka of the Krishna Yajurveda. It is one of the most significant Vedic prayers used during Navaratri to invoke the divine protection and strength of Goddess Durga. Following are the phalitams as per our Sastras.
- Removal of Obstacles: The word “Durga” literally refers to that which is “difficult to cross”. The Parayana is performed to seek the Goddess’s help in crossing the “ocean of life” and overcoming severe hardships, enemies, and karmic blocks.
- Invocation of Agni Durga: Most of the mantras in the Durga Suktam address Agni (the God of Fire), who is viewed as the fiery energy or form of Durga known as Agni Durga. Fire symbolizes purification and the destruction of negativity, making it a central theme during the transformative period of Navaratri.
- Psychological and Spiritual Strength: The rhythmic vibrations of these Vedic mantras are believed to instill courage, remove fear, and provide mental clarity for those facing constant struggles or uncertainty.
- Universal and Family Protection: Performing the Parayana at home is said to create a “spiritual shield” (Kavacha) that protects the household from negative influences, “evil eyes,” and astrological doshas.
- Attaining Liberation (Moksha): Beyond worldly benefits, the final goal of the Parayana is to purify the consciousness and lead the devotee toward spiritual liberation
