Nithyanandeshwara Hindu Temple Los Angeles celebrated Deepavali on October 26, 2019. This day also marked the 12th anniversary of the temple and the festivities went well into the night, including offering of Pratyaksha Pada Puja, Live Satsang, Kali Arati, and dinner. Los Angeles offered 108 Naivediyams and also formally invited HDH to the celebrations through the Mandagapadi ritual. This day we also celebrated First Blessing Day, the day in which Swamiji gave his first blessing "Anandamaaga Irungal" (meaning "Be Blissful!") after the realization of his Avataric Mission while in Samadhi. On this the 12th Anniversary of the temple Los Angeles was also blessed to host Live 2 way satsang with Swamiji's Divya Shareera via the 7D Hologram Technology with a larger than life Swamiji projected onto a 10'x17' screen; the first of it's size to be used for Divya Shareera Darshan! The night ended with offering of Arati to Maha Kali, Mahaprasad given to attendees and dinner.
