Atlanta Vedic Temple on May 1, performed its yearly biggest function of SamVeda MahaYajnya with a large gathering of faithful devotees. This year’s goal of MahaYajnya was for the re-generation of humanity, which guides all to live harmoniously and peacefully and perform deeds for the wellbeing of others in the family, society, the nation.

After the initial Vedic anthem & flag hoisting, the whole crowd distributed around multiple (42) Hawankunds and performed simultaneous Hawans with faith and devotion under the guidance of three Vedic Scholar AcharyaJis – with one of them (Acharya Ashish Darshnacharya) visiting from India. The whole complex echoed with the recitations of Vedic Mantras & the atmosphere filled with healthy fragrance of herb-mix Saamagri.



The AcharyaJis in their enlightening discourses reminded that the life is precious and short and all should strive to achieve the life’s righteous goals earlier and accept the end peacefully and fearlessly. The Chief-guests radiated out the message that faith and devotion in any deed leads to true success, which then motivates further to aim for a next higher goal.

The youth group of the temple (Aary Veer Dal) awed the audience with their recitation and explanation of selected Vedic Mantras plus singing of Bhajans. One of them (HavishKrit) challenged all to be Maanav (virtuous) and not Daanav (evil).

The discussion on the Cry-for-Humanity in life continued amongst all during sumptuous lunch, which was the courtesy of devotees from Aashiana Restaurant.

At the end, all left with a peaceful & prayerful heart – wishing that may God bless them the stimulations, so that they may always be on the Vedic path of humanity.
