Join us every evening for a sacred journey through the Bhakti Yoga chapter of the Bhagwad Gita during the most auspicious month of Kartik Maas
Kartik Maas, the eighth month of the Hindu lunar calendar, is considered the most sacred and spiritually auspicious month of the year. Known also as "Damodar Maas," it is especially dear to Lord Krishna and Lord Vishnu, offering devotees unparalleled opportunities for spiritual advancement.
During this blessed month, even the smallest acts of devotion are believed to yield manifold spiritual benefits. The ancient scriptures declare that devotional practices performed during Kartik Maas bring blessings multiplied many times over, making it the perfect time for our 30-day Chapter 12 recital commitment.
Chapter 12 - Bhakti Yoga (The Yoga of Devotion) is the shortest yet one of the most profound chapters of the Bhagwad Gita. It beautifully explains the path of pure devotion and describes the qualities of a true devotee who is most dear to the Supreme Lord.
By reciting this chapter daily during Kartik Maas, we align ourselves with the divine energy of this sacred period and cultivate the devotional qualities that lead to spiritual liberation.
Experience the transformative power of collective chanting and devotion from the comfort of your home

Chapter 12 of the Bhagwad Gita, titled "Bhakti Yoga" or "The Yoga of Devotion," is a profound dialogue where Lord Krishna explains the supreme path of loving devotion. This chapter addresses Arjuna's question about whether worship of the personal form or the impersonal aspect is superior.
"Among all months, Kartik is most beloved to Lord Vishnu. Even a small act of devotion in this month yields immense fruit." — Padma Purana
Join devotees from across the UK and beyond in reciting all 20 verses of Chapter 12 together, creating a powerful spiritual atmosphere.
Receive brief explanations and practical applications of the verses to help integrate these timeless teachings into your daily life.
Cultivate the 26 divine qualities described in Chapter 12 and deepen your connection with the Supreme through consistent practice.
Following our Kartik Maas Sankalp, we will continue our devotional journey into Purushottam Maas, the sacred extra month that appears approximately every three years in the Hindu lunar calendar.
Originally known as "Adhik Maas" or "Mal Maas," this extra month was considered inauspicious until it sought refuge with Lord Vishnu. Moved by compassion, Lord Vishnu blessed this month with His own name "Purushottam" (the Supreme Person) and declared that He Himself would preside over it.
Purushottam Maas is therefore considered supremely auspicious for all devotional, spiritual, and charitable activities. Those who absorb their minds in satsang and hearing the divine pastimes during this time grow rapidly on their spiritual path by the grace of the Lord.

Let us come together in devotion during this most auspicious Kartik Maas. Through our collective recitation of Chapter 12, may we all cultivate the divine qualities that make us dear to the Supreme Lord.
"Those who worship Me with devotion, meditating on My transcendental form—to them I carry what they lack and preserve what they have."
