  Om Shakti! The unique specialty of celebrating Navaratri every year in Shakti Peetam is the AKHANDA Dheepam . When the Universal Supreme Mother AdhiParaShakti descended on this earth as a Spiritual Guru in the form of Shri Bangaru Adigalaar, fondly and respectfully addressed as 'Amma' (Ammavaaru, Maa, Mother), She showed us different methods to helps us all the souls progress through our spiritual journey.  Spiritual journey, which is the life's journey is on a karmic path and is dictated and regulated by everything we did, and we do both in mind and body.
