Amavasya (New Moon Kriya)

A Sacred Journey of Inner Cleansing, Renewal & Spiritual Awakening

Amavasya, or the New Moon, holds a special place in the spiritual traditions of India. For centuries, yogis, saints, and spiritual seekers have observed this sacred lunar phase as a powerful time for introspection, meditation, prayer, and inner purification. It is traditionally regarded as an opportunity to let go of negative thoughts, cultivate self-awareness, and begin a new cycle of spiritual growth.

At Shri Shri Gita Society, the Amavasya (New Moon Kriya) program is a special monthly spiritual practice designed to help participants reconnect with themselves through meditation, pranayama, mantra chanting, silence, self-reflection, and prayer. The focus of this program is to create a peaceful environment where individuals can release stress, cultivate positive intentions, and strengthen their spiritual discipline.

According to the yogic tradition, Amavasya symbolizes a fresh beginning. Just as the moon enters a new cycle, individuals are encouraged to reflect on their lives, release emotional burdens, forgive themselves and others, and move forward with renewed clarity and purpose.

Our New Moon Kriya sessions begin with guided breathing exercises that calm the mind and prepare the body for meditation. Participants are then guided through silent meditation, sacred mantra chanting, and contemplative practices inspired by the teachings of the Bhagavad Gita and other classical yogic texts. These practices are intended to support relaxation, mindfulness, and spiritual reflection.

The program also includes discussions on gratitude, compassion, selfless service (Seva), and conscious living, encouraging participants to bring spiritual values into their everyday lives.
