Literally translated as “the mood of the Divine Mother,” Devi Bhava is a very special event that celebrates the feminine aspect of God, and God’s unconditional love and compassion for all humanity. It is a traditional, joyful celebration when Amma gives darshan as the Divine Mother in the manner symbolized by the Hindu tradition.
In other words, the Hindu version of a worship service. I went to the Devi Bhava in L.A. last year. Though my splitting migraine got the better of me and I had to leave shortly after the service ended and the darshan (see the vid below, about 2:30 in) began, it was a great joy to celebrate and feel God's presence in the ballroom.
Can't wait to see what happens this year. I best get to practicing a few bhajans . . just a few weeks left.
