Akhand Ramayan
Friday, June 27 – Saturday, June 28, 2025
Akhand Ramayan is the practice of reading Ramayan in 24 continuous hours—a beautiful and devotional way to receive the blessings of Lord Ram and Hanuman Ji, bringing peace and prosperity. The session will start with a pre-reading puja on Friday, June 27 and conclude with haven on Saturday, June 28 by Panditji Bheemashankar, ending with a shared meal (maha prasad). Devotees can sign up to chant in 30-min intervals (typically in pairs), and bring prasad following the link below.

As we prepare for our Akhand Ramayan celebration on Friday, June 27th through evening of June 28th, we're sharing a spreadsheet to help coordinate sponsorships for food and supplies, as well as chanting sign-ups.
This is a community-led celebration, rooted in seva and devotion. Every offering—whether time, energy, or resources—helps create a sacred and joyful space for all.
