Guest guest Posted April 15, 2002 Report Posted April 15, 2002 Thanks for some very specific advice, Adi! I'd just note, for our members who may be interested, that you can click on "Files" and read a series of nine Navratri lectures by Sri Swami Sivananda, three lectures each for Durga/Kali, Lakshmi, and Saraswati as Adi explained in her post. Can anyone recommend a favorite recording of Devi Mahatmyam being chanted? Thanks! Aum Maatangyai Namahe Quote
