The Boston Sr Kalikambal Shiva Temple is hosting a grand Shivarathri Celebration. For more information, please check out http://www.bskst.org/
"Kalau Nama Sankeerthanam Moksha Prapthy Ithi Smruthi (According to Puranas, the easy way to reach god in Kali Yuga is participating in Nama Sankeerthanam). By the grace of Omkareswarar and with the blessings of Sri Kalikambal, for the very first time we are going to celebrate the Kotti Vara Shiva Panchakshra Japa Yagya. According to Saiva Saints, not talking about Lord Shiva is equivalent to being never born (Pesadhe Naal Ellam, Piravadhe Naale).Please use this unique opportunity to chant “Om Nama Sivaya” Japam at the temple in front of 3 Sahasra Lingams 10 million times (1 Kotti) and seek the blessings of Lord Shiva" says the priest Bhairava Sundaram.
