2. Aksharas & Gunintas
Our main focus is to bring Vaak shuddhi, Maatra shuddhi, and Swara Shuddhi, which is achieved mainly through Akshara Shuddhi while pronouncing the Vedic Mantras. Since the Shabdham (the sound) is the most important aspect of the Vedas. Since the energy of the Vedas is expressed through the sound waves, it’s very important to put efforts into preserving this Shabdham. Listening to this Shabdham and uttering this Shabdham accurately without any error is the main motive of our Peetham.
You are highly encouraged to attend the classes, listen, and follow various Vedic chanting rules that are provided below. Listening to the audios helps us understand and learn the correct pronunciation of matrukas.

4. Sri Devi Kshama Prardhana
Kshama Prarthana is a request for forgiveness or an expression of seeking pardon. It is a humble plea for someone to forgive any mistakes, wrongdoings, or offenses committed knowingly or unknowingly. The essence of the prayer is to acknowledge one’s faults and ask for forgiveness with a sincere and remorseful heart. Goddess RajaRajeshwari is an ocean of mercy. The following script is intended for requesting her pardon for the offenses we do in the process of invoking her, worshiping her and sending her off. Also, we request her to fulfill our puja/offerings by ignoring the mistakes we have done due to our ignorance.
