The largest Mata ki Chowki and traditional Kanya Pujan were held in Europe

Bhakt Parivar Finland, a registered non-profit Indian cultural association in Finland, hosted the first traditional Navaratri Mahotsav on a grand scale in Helsinki on October 12, 2024. The event featured Mata ki Chowki, Kanya Pujan, Kids Garba, Garba, Maha Aarti, and Maha Prasad. This marked a significant milestone, as it was the first time such a large-scale traditional Navaratri celebration was organized in Finland, free of charge, in line with the customs of Sanatan Dharma.

The largest Mata ki Chowki and Kanya Pujan in Europe.

For the first time in Finland, devotees organized the largest Mata ki Chowki and a grand Kanya Pujan. Over 60 girls were worshipped according to cultural traditions, and the devotees present were deeply immersed in devotion.

The event was supported by various religious institutions in Finland, including Shiv Mandir, Murugan Mandir, Sai Mandir, and ISKCON, as well as social associations like Bihar Jharkhand Samaj, Uttarakhand Samaj, and Himachal Samaj. Representatives from these institutions and communities attended the event.

Special guests included choreographers Saurabh Pandya and Vaibhavi Pandya, who served as judges for the Garba competition. Jay Patel provided DJ music free of charge, enchanting the audience with his beats during Garba. Photographer Sudhanshu Verma captured the joyous moments of the devotees.

Around 1,000 devotees from cities such as Helsinki, Turku, Tampere, Jyväskylä, and Kajaani participated in the Cultural Navaratri Mahotsav with great enthusiasm and devotion.

For the past two years, Bhakt Parivar Finland has been organizing free Sanatan Dharma programs for devotees, including Hanuman Chalisa path, Sundarkand path, Diwali celebrations, Hanuman Janmotsav, and now the Cultural Navaratri Mahotsav, making it the only organization in Finland to do so with the support of devotees.
