WELCOME TO SHREE SHAKTI MANDIR
*Life is a cycle of defining moments from birth till death, each moment has its own memories, the 16 stages in life are celebrated with pujas known as the Solasanskar in the karmakand. The Vedas and the Purans has prescribed the rituals and the rights for these different stages in a human life. The most popular of the Holly books the Bhagwat Geeta describes Kramakand karmayog, Rajyog and Bhaktiyog.
It is unfortunate many of the ancient philosophy and rituals get distorted in 21st.century by house wife tales and even worse by the present day gurus and somewhat sophisticated appearing disciplines such as the Bhramakumaries the B.K.who while extract the essence of Raj yog from the Bhagwat geeta and conduct funeral services without chhatspindi Sardh or the last rights the rites of the deceased no pind sanyojan no sardh kariya and advocate to feed every one without the karmkand , well no one should eat anything at their home in these circumstances as they are in Shutak.
Shree Sanatan Dharma, the 16 stages of life, losses it's very purpose when a person over 12-year-old, the Batuk, vows for celibacy to gain education, at the Yagnopavit , Janeu, Upanay " the sacred thread ceremony ", at his wedding ; while ; at the age of 13 puberty sets in .
GAURI POJAN : we worship young girls as Gauris our daughters . FGM . MGM . Genital Mutalation.
Key facts
Female genital mutilation (FGM) involves the partial or total removal of external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reasons.
The practice has no health benefits for girls and women.
FGM can cause severe bleeding and problems urinating, and later cysts, infections, as well as complications in childbirth and increased risk of newborn deaths.
More than 200 million girls and women alive today have been cut in 30 countries in Africa, the Middle East and Asia where FGM is concentrated (1).
FGM is mostly carried out on young girls between infancy and age 15.
FGM is a violation of the human rights of girls and women.
WHO is opposed to all forms of FGM, and is opposed to health care providers performing FGM (medicalization of FGM).
Treatment of health complications of FGM in 27 high prevalence countries costs 1.4 billion USD per year.
Female genital mutilation (FGM) comprises all procedures that involve partial or total removal of the external female genitalia, or other injury to the female genital organs for non-medical reason.
No health benefits, only harm. REFERANCE: WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION.
In the 4 Vedas the 18 Purans and the 18 Uppurans there is no such practice but a sin. Vyas pithh is a platform where a Kathakar such as Murari Bapu and Asharam Bapu seats to recite from The Vedas The Purans and The Upurans; do not be misguided from such an important platform.

TESTIMONIALS
Pundit ji conduct an excellent puja for me which left me feeling positive and revitalised he takes great care in explaining why the puja is necessary and explaining the meanings of the various verses which makes it all the more engaging. He is very kind man and look forward to seeing him again.
AKASH TRVEDI, Rudra Abhishekh and Gandmoll Nakshatra Shanti.
Namaste Panditji 🙏, My father in law passed away in June 2020 and we could not travel to India due to the corona covid 19 issues and no flights . We were feeling sad and searching in the UK if there is some place to do the 12th day rituals and luckily found your website who does all the 4 days rituals in 1 day and glad we decided on the 12th day morning and you asked us to travel same day as its done on 12th or 13th day. We were really pleased that even during this corona time you were taking up only private appointments for rituals per family and the way you performed all the rituals, even explained us the meaning and did the Pinda kriya, Shuddi, Shraddh and Havan was so nicely done and highly recommendable . Thank you so much :-)

Pranaams Panditji Dipak, I have now returned to Norfolk. I didn't have your number on my phone and so I am letting you know by email. Much gratitude 🙏🏿 to you for conducting the prayers at home and at Mortlake. You made us feel at peace even though our minds felt so turbulent. I am very grateful for the care and sincerity that you showed us at this difficult time. I hope you are well and that Shakti Temple in Talbot Road continues to spread a beautiful aura around all those fortunate enough to benefit from it.

Dear Punditji We would like to thank you and your wife for the ceremony that was carried out for us - very good explanation of the mantras and sincerity in carrying it out as per religious rules. Please upload this email as feedback Kindest regards
SUCHITRA AND JAYANTH ., Funeral and Post death ceremony.
All of our guests and family absolutely loved how funny and relaxed Dipak made the ceremony. Dipak was amusing, entertaining and insightful and really made our day. My husband and a lot of our friends are British so it was very important that Dipak was able to explain the traditions of a Hindu ceremony simply whilst involving a lot of different people. I was worried that a Hindu ceremony may be quite long (including translations and explanations) but after discussing with Dipak we identified the important parts of the Hindu ceremony that we wanted. Dipak was always available either by phone, text or email and helped us have a truly memorable day especially traveling a long distance to carry out our ceremony in Sussex in the summer of 2019. Thank you so much for making our day so enjoyable. Raisa and Jules

Text: Please add my testimonial Panditji. We needed an authentic funeral service performed professionally by a well practised priest to allow for a smooth journey onward for our departed mother. We received that and much more from Panditji Dipak, a kind , helpful and knowledgeable soul who put us all at ease . We are grateful. Dr Sanjay

Hi Dipakbhaiji, RE: JSK, as per my promise I would like you to add my testimonial to your website. Thank you ever such a lot to perform a Vaastu Havan and a Satyanarayana Kath at my new home in Bracknell Heath. I have witnessed many of the Hindu Rituals with my friends and relatives since I was a young child. My family and friends really talk a lot about you and discuss the rituals you performed on the day with through explanations of Vedas and the Puranas the difference between divine and mortal earth the ethos. You were simply great. You captivated us with your humour as well the explanations of contemporary sciences in relations to Shree Sanatan Dharma which was so great would like to invite you again. I am sorry you were fined as we are on a new estate I have emailed to the council and spoke to them we will be fine as regards to the fine. We enjoyed seeing you again on Holi at your Shree Shakti Mandir had a great darshan and thank you for your blessings while playing Holi with us. Kind regards; Nandini Mayawati Yadav.

Highly recommend for Hindu Wedding. Dipak bhai was our priest for our Hindu wedding in July 2018. I came across Dipak bhai using Google search engine and called the number on his website. I was quick to choose Dipak bhai as my Maraj as he came across friendly, passionate and very knowledgeable. He was always easy to reach by phone, emails and WhatsApp messages. Dipak bhai performed a small Hindu ceremony at my house in London and at our wedding in Iver; for me it was very important that my Maraj spoke English as my husband is not Hindu and I wanted his friends and family to understand the ceremony. The ceremonies were traditional and well explained on the day. Dipak bhai is very helpful in catering to our requirements and timings of the day. He helped us build a schedule for the main day so that proceedings could run as smoothly as possible. Dipak bhai is very likeable and delivered exceptionally on the day and this was greatly noticed by all our guests who continue to tell us how much they enjoyed the ceremony because of Dipak bhai’s fun and warm nature. My husband and I were very happy with Dipak bhai and would recommend him to our friends and family for their religious ceremonies as he brought to our traditional Indian wedding, joy, humour, warmth and blessedness.

Message : Dipak Pandit ji did house warming ceremony for us at our flat in Chertsey in dec 2011. We found pandit ji's details by searching for hindu priest on internet. That was the first time we performed Havan and we felt so blessed after completing the ritual. Pandit jis attention to detail, doing every ritual as it should is marvellous. English translation of mantras is the highlight, which made it so easy for us to understand the reason for each ritual, some how when blessing us he said next I will be comming to bless your house . We visited to Shakti Mandir to get blessings from pandit ji when we bought new car. And now we bought a house in Ashford August 2014 its Dipak Pandit ji who did hosuewarming for us i.e Ganapati Puja followed by Havan. Also did puja for our Kuldevta and our ancestors it made us so contended after the process to be able to worship them & get blessings. We see the same dedication,enthusiasm and sense of humour in pandit ji which we witnessed three years ago. Our family n friends who attended the Puja were all praising Pandit ji for the wonderful ceremony. This time Panditji said I will come to bless your palace next ,we said we only want your blessings we felt the precesnce of Gods and Goddess each time , that in it self is a real blessings. Thankyou very much Pandit ji for your blessings & coming all the way to Surrey. Thanks and Regards, Chaitanya & Sreekanth.

Hi Pandit ji, I hope you remember me from mine and Joseph's (not Simon!!) wedding last July at Syon Park. We wanted to write you a testimonial for your website: We absolutely loved your ceremony as did all of our family and friends. You were the true rock and roll of the wedding - witty, entertaining and insightful. We found that you performed our wedding ceremony perfectly, capturing the essence of the true elements of a Hindu ceremony whilst catering to both Indian and British cultures. Above all, whilst maintaining the decorum of a traditional Hindu Punjabi wedding, you still entertained us all - everyone was engaged. We can't thank you enough for making our day special and for making us smile the whole way through. Thank you pandit ji. Kind regards, Sheena Sent from my iPhone DB

We at the Shree Shakti Mandir Wembley provide authentic pujas, rituals and rights while listening to your needs and advice you accordingly. Shree Sanatan Dharma is universal which was there before creation and will be there even after the Sanhar the devastation. It has a no boundary everything that is around us is all naturally Sanatani . The animal kingdom the plant kingdom the Universe that we know of as well as the one beyond us about which we know little about is all Sanatani.
Hindu Religion and the word Hindu has a very narrow meaning to it as that was used to describe the people who lived in the Indus Valley civilization who practiced this Sanatan Dharma. Sanatan Dharma is for everyone, everyone is a born Sanatani but which ever Prophet, Saint or Guru you chose to follow in the name of GOD gives you a religious I.D. So no one can convert to Hindu or Sanatan Dharma, from birth and by the natural position within the creation everyone and everything is Sanatani.
In this modern time and age where we actively integrate with the world at large inter cast weddings may seem as though it is new but in the Mahabharata and the Purans there has been ample inter cast weddings Hadambas wedding being amongst many.
