Hari OM, 🙏 We know many of you have been looking forward to the Navaratri Mela this coming Saturday, October 19th. However, we are writing to share some difficult news with you. One of our cherished and core members has recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness and is facing significant complications. He is currently in the hospital, and the doctors have given him very limited time. This heartbreaking situation has profoundly affected our entire community. Considering the somber mood and the deep emotions many of us are feeling, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the mela scheduled for October 19th. We will be in touch with more information regarding refunds or rescheduling in the coming days. Additionally, Bala Vihar will remain off on Sunday, October 20th, as originally scheduled. We deeply appreciate your understanding, compassion, and patience as we navigate this challenging time together. With gratitude, The CMA Board 🙏
