Invitations Devotees throughout the world celebrate the anniversaries of Shivabalayogi's birth on January 24, 1935, and his completion of twelve years of tapas on August 7, 1961. Mahashivaratri -- the annual Great Night of Shiva which date, like Easter, varies from year-to-year because it is based on a lunar calendar -- is the most auspicious time to honor Shivabalayogi's Divine Guru, so it is also the occasion for a great celebration, especially in Adivarapupeta. These annual celebrations have been occasions for printed invitations for all devotees to attend and share in the divine blessings. There is a long history of such invitations, and their artwork and expressions of devotion make them of particular interest. They are a way in which devotees communicate with each other. Here are some recent examples.
