Pancha(?) suktam / Gosha Shanti in tamil script

January 13, 2005

#1. I'm eager to know why do we call "Pancha suktam" when there are

actaully six suktam in it. Namely Purusha suktam, Narayana suktam,

Vishnu Suktam, SrI suktam, Bhu suktam, and Nila Suktam.

#2. Does anybody have Gosha Shanti mantram in Tamil scripts. I could

find Gosha shanti in Grandam and devanagiri script only. I searched

in book stores and online like Prapatti to find only the pancha

shanthi/santhi panchagam and not Gosha shanti in tamil. Can any once

share it with me if you find one.

Thanks in advance.

Adiyen,Sriman narayanan.

Dear Sriman Narayanan Kidambi:

It is common practise to count Narayana anuvAkam

with VishNu Sooktham , which results in the countdown

of FIVE instead of SIX ,

BEST WISHES,

Pancha(?) suktam / Gosha Shanti in tamil script

I read one of the article in sadagopan.org about "are Bhu Devi , NILA

devi to be taken as consorts Of VishNu?". It was very informative

and cleared my doubts longing for few years. This raised one more

doubt on the word "Pancha" - meaning five.
