navrathri

[Guest guest]

Hello

Further to my mail to u regarding vasantha navrathri celebrations,i furnish

the following information about its significance and my way of doing it.

As per my Guru'sguidance, i install three kalasas (one each for Mathangi

Varahi and Lalitha) duly decorated and filled with Ganges water mixed

with herbs specifically selected for each akshara of the moola manthras of

deities on the first day of suklapaksha (i.e prathamai thithi ;ugadhi coincides

with this day and continues for ten days) visarjana on the tenth day and

ends with self abhisheka)when prana prathishta is done on the first.

a kangana is ties and i will not move out of the house once it is done.

beginning with mahaganapathi homam the festival starts. everday evening

and morning navavarna puja for lalitha and avarana pujs s for mathangi

and varahi. on the panchamiday we do varahi homa and on navami day

we do mathangi homa and on ashtamiday chandi homa and on dasami day

srividya homa.everyday suvasinis representing the three deities are

worshipped. on the tenthday as soons as navavarna puja is completed

and when nivedyam is offerred 10 or 16 suvasinies are invited and with

all upachars nivedyam is directly offerred to them after that when they

have been served with all sowbhagya dravyams,bali etc is given and

the kalasa thirtham is poured on us(myself and my family) thus ends

the festival. it would be ver very blissful. other details in my next.

Namasthe viswarupaji.

after hearing from u i wished to write one instant in

my life about a german saint.his name was gowribala.

on his hand the word "SUMMA IRU" was written.when

i was a child (age 12 years).he left german as a boy

and walked to kolkatta kali temple.he was residing

at Jaffna in srilanka. when my guru(father) was searching

for clarification of a doubt, my dad met him and travelled

along with him in a bus to kodaikanal on business.

both were sitting side by side.suddenly this gentleman

touched my father's lap and enquired r u searching

for an answer to a doubt.astonishingly my dad said

yes.this German told him to ask for a number out of

108 to my youngest sister ( Her name is Lalitha) as

soon as he reached his home and see that sloka

in soundaryalahari. my father did it and found

answer. these are all very mysterious.The German

is a stranger and how does he know that i am having

an younger sister.That man was invited to our house

since he was a sanyasi and mother devotee.

i last met him in the year 1955 afterwards i could

not see him.

>Om,

>>Have we achieved a figure of 108 members in our group?

i am very anxious to know about it.i would like to know

the names, Nakshathras, gothram(if possible) and their

photos of them. how can i get it.<<

 

There are 93 members at present. The names you can get from the members list

at /members. You'll have to log in with

the ID and password you laid down when you signed up. The nakshatras etc.

you can get only from the members personally. Whoever wishes to give them

may send them to you personally. That is better than their posting them to

the group, because the postings go into archives that can be searched

publicly.

 

Thank you for wishing to include all of us in your pujas.

 

My nakshatra is Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. I have no gotra from birth, since

I was born to German parents, but my Guru gave me Vasishtha gotra.

 

Om OM Om,
