Purasharanam

[Guest guest]

Dear Sir,

I think i can tell you something about purascharanam.

The learned members of the group may correct me if i

am incorrect.

 

Purascharanam is a four step procedure in which any

given mahamantra is practised for mantra siddhi/devata

preeti.

these steps are as follows..

1. japam. for devata preeti.

2. Tarpanam (1/10 of the qty. of japam for

balavriddhi)

3. Homam (1/10 of the qty. of tarpanam for sharu

uccatanam)

3. Homam (1/10 of the qty. of tarpanam for sharu

uccatanam)

4. Brahmana bhojanam for prosperity. ( Again 1/10 of

the previous procedure.)

 

A properly drafted sankalpam is done which specifies

the date time and location of the person performing

the purascharanam and also the qty. and the procedure

which one is performing addressing the deity in

question.

 

There are certain rules set for purascharanam which

have been followed from the ancient days.

1. Strict brahmacharyam is practiced. ( Though i don

not understand this very well as we are born in this

age.I wuld expect the learned members of the group to

elaborate this.

 

2. One should avoid eating out . There were practises

which restrict the use of salt in food.

 

3. Even crossing the river was avoided during the time

when purascharanam was in progress. I say so 'cause it

depends upon the sankhya the person has vowed for

could take him from a single day to an year. and the

rules specify that the person should perform this in

the same place and if possible in the same time also,

everyday till the desired sankhya is achieved. In the

olden days bridges etc were not very common which

may have been the reason for such rules.

4. No oil bath during the procedure as it promotes

laziness.

 

I have illustrated everything that i know. I leave

this open for comments now.

 

Thank you.

 

Regards

In Kali Yuga as it is very difficult to do Purashcharanam , my Guru used to tell

me to do the manthra japa Four times the required numbers in lieu of tharpanam,

homam and Brhamana Bhojanam. To take an example if one requires to do 50,000

tarpanam, 5000 homam,and 500 bhojanam to brahmins the number required for japa

would be 222,000.

Specific months and special places Where if purascharanam is done would yield

quick results.( i vaguely remember as River banks of holy rivers, near temples

on mountains etc ). It is also the Guru who would instruct you about the number

of japa required before doing the purascharanam.

 

Great saints like Saint Thyagaraja have done purascharanam in this fashion as

per information from my Guruji.
