Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 Dear Raviji, pranams. Very well said . Sringeri Mutt -- HH Jagadguru Chandra Sekhara Bharathi used to do the Lalitha sahasranama archana this way as indicated -- That is by dwelling into the inner meaning and HE used to contemplate on it till it gets " INTERNALISED " . HE used to start the LS archana at 6 Am in the morning and by the time he would complete it , it would be 8 PM. It is no wonder such exercise would make any one as DEVI and the Advaitha Bhava would prevail through out one's life. While such an attempt by Shree Ravi - a Grushta is a wonderful achievement in term of spiritual efforts and attainment, one need not worry that He is not able to do that in that fashion. Quote -- as per Kaanchi " Maha Swamy's talk -- ( DeivaththinKural part 6 ) HE says -- " Even a mechanical recitation of mantras WITHOUT EVEN Bhakthi ( includes LS ) has immense benefit and very certain to lead the sadhak in the right direction and that is attributed to the sound effect and power of " Mantras ". So devotees pl try to approach as per Shree Ravi's guidelines but do not be unduly concerned, if you are not able to do that way for compelling reasons where the Nithya anushtanams cover a number of Japas, abhishekas, Parayanas apart from Nithya karmas and sometimes Nymithya Karmas such as tarpanas and shraddas to be done followed by the daily ritual to handle the office for material reasons. Before one adopts Devi -- remember SHE has adopted you before you did. Therefore She is there to take care of you in what ever manner you may remember HER.

If you know the naamavali by heart, just use a brief translation as a guide to focus on the names and make sure you do not miss anything. Try to recollect name based on the meaning and for a brief period dwell into the name as you say it. .. Better to keep the translation to 1 or two lines. But be aware of the full scope of the name by reading a commentary (at leisure). You may have to go back and forth. -- pradiipajvaalaabhirdivasakaraniiraajanavidhiH sudhaasuuteshcandropalajalalavairarghyaracanaa . svakiiyairambhobhiH salilanidhisauhityakaraNaM tvadiiyaabhirvaagbhistava janani vaacaaM stutiriyam.h www : http://www.ambaa.org/ Contact: help / Ganapathy --- Vijaya " Jai Bhavani " - - - - " Jai Sri Lalitha Maha Maha Tripura Sundari " " Sarvam Shakti Mayam Jagath " Hotjobs: Enter the "Signing Bonus" Sweepstakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
