Respected Sir,

 

Your writeup on Lord Hayagreeva is just wonderful. I am

enlightened.

I shall be grateful if you would kindly let me know the following :

 

1. I understand that Lord Hayagreeva Jayanthi falls on

September 10th.

Pl advise if any special vratam is to be observed on this

day.

 

2. Which flower, in particular, which is preethi to Lord to be

offered.

 

3. Any special naivaidyam to be offered to Lord.

 

A more elaborate explanation is requested.

Dear Sri Narayanan,

 

Sri Satakopan is on official tour. I take liberty in answering.

 

1. I understand that Lord Hayagreeva Jayanthi falls on

September 10th. Pl advise if any special vratam is to be observed on this

day.

 

You may like to recite Swamy Desikan's Hayagriva sthOthram. If you don't know

just recite

 

JnAnandamayam dEvam nirmala spatikAkruthim

aadhAram sarva vidhyAnAm HayagrIvam upAsmahE..

 

 

2. Which flower, in particular, which is preethi to Lord to be offered.

 

You may use "arugam pul" a kind of grass that grows with roots well sperad out.

If you try to pluck, the roots are about a foot away. If not availavle, use

jasmine flowers. Lotus will be great.

 

More than everything, removal of our ahamkaram, mamakaram, kaamam, (desires on

everything else except Him), anger, greed, etc., is that He wants to be

offered.

 

3. Any special naivaidyam to be offered to Lord.

 

You may use "kadalaip paruppu suNdal", as it is the most favourite for Horse.

Also milk (warm, little sweet) will be excellent.

Dear Narayanan and devotees,

 

Where is this information of Lord Hayagriva jayanti? Is it on a specific Sri

Vaishnava calendar or in any acarya's work?

 

Thanks
