Guest guest Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 QUESTION: My name is T.K. Kasturi, Dallas, Texas. I need your spritiual guidance and advise for the following for the daily rituals: 1. Is it O.K. to do three (3) achamanams, Karanaysam and three (3) pranayams and recite Gayatri ? or Do I need to do the entire Sandhayvandanam? In the morning times (before 6:30 a.m. I stand facing north to do pooja due to the way our pooja room is setup. Do I need to sit down to do Gayatri? ANSWER: FOR MORNING SANDHYA VANDANAM THE PROCESS IS TO BE OBSERVED FULLY, WHICH WILL TAKE NOT MORE THAN 15 MINUTES, IF YOU DO GAYATHRI JAPAM FOR 108 TIMES. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THAT MUCH TIME YOU CAN REDUCE THE GAYATHRI NUMBER. OK! YOU JUST CAN SEE THE PROCESS IN OUR SANDHYA VANDANAM MULTIMIDIA VCD. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED OUR JETSANFRANCISCO PEOPLE WILL SEND YOU. FIND THE ADDRESS FROM OUR WEBSITE 'CHINNAJEEYAR.ORG' FACE ANY DIRECTION TO DOTHE PUJA, ACCORDING TO THE CONVENIENCE. BUT GAYATHRI JAPAM SHOULD BE DONE STANDING ONLY DURING MORNING AND AFTERNOON. EVENING GAYATHRI JAPAM, SHOULD BE DONE WHILE SITTING ONLY. QUESTION: Do I need to do Anga Nysa Karanysa to recite Sri.Narayana Kavacham?. Right now, I am just recting the kavacha stotra and recite Sri.Laksmi Kavacham? If you have Anganysa karanysa sholkas, it will be very helpful. - Any restrictions on this? ANSWER: WE DO NOT FIND ANY NECESSITY TO READ ANGANYA:SA AND KARA NYA:SA FOR STHO:THRAS, MAY BELONG TO ANYONE. NO RESTRICTIONS TO CHANT THEM AS SUCH. QUESTION: My mother and sister got sharanagathi done at Parakalamutt in Mysore. If I want to get sharanagathi done here in U.S. through your ashram in U.S. - If it is O.K. can you kindly recommend person's name who initiates here in U.S. ANSWER: NICE FOR YOUR INTEREST IN TAKING SAMASRAYANAM. RIGHT NOW, WE DID NOT APPOINT TO DO SAMASRAYANAM, SO FAR, IN ANY PLACES. YET WE WILL BE COMMING EVERY YEAR ALMOST. SO, WHENEVER WE WILL BE THERE, YOU CAN CONTACT US . WE WILL TRY TO COME THERE. BETTER TO TAKE SAMASRAYANAM THERE ITSELF. =CHINNAJEEYAR= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
