Padabhivandamamulu!!

 

1)

I wear 'Tulasi Mala' . I donot know at what times I should take it out like

while bathing. Are there any strict things I should follow while wearing Tulasi

Mala. Because I never removed them at any time they became very soft and one or

two were broken. Elders told me that every vaishnavaite should wear this. Hence

I purchases from Jeeyar Mutt and wore as suggested. But I do not know when I

should take it out in a day.

Please clear my doubt.

 

 

2)

I have few doubts regarding Sandhyavandanam. In Sandhyavandanam, we chant

'Gayatri Mantram'. I have a doubt- is Gayatri is a godess or should we think

Lord Suryanarayan while we chant Gayatri Mantram. I heard somewhere that Goddess

Gayatri doesn't exist but it is Lord Suryanarayan only. I follow Sandhyavandanam

book printed by JET. In that there are acts called 'Anganyasa' and 'Karanyasa'.

I did not understand what should I do while reading them. I had upanayanam and

panchasanskarams from You, in 1995 in Visakhapatnam. Because I was at the age of

13, I could not understand and know what should I do. I started taking

Sripadatheertham and doing Sandhyavandanam after 5 years, with the grace of Sri

Sri Ramachandra Ramanuja Jeeyar Swamy Varu who explained me all about this. I

came to know that these activities are to be done daily without any break. But

due to the lack of knowledge (Ajnana) I could not perform for 5 years. I regret

for my Ajnana. I am afraid that because these activities were not performed

daily, I am incurred with sins. I will be obiliged to You, if you clarify my

doubts. As I am disciple to You, I request You to bless me to serve You for my

whole life. I'll not get this golden chance if I miss in this life.
