Guest guest Posted March 6, 2004 Report Share Posted March 6, 2004 Dear friends, Please advise me if it is permissible to wear rudraksha mala and chant mantras during menstruation for women. Also waht is the law about wearing it for the call of nature. I have been advised by some that since all this is god's plan for human beings (menstruation and call of nature) it does not matter but another group feel strongly against it. Please give me your opinions. Also, is it O.K to chant mantras for more than 108 times? What is the significance of the number 108? Warmest regards to all.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2004 Report Share Posted March 7, 2004 Hello Cyra, Anything holy in hindu system is associated with purity; both mental and bodily. It is better to follow the tradition rather experiment new ideas....like someone points out the women are allowed to perform pooja during their MC. No one who believes in hindu system would allow that. Though the MC last for 2-4 days Shiva pooja is not allowed untill 5-7 days have passed. God does not ask you to perform pooja he / she knows your problem so why be in doubt. After all if you are a real devotee you keep thinking of the Lord all the time. Be rational and let your mind decide without becoming sentimental. If one is injured and is bleeding, or is suffering from cough how can he / she perform pooja? It is all about hygiene and cleanliness.

Well in fact you would be surprised to know that there is a temple in south india-- Adi- ParaSakthi temple where women are permitted ( no restrictions) to do pooja during the mensturation time! which is not the usual practise in many other temples where women do not do pooja neither go to temples during this time! I wonder what our other friends and simonji's views are on this subject ?
