Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Dear Sarvashree Vishnu & Devika, Kindly explain the reference to the context appended. “Om Akhandala mandalaakaaram vyaptam yena charaa charam tatpadam darsita yena tasmai sri gurave namaha” Does the captioned sloka explain the mahutva of Guru Deva’s paadaaravindam or every one’s Paadaas including that of the deceased ? if worshipping of the deceased paadam could bestow eternal bliss, why should Hindus care about 'Purudu'? Regards, D.SathiyanarayanaGupta. --- Devika Dhillon <devikadhillon wrote: > Namaste Vishnu, > This makes sense.Thanks for the clarification. > > Devika. > > Vishnu Jandhyala <jvishnu wrote: > Ms.Devika > > Namaste, > > In mantra shastra it is believed that "feet" have > "shakti" which gives us direction.Probably, one > reason that can be attributed is we, seek that > shakti of direction! > > warm regards, > Vishnu > > -- > Om Akhandala mandalaakaaram > vyaptam yena charaa charam > tatpadam darsita yena > tasmai sri gurave namaha > > On 8/12/05, kartheek_v2000 > <kartheek_v2000 wrote:Dear All > > How is this related to astrology? > kartheek > > vedic astrology, "Bharat" > <hinduastrology@g...> wrote: > > Namaskaar Sri Devika > > > > You always touch feet of someone you respect.
