Vidhi Vidhan

[Guest guest]

My dear friends and like minded persons

 

This is the answer I desire to give to the group members who have most curiously

placed before me their question. Most of you might be upset as to how sankalpa

has to be uttered in the absence of the Purohit or priest, and again how to

utter the difficult Sanskrit words coupled with a feeling that wrong utterance

of the mantra leads to some problem etc. Please remember the Sanskrit version

of sankalpa is nothing but speaking clearly what is in your mind and it is not

MANTRA. People are mistaking the texts or running matters in Sanskrit as

MANTRA. They are not mantras, they are utterances of our desires and making the

purpose clear in front of Lord and it is as simple as that. There is nothing

wrong to fold your hands in front of HIM and pray for HIS grace in any language

of your choice. The relationship between Lord and ourselves SHOULD EVER REMAIN

AS THAT OF A FATHER AND CHILD.

 

Some children cry and express their desire for some milk when are in arms;

someone sweetly express when they start learning the words; and someone may

clearly indicate when they grownup – there makes no difference for the Father to

understand what it is and what the heart of the child is. Don’t you remember an

elephant crying for help in GAJENDRA MOKSHA, what language did it use?.

 

There are number of instances when Lord granted Moksha for those who innocently

surrender to him like Bhakta Kannappa – a tribal, Tinnadu; and sometime he

granted Moksha for those who totally involve themselves in taking the Lords name

24hours/30 days/12months /and forever all times like the case of Ramdas,

Thyagaraju etc. There fore my request you all not to worry about the

procedural aspect and waste the valuable time.

 

Then again another question about the vidhi vidhan, again here too, there is not

much to worry about. The first step is – do whatever you feel like doing

totally surrendering to the Lord; a little above this step – a little vidhi

vidhan like offering chandan, flowers, dhoop, deep and Nivedan which are called

in the ritualistic system as Pancha Poojaas and a little above this one can go

for Shodasopachara Poojaas and like this step by step. A person who knows the

shodasopachara pooja, he enjoys performing what is known to him, someone who

knows only Pancha Pooja he too enjoys performing what is known to him – in other

words – it is an individual perception of enjoyment of making a Seva to the

Lord. I hope I am clear.

 

The last question was that of lamp. One can lit one lamp initially and the best

oil for this purpose is sesame oil or cow ghee. Please remember the sacred

material when burned it transforms into a sacred energy. For example, if one

wishes to burn a red chillie, probably none can dare to stay nearby, though it

is a just 2 gms wt chillie, it makes hundreds to shed tears – it is the power

of the sookshma roopa. Always science can not explain the reason, but on most

occasions LOGIC OR TARKA SASTRA CAN explain us something about the realities. In

the Normal pooja vidhan, the sudarshan is represented by Cow Ghee lamp and it is

placed on the right side of the Lord; when the sesame oil lamp is represented as

Pasupat on the left side of the Lord.

 

I always suggest to keep a dry fruit as NIVEDAN with a purpose that the dry

fruit can be eaten even on the next day and it does not get spoiled. Therefore,

we suggest this procedure – the simplest possible procedure of these lamps and

PANCHOPACHARA poojas. In normal routine it is advisable to keep one lamp on

each side of the Lord making a total of two lamps. Always and always – my

system is, to make each one of you able to do perform the ritual on your own

without any dependence. That is the reason why I have written 40 Gayathri

Mantras for conveniently performing even Sri Satyanarayana Pooja too. The Hindi

version of the book Lakshmi Sadhana No 3 is relevant to performing of Havan.

 

In certain cases it is inevitable to take the assistance of learned pundits for

performing certain rituals which would become compulsory, leaving such extreme

cases basically one should be self sufficient. There is nothing to fear from

Father and Mother – as long as you possess and maintain the same relationship.

 

Learned and knowledgeable persons of the group may add their opinion to modify

my way of approach to the system so that I can continue to guide people on right

path in the right direction. I accept, I am a learner and in the process of

learning.

 

First of all, let me inform you that the news which I received from some

source and which was reproduced in my mail, HAS BEEN MADE KNOWN TO ME AS A

RUMOR, THEREFORE DO NOT TAKE THE FOLLOWING NEWS INTO CONSIDERATION. WRONG

………………….27 August, 2006 - Two moons will be visible. WRONG………………

 

Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August. It will look

as large as the full moon to the naked eye. This will OCCUR on Aug. 27 when Mars

comes within 34.65M miles of Earth.

Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like The Earth has 2

Moons. Don't Miss it.

 

The next time Mars may come like this close only in 2287.
