prayer

[Guest guest]

om sri govindaya namah. if you recite vishnu sahasranamam with faith you will

get all your proper desires fulfilled. do call a group of devotees and arrange

for prasadam to be served. have harinam sankirtan performed by hare krishna or

some other devotees who represent a proper vedic / bhagavatha tradition.

depending on what you can afford give them in charity after humbly washing their

feet. if your problems are not solved, do let me know and i will refund your

cost.

Hare Krishna,

 

The easiest option for a devotee is 'Saranagati'. He/she should take

refuge of the lotus feet of Sri Guruvayoorappan and accept all joys

or sorrows in life as Bhagavan's 'prasadam'. Whatever good or bad we

are experiencing in this life are the results of our past-karma .

However, Guruvayoorappan is 'Bhaktavalsalan' and is renowned for

providing ultimate success to His devotee . The true success stories

of Melapthur Bhattathiri, Poonthanam, Kurooramma, Chemabai

Bhagavathar, etc are proof of this fact.

 

Bhagavan says in GIta :

 

Sloka 18.65

 

manmana bhava mad-bhakto / mad-yaji mam namaskuru

mam evaisyasi satyam te / pratijane priyo 'si me

(Fix your mind on Me, become My devotee, offer service to Me, bow

down to Me, and you shall certainly reach Me. I promise you because

you are My very dear friend. )

 

Sloka 18.66

 

sarva-dharman parityajya / mam ekam saranam vraja

aham tvam sarva-papebhyo / moksayisyami ma sucah

(Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me

completely with faith and devotion. I shall liberate you from all

sinful reactions. Do not grieve.)

 

A devotee

actually praying to the God without expecting any kind of reward for

their prayers.People pray for good health,money,job,children,marriage

and everso many other things.In the process they are prepared to

offer this and that vazhipadus.A type of bargaining with God.People

when they enjoy all the comforts in life which came to them because

of their Karmic deeds of earlier births and in their ego that what

they hv achieved are due to their skills and power.Shuld we accept

such a theory?Can anybody move everything by his/her own will?Who

makes a baby breath,crawl,

the help from anybody?We may call it is the nature?Then what is

nature?So we accept there is a supreme power who does everything for

every human being,animal,plant etc.

inflicted on a person according to certain well defined cosmic laws

and nobody can change the same.

> We are happy when everything goes in our favour and get depressed

when we fail in our missions.Why there is no equanimity of mind?After

all if there is no pain there is no pleasure.So for everything in

this world there is equally an opposite thing that works.So the

better part of valour shuld be to keep the mind in equanimity and

pray God for prayers sake.It is simply ridiculous to expect God to

come to our succour in all our troubled times when we are not

bothered abt Him in our time of good.The better thing is to always

think that nothing in this world belongs to us as we hv brought

nothing except our karmic deeds of past lives and leave without

taking anything except our karmic deeds good or bad with us to

continue the jouney to reach the final destination that is to reach

the Source from which we hv come.Of course such high philosophy can't

be digested by all.But still it is the fact if we ponder over the

same.Our puranas hv eversomany instances when the pious always suffer

and

> the wicked always enjoy.They hv been written only with the idea of

making the reader to realise the basic factor of the truth of

Creation.

> It is a good thing to pray always Lord Krishna or any other Deity

of ones's choice but it is too much to expect that the same will

carry them always.Things will take cae of themselves by dedicated

prayers without expecting rewards according to the karmic deeds.Karma

is supreme and even God won't interfere in one's individual karma.We

hv the cases of even divine avatars suffer due to their karmic

deeds.When Sri Rama was sent to exile Lakshmana was furious that he

will destroy everybody to get the kingdom for Rama.But Rama being an

avatar told Lakshmana to keep cool and take the same as the effects

of fate.So

> worshipping God always is a good thing as the same will calm down

the troubled mind but if results are not forthcoming He shuld not be

blamed as all depends on Karma effects.Of course prayers can to a

certain extent give mental solace and keep the mind calm.There is

nothing called accident or coincidence in this world ruled by the

laws of Nature.A really dedicated soul will realise this and pray

accordingly without expecting anything from Him not even absolute

bliss as he or she has got no control over his or her own destiny.
