Guest guest Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Om Namo Narayanaya! I will narrate an incident related to Guruvayur that had a great impact on me. When I was doing my Ph.D, I was very career oriented and not too interested in marriage. But that was not the plan of Shri Guruvayurappan. I sincerely prayed to Guruvayurappan that if You really want me to get married, it should be held in Guruvayur and no where else. Elders in the family, being of the opinion that marriages should be conducted by the family priest by proper chanting of Vedic mantras, there was no way I could let them know what I wanted. I prayed again to the Lord. Lord Guruvayurappan came to my rescue in form of my Mother-in-law. Her one and only condition for the marriage [even before I had even spoken to her] was that the marriage be conducted in Guruvayur. When we conveyed this to our family priest, he was very eager to come with us to Guruvayur to conduct the marriage. There were several more hurdles in the way, which Guruvayurappan took care of. My in-laws were traveling from Bangalore by bus and were stranded in their way due to heavy rains. Due to God's grace they all reached in the middle of the night, a couple of the hours before the ceremony was scheduled to commence. Finally the marriage was conducted in Guruvayur as per Vedic rites and the Muhurtam was in front of the Nada on June 27, exactly four years ago, to date. Incidents such as these go a long way in strengthening our devotion to the Lord. Hari Narayana!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
