Sunil Menon <menon_sunilguruvayur Sent: Wednesday, 23 August, 2006 3:38:29 AM[Guruvayur/Guruvayoor] Navaneetham picture contest - We have a WINNER !!

 

 

 

Dear Group,

 

We have a winner! And our winner is none other than our K.V Gopalakrishnaji!

 

Congratulations, Gopalakrishnaji!. May God Bless You Always.

 

I received a total of 8 emails and all have correctly pointed one or other small errors. So, Congratulations to all of you!

 

Gopalakrishnaji' s was the FIRST email I received (7 AM IST; 7.30 PM US/PST ) and he was correct without a doubt!

 

Other emails are from

 

PS Vinod - 10.07 pm US/PST , Arun P Pillai - 10.24 pmJayashree - 11 pmKeethi Kumar Menon - 11.32 pmRajan Nair Kinattinkara - 12.33 AMIndu - 2.37 AMSatya Sreenivasa Rao Ramisetty - 8.12 AM

 

You can see a compilation of the findings at the end of this mail.

Orginal email from Sabarish that made me think about this contest :

 

" Guruvayoorappan' s picture on the last page of Navaneetham (July and August issues) has a mistake. The order of charkam, shankh, gadha, padmam in the picture is wrong. "

 

I was really surprised to learn that because the source of the picture was Guruvayur Deavswom web site-

http://www.guruvayu rdevaswom. org/img/wallpape r/16.jpg

Seems like someone flipped the picture by mistake before posting to the Devaswom web site. And we carried that mistake in Navaneetham.

 

My sincere apologies.

 

Here is your email answers -

Gopalakrishnaji:

In fact, there are three glaring mistakes if one has to point out==1. On page-2- Krishna is shown as the 9th Avatara in the array of Avataras. Actually it is the 8th.

2.On page 4, Vamana is shown as keeping his left foot on the head of Mahabali (in the picture, only the kireedam is shown, not the head, that is a different story). But it is actually the right foot.

3. On the last page, the picture of guruvayoorappan looks turned the other way, left should be right and right should be left. Further, what the present left hand carries, (it should be the chakram in the wrong picture) it doesnt look like a chakram.

PS Vinod:My observation says it's on Page 4/39 - Only 9 incarnations instead of 10.

 

Arun P PillaiI found it .... how come we didnt notice this .... I thing the picture was inverted ... page 39, Bhagawan's photo ...left came as right ...

 

Jayashreei think the mistake that you are referring to is in the dashavataram picture put on the contents page. picture of kalki avatar is missing.

Keethi Kumar MenonI found the mistake with the photograph printed on 2nd page. Vamana moorthi is shown as 35 - 40 years old man. Its really have to be shown as a "Vamana boy".

 

Rajan Nair Kinattinkara

It seems there is something wrong with the picture on Page No. 35, i.e. Lord Vishnu bless Vasudevar and Devaki.

 

InduIn the picture of Dashavatharam ... Kalki is not shown...

Satya Sreenivasa Rao RamisettyI have gone through the pictures and feel that there is issue with this painting on page 15. The right hand fingers of Lord Krishna doesn't show the correct play method. It is the finger tips which should be closing the flute holes rather than the end of the finger. That is my first observation.

Thanks to Sabarish for initiating this and thanks to all of you for your observations and suggestions.

 

May God Bless You.

Sunil.

Dear Editor and all readers and devotees of the Lord,

Thank you so much for thrusting the "winner" title on me. Really

speaking, the winner is Sabarish as he has only pointed out that there

is a mistake. All others including myself were just taking things for

granted!

 

Kudoes for Sabarish's observation!

 

May the flawless God, Lord Guruvayoorappan shower His benign grace on

all the members of the group and their families, (why limit it to the

group), on all His great creations.

 

Regards

KVG.

I found it .... how come we didnt notice this .... I thing the picture was

inverted ... page 39, Bhagawan's

Jayashree

i think the mistake that you are referring to is

in the dashavataram picture

put on the contents page. picture of kalki avatar is missing.

 

Keethi

Kumar Menon

I found the mistake with the photograph printed

on 2nd page. Vamana moorthi is shown as 35 - 40 years old man. Its

really have to be shown as a "Vamana

boy".

 

Rajan Nair Kinattinkara

It seems there is something wrong with the picture on Page No.

35, i.e. Lord Vishnu bless Vasudevar

and Devaki.

 

Indu

In the picture of Dashavatharam ... Kalki is not shown...

 

Satya

Sreenivasa Rao Ramisetty

I have gone through the pictures and feel that

there is issue with this painting on page 15. The right hand fingers of

Lord Krishna doesn't show the correct play method. It is the finger

tips which should be closing the flute holes rather than the end of the

finger. That is my first observation.

 

Thanks to Sabarish

for initiating this and thanks to all of you for your observations and

suggestions.

 

May God Bless You.

Congrats Gopalakrishnan ji ….. Great job !

Sunil ji - What is the prize for our dear winner ?? This initiation of yours is highly appreciated. It is a good learning for the editorial board to do a further better screening now & bring down the mistakes. Thank you all who participated in this contest. This also calls for the necessity to have more member additions into our board. In the upcoming issues, we need dedicated members to own certain tasks for enhancing the quality & purport of our magazine.

Not the least but, today is my birth date also. But actual B'day falls on the " Moolam " of Onam (Sept 3 - Sunday). Hence, I planned to offer an on-line " Payasa Nivedyam " to my beloved Guruvayurappan today & share with all.

 

 

Need all your prayers & blessings ...

Hare Krishna

Dear Vinod,

Happy Birthday and many many happy returns of the day!!

Thanks for letting us know and all our prayers are there for you on this special day.

Vinod is a special member of our group. One of the few who has been consistently active since he joined the group in 2004. He may also have the highest number of postings to our group.

Regarding Navaneetham - yes, it was a good learning process and an opportunity to do a better job in future issues. Being a novice in such matters, I pray for Guruvayoorappan's blessing and guidance to do a better job in future issues.

Vinod, good suggestion regarding more dedicated members to join Navaneetham editorial. I welcome members to our editorial board who can help us converting articles to Malayalam fonts, proof reading, editing articles and page/cover design. Please email me if you can spare at least 5/6 hours in a month for the same.

We also need good articles from all of you in every month. Send to us as soon as you can, that way, we will have more time to design and edit it. More time = less mistakes as we get time to proof read a few times.

Please send news items about other temples, your questions regarding spirituality and any other news you like to share with our group.

Again, happy birthday Vinod and May God Bless you.

Om Namo Narayanaya:

Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu.

Sunil.

Dear Editor and all readers and devotees of the Lord,Thank you so much for thrusting the " winner " title on me. Really speaking, the winner is Sabarish as he has only pointed out that there is a mistake. All others including myself were just taking things for granted! Kudoes for Sabarish's observation!May the flawless God, Lord Guruvayoorappan shower His benign grace on all the members of the group and their families, (why limit it to the group), on all His great creations.

RegardsKVG.

>guruvayur Sent: Wednesday, 23 August, 2006 3:38:29 AM[Guruvayur/Guruvayoor] Navaneetham picture contest - We have a WINNER !!

 

 

 

 

Dear Group,

 

We have a winner! And our winner is none other than our K.V Gopalakrishnaji!

 

Congratulations, Gopalakrishnaji!. May God Bless You Always.

 

I received a total of 8 emails and all have correctly pointed one or other small errors. So, Congratulations to all of you!

 

Gopalakrishnaji' s was the FIRST email I received (7 AM IST; 7.30 PM US/PST ) and he was correct without a doubt!

 

Other emails are from

 

PS Vinod - 10.07 pm US/PST , Arun P Pillai - 10.24 pmJayashree - 11 pm

Keethi Kumar Menon - 11.32 pmRajan Nair Kinattinkara - 12.33 AMIndu - 2.37 AMSatya Sreenivasa Rao Ramisetty

- 8.12 AM

 

You can see a compilation of the findings at the end of this mail.

Orginal email from Sabarish that made me think about this contest :

 

" Guruvayoorappan' s picture on the last page of Navaneetham (July and August issues) has a mistake. The order of charkam, shankh,

gadha, padmam in the picture is wrong. "

 

I was really surprised to learn that because the source of the picture was Guruvayur Deavswom web site-

http://www.guruvayu rdevaswom. org/img/wallpape r/16.jpg

 

Seems like someone flipped the picture by mistake before posting to the Devaswom web site. And we carried that mistake in Navaneetham.

 

My sincere apologies.

 

Here is your email answers -

Gopalakrishnaji:

In fact, there are three glaring mistakes if one has to point out==1. On page-2- Krishna is shown as the 9th Avatara in the array of Avataras. Actually it is the 8th

..

2.On page 4, Vamana is shown as keeping his left foot on the head of Mahabali (in the picture, only the kireedam is shown, not the head, that is a different story). But it is actually the right foot.

 

3. On the last page, the picture of guruvayoorappan looks turned the other way, left should be right and right should be left. Further, what the present left hand carries, (it should be the chakram

in the wrong picture) it doesnt look like a chakram.

PS Vinod:My observation says it's on Page 4/39 - Only 9 incarnations instead of 10.

 

Arun P PillaiI found it .... how come we didnt notice this .... I thing the picture was inverted ... page 39, Bhagawan's

photo ...left came as right ...

 

Jayashreei think the mistake that you are referring to is in the dashavataram picture put on the contents page. picture of kalki

avatar is missing.

Keethi Kumar MenonI found the mistake with the photograph printed on 2nd page. Vamana moorthi

is shown as 35 - 40 years old man. Its really have to be shown as a " Vamana boy " .

 

Rajan Nair Kinattinkara

It seems there is something wrong with the picture on Page No. 35, i.e. Lord Vishnu bless Vasudevar and Devaki.

 

InduIn the picture of Dashavatharam ... Kalki is not shown...

Satya Sreenivasa Rao RamisettyI have gone through the pictures and feel that there is issue with this painting on page 15. The right hand fingers of Lord Krishna doesn't show the correct play method. It is the finger tips which should be closing the flute holes rather than the end of the finger. That is my first observation.

 

Thanks to Sabarish for initiating this and thanks to all of you for your observations and suggestions.

 

May God Bless You.

Sunil.

Dear Vinodji and all others!

 

Radhe Krishna!

 

Let me first wish you many many happy returns of the day, with ardent

prayers to Lord Guruvayoorappan to shower His divine grace on you and

the family of Guruvayoorappan Bhaktas, and bestow on all, an abundance

of Ayur-arogya-soukhyam.

 

Sincere thanks for your congratulations. I continue to feel that Sri.

Sabarish is the real winner, and not me, as he was the one who pointed

out the mistake. We all, including myself (I am ashamed to say), took

things for granted. I very highly appreciate the devotion and keen

observation of Sri Sabarish in observing the mistake, which has escaped

everybody else's attention, and his courage to point it out.

 

On behalf of the Bhaktaranjini Trust, in all humility, I like to offer

the prize of one complimentary copy of the Narayaneeyam Bhaktaranjini

commentary to Shri. Sabarish. But, as he has paid for and taken a

copy from me already yesterday, either I can reimburse the cost to him,

or I can request him to collect from me, another copy for his friend

and a very ardent devotee of Guruvayoorappan, Shri. Dinuraj, who showed

immense fondness for the book when he saw it, and has already started

reading it. .

 

Sabarishji, My hearty congratulations to you. Kindly request Shri.

Dinuraj to act as per your desire, as given in the para above.. My

hearty congrats to Dinurajji for the revival of his trip to the US, as

desired by the Lord..

 

Warmest regards

K.V. Gopalakrishna.

& bring down the mistakes. Thank you all who participated in this contest.

This also calls for the necessity to have more member additions into

Not the least but,

today is my birth date also. But actual B'day falls on the "Moolam" of

Dear Shri Vinod, Let me first wish you a happy birthday. I could not see the picture from this mail but was able to see it throu KVG's message with the Neivedyam on this day. I really am glad to take the neivedyam miles, nay, seas across from yours. That reminds me the lines by Shri Poonthanam's jnanappana. He cries to Lord that he yearned to be atleast a pullu in Kaliyugam but he did not have that bagyam. We in this modern world are blessed to chat and open our hearts through this media instantly. I am really glad that I am atleast a thari in this forum and enjoying all the good works that is spread through Sunil Menon -our moderator. Once again I pray Lord Guruvayoorappan to bless you a happy birthday and many more wonderful birthdays in the future. Ohm Narayanaya Namah Chandra Sekharan Menon "PS, Vinod K (GE Infra, Energy)"

Dear Shri Gopalakrishna Sir and all,

 

My sincere thanks your congratulations and appreciations. It was Guruvayoorappan's wish that the mistake in the picture be corrected, and he pointed it out to me.

 

To be born in the Great Land " Bharatam " , which was made divine by the presence of Lord Mahavishnu himself, which is the land of great yogis like Shri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Shri Vivekanda Swamigal and many more, where you find temples in every village and city, which is protected by nature (ocean on 3 sides, and Himalaya Parvatam on the fourth), which successfully preserved the age old traditions even after mutiple attacks (on its land and cutlure) and one which has the temple of Guruvayoor - Arent we all lucky, Arent we all winners?

 

Gopalakrishna Sir, I have talked to dinu, and he is delighted to get a copy of Narayaneeyam Bhaktarangini.

 

Regards,

Sabarish.
