[Guruvayur/Guruvayoor] koti archana counting-CUMULATIVE?????????

Rate this topic

Recommended Posts

Dear Shashi,

 

I agree that the essence of the koti naama archana is devotion. But

sometimes having a tentative time frame helps all of us to concentrate

and do a better job. Just like having a temple helps us to concentrate

more about Krishna even though Krishna is everywhere.

 

Regarding the the number of naama japam per individual - cumulative

number - let us leave it to the individual members as some of us may

have more time and computer access, ease in typing than than some

others. Let us stick with 108 if possible, as it is a very auspicious

number for achieving goals.

 

These are just my humble opinion. What really matter is our pure

devotion and completion of our Japam in a few months time. Let all of

work towards that goal and let us HOPE to see changes in Guruvayur in

a positive direction and let Krishna smiles in our lives with positive

energy.

 

Please let us know if you have more suggestions.

 

Loka Samastha Sukhni Bhavanthu.

 

Om Namo Narayanaya:

 

Sunil.

Hare Krishna Guruvayurappa!Dear Devotees, Since we are doing a Koti archana by Likhita japa (chanting by writing), the following article written by the Great Swami Sivananda would be of relevance. Please go through it.http://www.dlshq.org/teachings/japayoga.htm(especially read the paragraph titled "Varieties of Japa") Some people do not seem to agree that japa can be done by writing, but Swami Sivananda has described the wonderful benefits of this process.-sriram======Sunil Menon <menon_sunil wrote: Dear Shashi, I agree that the essence of the koti naama archana is devotion.

HARI AUM

 

Dear Shree Shashiji,

 

True. The devotion is paramount. Without a plan it

will be like playing football without goalposts.

Moreover pitching to certain figures adds to

responsibility.

 

To avoid confusion write the cumulative figure in

brackets. This will help the individual to track his

numbers.

 

Regards

 

Balagopal

Om Namo Narayanaaya!!!

 

Dear Devotees:

I feel that the purpose of Koti Archana should not be

making the number, but each one should chant the

Krishna Mantra while typing each " JAPAM " . (a copy

paste method will defeat the purpose). I know that

here in this group all are true devotees of Lord

Krishna and all are doing it in true bhakthi.

 

May God Bless All ......

 

 

Krishna Guruvayoorappaa...
