Guest guest Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Thank you Syamalaji for this auspicious story on this auspicious day.--- On Wed, 12/17/08, Syamala Nair <syamalaraghunath wrote:Syamala Nair <syamalaraghunath[Guruvayur] (unknown)"Guruvayur group Krishna" <guruvayur >Wednesday, December 17, 2008, 1:42 PM Jai Sreekrishna Dear all Today is Kuchela Dinam, the day on which Bhakta Kuchelan went to Dwaraka to meet Lord Krishna at the request of his wife. He carried with him a some avil wrapped in a cloth as kazchcha dravyam for Lord Krishna. After reaching Dwaraka, bhakta kuchelan was hesitant to give the avil kizhi to Lord Krishna, but Lord wanted to have that avil brought by HIS bhakta with full of shradhdha and bhakti and after eating a mouthful, HE said "I never had such tasty avil". See HIS kaarunyam towards HIS bhaktas Kuchelan left the next day morning for his home, but did not ask anything from Lord Krishna . He just forgot everything and even the fact that his wife had requested him to ask Krishna for some help. But Lord has HIS own leela to bless HIS Bhakta and by the time Bhakta Kuchelan reached home he could not believe his eyes. Lord has given him everything even without asking. See HIS bhakta valsalyam. It is said Kuchelan went to Dwaraka on the first Wednesday of Dhanu masam and that day is considered as Kuchela Dinam. Reciting Kuchela Vriththam and offering avil nivedyaam to KANNAN on this day is very good Praying to KANNAN for HIS Blessings for all members of this great gorup Syamala Connect with friends all over the world.
