Guest guest Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 Dear All, This is a continuation of yeterday's prayer-exploring of the meaning of Vishnu. " While taking the medicine think of Vishnu " . How can we interpret this using the meaning of the name Vishnu? The word Vishnu means one who pervades and has entered into everything. Thus His is the power by which all things, both moving and stationary, exist. This is because he is in everything, in each and every cell in us as His chaitanyam and He sustains us. So praying Vishnu at the time of taking medicine is very appropriate. We are praying Vishnu who has pervaded and entered in to every single cell of our body to make the medicine effective in healing any ailments. Just by calling the name Vishnu or Om Vishnave namah will definitely multiply the effect of the medicine because we invoked the vaishnava chaitanyam in each cell and the body becomes very receptive to the medicine and drives away all the negative energy and toxicity. Also at this context we will look in to a little more deeper into the meaning. He is also the highest truth and most supreme state of existence : Tad Vishno: Paramam Padam. He is protector and sustainer of the Universe, he is megha varnam (color of dark clouds). Anantha shaayi Vishnu lies on the spiritual power called Anantha, a serpent who floats in the Kaarana jala or causal waters from which springs all life. Let us all pray Vishnu, who is the all-pervading essence of all beings, who is the master of past, present and future, who is beyond past, present and future, and who is capable of " doing,not doing or doing differently " (karthum, akarthum, anyadha karthum) Regards and prayers Savitri ..

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Dear Savithriji and all other friends, Radhe Krishna! The name of "Vishnu" has innumerable meanings. That can be a separate chapter by itself. But while taking medicines, the best is to meditate upon Him in the form of "Dhanvantharee Murthy" who rose up from the milky ocean with Amrutha-kalasam in His hands while churning the same. One should also chant this Manthra, "VAIDYA-RAJAAYA VIDMAHE KALASA-HASTAYA DHEEMAHI--- THANNO DHANWANTHARIH PRACHODAYAAT" Regsrds KVG.

Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Dear Gopalkrishnaji, To be honest with you, I was thinking why the manthra advises, " oushdhe chinthayodwishnum " instead of " oushdhe chintayo: Dhanwantharim " .. But I was tring to relate the meaning of Vishnu and how appropriate is to think that name when you are taking medicine. I perfectly agree with you that we all pray Vishnu in the form of Dhanwanthari also to protect us from diseases. It is really interesting to note that Melpatthur almost never addressed Him as Dhanwanthari. Even in the 28th chapter, he said: Hae! Marudaalayesha with the amritha kalasham in hand, please remove all my " aarthi " . Chanting of Sarvarogashamana manthram from Rigvedam is advised for either Dhanwantharamurthy or Aadithya bhagavan. There is something interesting to share with you. I had an old lady in our house who used to help my mother to take care of children. She was a Puduvarassiar and was an extremely pious and intelligent woman. Even though she did not know how to read and write she knew every single story of Ramayanam, Bhagavatham and Bharatham and used to enrich us with her beautiful narration with Bhakthi and bhaavam. Once she told us that you pray Dhanwanthara murthy to avoid getting sick and when you get sick, you pray Vishnu to get cured. I am not sure why she said that and we were too young to think deeper about it and ask any further questions. I cannot get any explanation for that and she is gone. When I wrote about it, I was thinking about all these things. May be Bhagavan does not even need the help of Amrith to cure us when we get sick. He gave life to all the Gopas and cows when they drank the water from Kaalindi just by his blessed glance. Thank you for making me think more about it.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Dear all, Radhe Krishna! As a person whi has had an indepth study of Narayaneeyam, I would like to point the 10th sloka of Dasakam 28, which says, "Tharunambuda-sundarasthada thwam, nanu dhanwantharirutthitho amburaseh Amrutham kalase vahan karabhyam, akhilarthim hara Maruthesa! Commentary “O Lord of Guruvayoor! You, who emerged next from the ocean, incarnating as Dhanvantari-murthy, beautiful in complexion like fresh rain clouds, carrying the Ambrosia jar in Your divine lotus hands – may You be pleased to remove all my afflictions! You are Dhanvantari, Lord of Ayurveda, capable of curing all ailments. Therefore, approaching anyone else for healing my disease would be foolhardy.” It is purported that none other than Dhanvantari could destroy the author’s mental afflictions like desire, anger etc., and the physical disease of rheumatism. Although every dasakam ends with a prayer to the Lord requesting Him to destroy all afflictions, this prayer is particularly significant, as it is directly addressed to the Lord of Guruvayoor whom the author is imagining as arising from the ocean with nectar in hand in the form of Dhanvantari, the deity for Ayurveda, whose glory is unsurpassable in the cure of diseases. Note. We should remember that the whole book of Narayaneeyam is personally addressed to Lord Guruvayoorappan, and any reference to any other form of Lord Vishnu is considered as a form of Guruvayoorappan. Bhattatiri says that it was only "YOU", my Lord of Guruvayoor, who came out of the ocean carrying the Amrutha Kalasam in hand, O Maruthalayesa, protect me! Therefore there is no doubt that Dhanvanthari-murthy and Guruvayoorappan are just one and the same and Bhattatiri has also recognised that fact.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 Dear Gopalakrishnaji, Thanks for the explanation and interpretaion. I perfectly agree with you. All avatharams are one and the same and after the palaazhi mathanam He comes as Dhanwathra murthy. Since the slokam used " Oushadhe Chinthayodwishnum " I was trying to relate the meaning of the name Vishnu to taking medicine. Please feel free to correct because I am at a much lower level.

Although every dasakam ends with a prayer to the Lord requesting Him to destroy all afflictions, this prayer is particularly significant, as it is directly addressed to the Lord of Guruvayoor whom the author is imagining as arising from the ocean with nectar in hand in the form of Dhanvantari, the deity for Ayurveda, whose glory is unsurpassable in the cure of diseases. Note. We should remember that the whole book of Narayaneeyam is personally addressed to Lord Guruvayoorappan, and any reference to any other form of Lord Vishnu is considered as a form of Guruvayoorappan. Bhattatiri says that it was only " YOU " , my Lord of Guruvayoor, who came out of the ocean carrying the Amrutha Kalasam in hand, O Maruthalayesa, protect me! Therefore there is no doubt that Dhanvanthari-murthy and Guruvayoorappan are just one and the same and Bhattatiri has also recognised that fact.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Just read this story - thought it will answer some of our queries. SITA AND THE KETAKI FLOWER Romaharshana told the assembled sages, It is easy to please Shiva. But Shiva must never be worshipped with a ketaki or a champaka flower. Why, what is wrong with these flowers? asked the sages. Let me tell you about the ketaki flower first, replied Romaharshana. Rama's father Dasharatha asked Rama to spend fourteen years in the forest. So Rama went to the forest with his brother Lakshmana and his wife Sita. The three of them started to live on the banks of the river Falgu. News reached the forest that Dasharatha had died in their absence and a shraddha (funeral) ceremony had to performed for the dead king. Rama sent Lakshmana to a nearby village to get the necessary ingredients. Time passed and Lakshmana did not return. Rama then went to get the ingredients and look for Lakshmana. But Rama too did not return. It was almost noon and the ceremony had to be performed before noon. In desperation, Sita decided to perform the ceremony herself. She went and bathed in the Falgu river and lit an earthen lamp. She then made the offerings (pinda) to the dead ancestors herself. Immediately, a voice was heard. Sita, you are blessed, it said. We are satisfied. In utter amazement Sita watched some disembodied hands appear in the air to accept the offerings. Who are you? Asked Sita. I am your dead father-in-law, answered the voice. The funeral ceremony has been successful. I have accepted your offerings. But Rama and Lakshmana are going to believe me, said Sita. They will never believe that such disembodied hands appeared out of thin air to accept the offerings. They have to. answered the voice. You have four witnesses. The first is the Falgu river. The second is the cow over there. The third will be the fire. And the last one will be the ketaki bush. Rama and Lakshmana returned and said, Cook the food quickly. There is very little time left. We have to complete the funeral ceremony before noon. Sita told them what happened, and naturally, the two brothers did not believe her. They made fun of her and suggested that she was lying. Sita called upon her four witnesses, but each denied that it had seen anything. Without arguing any further, Sita cooked the food and Rama made offerings to his ancestors. A voice was then heard from the sky. Why are you calling us again? it said. Sita has already satisfied us. I refuse to believe that, said Rama. Indeed, it is true, retorted the voice. Ask the sun god. The sun god confirmed that everything had happened just as Sita had said it had. Rama and Lakshmana were ashamed that they had doubted Sita and were also impressed with the power of her virtue. But Sita cursed the four false witnesses. She cursed the Falgu river that it would henceforth only flow underground. She cursed the ketaki flower (pandanus odoratissimus) that it would never be accepted by Shiva as an offering. She cursed the cow that its mouth would henceforth become impure. It had, after all, lied with its mouth. The hind sections of the cow would however continue to be pure. And finally Sita cursed the fire that it would consume everything indiscriminately. That is the reason why a ketaki flower must never be used to worship Shiva. Narada and the Champaka Tree Nor must a champaka flower be used. In the land of Gokarna there was a temple dedicated to Shiva. Narada decided that he would go and visit the temple. On the way, he saw a flowering champaka tree and stopped to admire it. A brahmana came there to pluck flowers from the tree. But seeing that Narada was there, the brahmana refrained from plucking any flowers. Where are you going? asked Narada. The brahmana lied and replied, To beg some alms. Narada went to the temple. Meanwhile, the brahmana plucked flowers from the champaka tree and placed them in a basket that he covered up well. Narada met the brahmana again on his way back from the temple. Where are you going now? He asked the brahmana. The brahmana lied again, Home, he said, I could n't get any alms. Narada's suspicions were aroused. He went to the champaka tree and asked, Has that brahmana plucked any flowers? What brahmana? replied the tree. I don't know of any brahmana. No one has plucked any flowers. Narada went back to the temple and discovered fresh champaka flowers lying there on top of the Shiva linga. There was another devotee praying there. Narada asked him, Do you know who came to worship with these champaka flowers? Yes, I do, replied the devotee, It is an evil brahmana. He worships Shiva every day with champaka flowers. Thanks to Shiva's blessings, he has completely brainwashed the king and has secretly been stealing the king's wealth. He also oppresses other brahmanas. Narada asked Shiva, Why do you encourage such evil? I am helpless, replied Shiva. I cannot resist it if someone worships me with champaka flowers. Just then, a brahmana woman came running with her tale of woe. Her husband was crippled. But they had managed to get some money from the king so that their daughter could be married. They had also received a cow from the king. But the evil brahmana was claiming that half of whatever they had received was his. It was due to his good offices that the king had been so generous, he was saying. The evil brahmana had already appropriated half of the money. But how was a cow to be divided? Narada then decided that something needed to be done about the champaka tree and the evil brahmana. Apart from everything else, the champaka tree was a liar. Narada cursed the champaka tree that its flowers would never be accepted by Shiva as an offering. He cursed the evil brahmana that he would be born as a rakshasa (demon) named Viradha. But the brahmana had been a devotee of Shiva. So the curse was qualified by the stipulation that Viradha would be killed by Rama and would then again become a brahmana.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2008 Report Share Posted May 5, 2008 Dear Miniji and others who requested for the sarvarogasmana manthram, I have typed it in Malayalam, This is from Rigvedam and the vedic sanskrit sounds different. So please take all care to pronounce it exactly as you see it. I was advised to read it very slowly in the beginning until you have mastered the pronunciation. ( I do not know whether you can listen to this online also). I do not know how to type in Sanskrit. So I have typed in Malyalam and I have taken extra care to check it over and overt again to avoid any mistakes. Panchangam press, kunnamkulam has published a small book called Rigveda manthrangal with all important manthras like this one, saaraswatham, bhagyasooktham, eikamathya sooktham or samvaada sooktham etc. It is available in many bookstores in Guruvayur. I hope you will not have problem to open and read this. I have imported to pdf file. Please see the attached file. Sorry that I took a some time to send this. I was checking it several times for mistakes. When i get a chance, I will type the aparaadha kshamapana sthothram for any mistakes in the letters, bindus and visargaas. There are three nice slokaas which I chant after finishing my prayers. I do sincerely think that our sincerity is that matters. His kindness is like an ocean and he became " maraprabhu " for Poothaanam from " amaraprabhu " and tolerated " mara " chanting of Ratnakaran (Valmiki) instead of " rama " and made him the president of all Rishis! But when Kumbhakarna said " nidraathwam " by mistake for " nirdaevathwam " Gods gave him what he asked for - sleeping continuously. This is because his ulterior motives were bad. So when we are sincere, He will forgive our mistakes.(as long as we are trying our best). Krishna! please forgive us for all our mistakes.
