Respected Sir:

 

With due respects to you all that can be done in certain 'baffling'

situations is total surrender to the divine FEET of our beloved Lord. The

mind cannot be used for this as we cannot depend on the mind/brain since

its nature is to present the problem in a baffling manner and cause deep

confusion.

 

Continuous prayer in deep silence and Namaa-Japa may help to some extent.

In any case, one assumes and hopes that you are already performing the

Trikala Sandhya without fail. Needless to say, irrespective of the

intensity of the stressful situation, the Sandhya has to be done. This is

the single most important, the paramount requirement, the basic minimum and

has a direct impact on all our Karmic residue.

 

Apart from the Sandhya, regular listening of the Vishnu Sahasranama will

MOST CERTAINLY ward off the stressful situation. Please do not merely

'listen' with the ears. You must draw the chanting as if you draw fruit

juice from a straw. With you entire being you need to sink your insides

from the pit of your stomatch into the chantings.

 

All stressful situations invariably begin and travel in a groove inside the

deeper recess of the brain in the form of thought waves. And since short

of physical surgery you cannot touch or see the brain, the only way the

thoughts can be managed is to 'hear' the chantings. The chantings have

extraordinary power. Marvel at the complicated tongue twisting expressions

and grammer in Chaste Sanskrit. Get awed at the glory of the exquisite

composition, the verses, the rhythm, the rhyming tone, the ring of purity

all soaked up in supremely intoxicating devoution

 

This will make you scorn at the stressful situation rendering it totally

frivilous, wasting and unworthy of our precious attention. Do not resist

or try to get into distracting thougths to overcome the stressful thoughts.

The chantings will take care.

But sir, when you take 1 step he will carry you through others. Help him help you by

concentrating on academics.

Srimathe Lakshmi Hayagreeva Parabhramane Namaha:

Dear Sandeep,

 

I understand your position, please chant Sri

Hayagreeva Storam composed by Swami Vedanta Desikan.

Lord Hayagreeva will surely help you from your stress.

Every day chant the first para of the storam " GNANA

NADHAMAYAM DEVAM NIRMALA........... " everyday for

relief. If you are near a temple please visit the

temple atleast once a week.

If you are in (MADRAS) Chennai, please visit Sri

Lakshmi Hayagreevar Temple at Nagainallur, another

place is Satyanarayana Temple at West Mambalam. And

the first Lakshmi Hayagreeva temple in Madras in Seva

Swami's Manimandapam at Villivakkam.

Also Please do chant Vishnu Sashranamam when ever time

permits (Once a week is good). Take care, bye.

Good Luck.

Dear Sandeep:

 

The very fact that you are able to reconcile to your situation as

Perumal's prasadam on account of your Prarabdha karma is because of the

fact that his grace if with you. People, in their foolishness, tend to

blame the Lord for what is happening to them in their lives. If you can

accept your current situation in your life as a result of your

Prarabdha and do not get upset about it and still catch hold of HIS

feet and surrender to HIM, he will give you the strength to wither all

the storms in your life. I will quote an anecdote which is often

quoted:

 

A Bhaktha and Krishna were walking in the seashore and the Bhaktha was

seeing two pairs of steps always on the sand. But at one stage of his

life he was undergoing lot of trouble and he found only one pair of

footsteps on the sand. At this he complained to the Lord and asked him

why had he deserted him when he was in trouble?

 

The LORD replied - Where did I desert you? The footsteps that you saw

were actually mine as I was carrying you at the time of your trouble in

my hands.

 

That is the Karunuyam of Lord that if we take one step towards HIM and

he will take multiple steps towards us. Many learned people have

replied to your query with various suggestions and there is no need for

me to replicate those.

 

I would though like to stress on suggestion for reciting Gnanandha

Mayam Devam from Hayagriva Sthothram composed by Swami Desikan.

Personally, I have been on the receiving end of HIS grace on account of

regular chanting of this Stothram.

 

Wish you all the best.

Dear JK & Sandeep,Very interesting indeed. The solution is very

apt but a suggestion here - such Mantras should be chanted only

receiving an Upadesam for the Acharya. Depending on Sandeep's lineage - Sri

Parakala Matam (HH is in Mysore) or Srimad Andavan Asramam (HH is in Chennai

Asramam) or Sri Ahobila Mutt (HH is in Mumbai Chembur Matam) - he can

approach His Acharya and get the Mantropadesam.Warmest
