Guest guest Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Namaste, I understand the following from an earlier Grantham: AMAVASYA VIRATA is performed to please pitur.Sanivaar Amvasya gets more importance in the sense to satisfy Pitur runaa.On Sani Amavasya day early in the morning “Asvadh” (Bodhi tree) pradhashanam is recommended .The trunk of the ‘Bodhi’tree to be symbolically construed as deities “Lakshmi Narayana”, poojas are performed end with pradhashana namaskaaraas.These were done to appease pitru for sound health, putra soukya and for good boogha-bhagya. I think it would be proper to hear from Pandit Arjuneji, Pandit Dakshinamourthyji. mamta_c25 <mamta_chhabra wrote: Respected Astrologers, It is Amavasya on Saturday. I understand it is Shani Amavasya. Please advise on how we can pay our homage to God on this day.

Guest guest Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Dear Members: What Shri. Karunaakaram Raaghavam has written is pertinent. Amavasya vrattam is done to propitiate Pitrus. The importance of Aswatta Pradakshina on Saturday has also been clearly explained by him as per ancient Granthas. One more thing I would like to mention in this regard; One can touch and perform pooja to Aswatta tree ONLY on Sani Amavasya days. On other days, we should not touch the tree. We can do Pradakshina but we should not touch the tree. Only on Sani Amavasya we can touch it and do the pooja. This definitely bestows of the Thrimurthis to a performer of such a pooja. This is the only authentic thing about this sani amavasya. Let us not build up false beliefs associating this with Sani preeti, remedy for Saturn dosha, remedy for Amaavasya dosha, etc. The Sani Amavasya Vrattam is good for everyone regardless of the natal horoscope and we should take it as such. This is based on Dharma Shastraic injunctions - a Naimittika vrattam done to improve general prosperity and for betterment of the family in general. Shri Karunaakaram Raghavam has given a good guidance for all members regarding this. Blessed be.

This is the only authentic thing about this sani amavasya. Let us not build up false beliefs associating this with Sani preeti, remedy for Saturn dosha, remedy for Amaavasya dosha, etc. The Sani Amavasya Vrattam is good for everyone regardless of the natal horoscope and we should take it as such. This is based on Dharma Shastraic injunctions - a Naimittika vrattam done to improve general prosperity and for betterment of the family in general. Shri Karunaakaram Raghavam has given a good guidance for all members regarding this. Blessed be.
