Namaste friends,

 

Today is Akshaya Triteeya - the 3rd tithi (lunar day) in the sukla paksha

(waxing fortnight) of the lunar month of Vaisakha. This is supposed to be the

day when Ganga came to earth. This is the day when Parasurama was born. This is

the day when Treta yuga started. Today is supposed to be a very auspicious day.

 

Any prayer or meditation or homam or spiritual practice performed today is

supposed to be many times more powerful than on any normal day. Akshaya

literally means " imperishable " , i.e. in large supply. The fruits of spiritual

karmas of today will be very large and that is why the name " akshaya " .

 

In fact, the next 12 days are very auspicious for spiritual practices. It is

believed that some divine energy hovers above earth during this time and prayers

can yield results faster. The 5th tithi (panchami), which starts tomorrow

afternoon and goes into Thursday, is known as Rishi Panchami and is a good day.

 

I am sharing the information so anybody interested may take advantage of Akshaya

Triteeya

 

Best regards,

Narasimha
