Guest guest Posted October 5, 2008 Report Share Posted October 5, 2008 Adarniya Narasimha Guruji Namaste, I had arranged for the first time Chandi Homam at my house on Friday. The Brahmin priest did a excellent pooja. During Durga swaroopini Kanya(small girl 7 years old) poojan I asked her to take her feet out so that I could touch the her feet with my forehead to offer my obeisance & I normally do touch the feet with my fore head during the Namaskar. The Brahmin Pujari prevented me from touching the feet of girl as well as his feet with my forehead saying that if a person touches the feet of a guru/elder with forehead all the punya of the Guru/Elder will transfer to me & incase the Guru keeps his hand on my head all his sins will be transfered to me. Please shed light on this Regards Vinayak P Tandle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any person on creature puts his feet on the head of another person or creature, he takes away one-sixth of the sins. This principle is followed in Diksha where the Guru places his feet on the head of the Sisya and takes away one-sixth of the sins of the latter.
