Dear swamin,

In the manthras for pratyadi devata vishnu some typographical error it

seems

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pratyati

dEvatai for Budhan is :

VishNO

rarADamasi VishNO: prushtamasi VishNO: jn~aptrEsthO syUrasi

ishNOrdhruvamasi VaishNavamasi VishNavE tvaa

VishNO: syUrasi=

This i sonly clerical missing. One more doubt  Whether swa sakha is

different like jaiminiya sama veda 

paushkara atharvana vedha then they also should follow only these krsna

yajur veda manthras only?.  Each graha has separate varna, anga,

malyambaradaram, dhavaja patam, direction,  while doing avahanam,

separate dhanya, vasthra etc., which is not clear to people. If

possible the same be mentioned at the end. continued by specific

dasavathara stothra stanzas.;
