ECLIPSE/NAVAGRAHA PARIHARAMS

[Guest guest]

Dear Members, Dr.M.V.ANANTHAPADMANABAN SWAMY in his DINAM ORU DIVYA NAMAM program on JAYA TV on FRIDAY 8-1-10 advised us to recite slogam 749 of SRI PADKA SAHASRAM to get rid of all GRAHANA/NAVAGRAHA DOSHAMS. The SLOKAM and its meaning from e book 25http://www.sundarasimham.org/ebooks/ebook25.htm SlOkam 749 of SrI RanganAtha PaadhukA SahasramkanakaruchirA kAvyAKhyAthA shanaIscharaNOchithAshrithagurubuDhA BhAsvadhrUpa dhvijADhipasEvithAvihithaviBhavA nithyam viShNO: padhE maNipAdhukE!thvamasi mahathI vishvEShAm na: shuBhA grahamaNdalIMeaning: Oh Manipaaduka! You have a gold-lustre of red hue. You have a vital place in Ramayana etc. You move about only slowly. Gurus and learned ones cling to you. You shine like the sun. Eminent Brahmins worship you. You stay put to the Lord's Feet permanently. (The planets, namely, the red Angaraka, Sukra alias Kavya, Sani who is slow moving, Guru and Budha, Soorya and Chandra-these encircle in their paths in the celestial sphere. They will prove auspicious in specific periods, being otherwise at other times.) But you are always auspicious as a peculiar planetary combination, unusual this way, conferring benefits on us permanently.Special Notes by V. Sadagopan1) UtthamUr Swami's anubhavam: After Swami Desikan thought of the golden Mount Meru, he shifted his attention to another golden vathu (viz)., AnkArakA, one of the nava grahams known for his golden color.From AnkArakA, Swami Desikan moves on to the other planets except Raahu and Kethu. The group of AngArakA and 6 other planets are known as Graha MaNDali. The worship of Graha MaNDali wards off all inauspiciousness. Swami Desikan considers the golden PaadhukAs as the best and biggest Graha MaNDali since they are assoicated with the holy feet of the Lord. As such, PaadhukAs confer unalloyed bliss for its devotees as the Supreme Graha MaNDali.Swami Desikan comments: "Oh golden PaadhukAs celebrated

in RaamAyanam and moving slowly following the pace of Your Lord! You are approached by the great AchAryAs and Yogis and you have a supremely lustrous body. You are forever worshipped by the Brahmins and have attained great glory by your intimate association with Your Lord's sacred feet. You, who confer the choicest blessings on us, are the most auspicious combination of all the 7 planets (Graha MaNDali).Swami Desikan hints that the ordinary Graha MaNDali will give boons only to some. The extraordinary Graha MaNDali (The Lord"s Paadhukais) will however bless one and all and even confer Moksham on Its worshippers. Such is its unique power!SRI RANGANATHA PAADUKHA SAHASRAM 4822) Srimath Andavan's anubhavam: The inner meaning is that for those who have SadAchArya sambhnadham, there will be no mischief (ubadhravam) from the nava grahams. Oh PaadhukE! On You Golden sheets are enmeshed. Great IthihAsams like SrImad RaamAyanam and MahA Bhaaratham sing your glories. You enable the Lord to have enjoyable travels on you. All the AchAryAs and Scholars have sought refuge in you. You outshine the Sun with Your lustre. All the sreshta BrAmins worship you. The Lord's sacred feet acquire special glory because of their sambhandham with you. As a result of all these subha lakshanams, you ward off theSrIinauspiciousness caused by the nava grahams and confer auspiciousness on those, who seek your protectionFor Navagraha dhOsham, there is no need for SrI VaishNavALs to do Navagraha Saanthi Homams. Recitation of the 749th SlOkam of SrI RanganAtha PaadhukA Sahasram daily would ward off the Nava graha DhOsham: NaaL yenna seyyum kOL yenna seyyum Yennappan ThALL paRRinARkku meaning: What troubles can the nakashathrams, Thithis and Grahams cause for one, who attaches Himself firmly & solely to the Feet of the Lord and the SaThAri there? dhasan, N.PADMANABANHARE RAAMA HARE RAAMA RAAMA RAAMA HARE HARE HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA KRISHNA
