Guest guest Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 Dear All, As you might remember from this post /message/9484 March 8th is a big day for us for many reasons * Maha Shivaratri * It is New Moon that falls on tuesday and is in the Satabhisha star. This is a VERY powerful and auspicious configuration and has been mentioned in the Chandi as a good day to chant the 108 names . * This same configuration is also mentioned in the Kali Puja book (thank you Ramya) as a good day to recite Kali's 108 names. It would be great if we all made use of this opportunity and had a group sankalpa. So here is the minimum sankalpa and each person can expand it to however long they want depending on their time and circumstance. On March 8th we will do 1) Beginner Shiva Puja - and if you are not sure how to do puja, well its a good time to learn. 2) Recite the 108 names of Durga from the Chandi Path book 3) Recite the 108 names of Kali from the Kali Puja book Can you please let me know if you would like to participate in this sankalpa. There are no time slots like our previous sankalpas but everyone participating will chant it during the auspicious time - and if you send me your geographical location I can find it out for you. Please , please do not let a "fear" of chanting sanskrit inhibit you from joining in for this sankalpa. If you dont know how to do the Beginner shiva Puja, read the book and ask questions on the group . We are here to learn. Please make use of this opportunity. I look forward to hearing how many of us would like to participate in the sankalpa. JAI SHIVA JAI DURGA JAI KALI Nanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
