Guest guest Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I thought Tuesday was Mars's day. I was taught Friday (Venus's day) was sacred to Lakshmi. Although I am financially challenged, a dear friend is fronting me the money to buy a bronze image of Heramba Ganapati, the five-faced, lion-riding form of Ganesha, who is special patron of the handicapped. I'm so excited! Any special practice associated with Heramba? -- Len/ Kalipadma Mon, 13 Jun 2005 06:27:11 -0000 "Nanda" <chandimaakijai Your goals forwarded to Swamiji Dear Sherri/Karen/Leela/Muktimaa/Vishwa/Ruchi, Your goals have been sent to Swamiji this evening. My guess is that he will offer them on Ashtami (Tuesday - Lakshmi's day). I pray that Lakshmi Maa makes all our spiritual goals happen . Jai Lakshmi Maa Nanda _______________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any special practice associated withHeramba? Namaste Kalipadma, This is from the book "Aum Ganesha The Peace Of God" by Ratna - Ma Navaratnam of Sri Lanka. My honor to meet her in Alaveddy, Sri Lanka. "She came under the gracious and benign quidance of Sat Guru Saint Yoga Swamigal ( My Guru's Guru ) ". "The Shodasa incantation contains sixteen of the hallowed Names of Ganapati, and represent the sixteen life-giving vowels of the sanskrit alphabet. It implies the vital need of man to invoke the basic source of life." The Shodasa Mantra Aum Sumukhaya Namah Aum Ekadantaya Namah Aum Kapilaya Namah Aum Vighnarajaya Namah Aum Vinayakaya Namah Aum Dhumaketave Namah Aum Ganadhyaksaya Namah Aum Phalacandraya Namah Aum Gajakarnaya Namah Aum Lambodaraya Namah Aum Vikataya Namah Aum Vakratundaya Namah Aum Surpakarnaya Namah Aum Herambaya Namah Aum Skanda-purvajaya Namah Aum Mahaganapataye Namah "He is invoked thus with white or red flowers, durva ( arugu ) grass, vanni and Kontrai blooms, fruits and sweets." With Love Om Namah Sivaya Kanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
