Naama Manthram: 01 to 54 (54 Manthram)


Vagh Devathas revealing that Divine Mother has Three bodies viz: Sthoola, Sookshma & Para/Karana. These Three bodies also are known through three parts of Pancha Dasakhari Manthra (which is nothing but Sookshma Form). The first part consists 6 letters, second 5 letters and third 4 letters = 15 letters, this Manthra starts with Ka, Ha & Sa.

Divine Mother also sits in 24 supported Devathaas Simhasan. Eastside 3, Southside 5, Westside 7, Northside 4 and Center 5 total 24 surrounded Devathaas seat.

Red colour being symbolic of Compassion, Divine Mother appeared before all devotees in dark red colour. She emerged from Ghnanaagni (Fire of absolute knowledge). In other words, all true devotees usually become compassionate to all beings.

She had 4 equally competitive and merciful hands representing another set of 4 Dhevis, viz Aswarooda (Paasam), Sampathkari (Ankusam), Manthrini (Sugarcane) and Varahi (Pancha Pushpa Bhaanas). These Dhevis will help the devotees to overcome Lust & Desires, Anger, Mind, Indriyaas.

To summarize Divine Mother's this chapter, a true devotee when he/she meditate on mother's divine form it removes his Ignorance and makes him/her Absolute Knowledgable. Attaining absolute knowledge is Mukthi/Moksha.

Chapter - 1 = Sri Mathuravatharam
Manthram/Hymn:  Om Sri Matha/Sri Mathre Nama - Om Swadheena Vallabhayai Nama (Consists 54 Manthras).

The Paramathman who revealed in the form of Sri Lalitha Parameswari due to the supplication made by divine celestial personalities as well as prominent human devotees to provide them protection from Demon Bhandasuran. Though the Paramathman is living in everything and everywhere, yet Vasinyaadhi Vag Devathaa revealed to us that She has a living place where time and space has no existence, that is beyond the multi-trillion universe. She appeared in front of these devotees as a loving Mother (Matha). Her physical form was adorable and praisable on every front. A well structured physical body indicating that meditating on Her would make the devotees perfect in every form. We all know human life is meant for attaining perfection from defects in every manner. Devotees who are out of control of Six natural obstacles to attaining liberation such as Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha and Mathsaryam can be easily get rid of by meditating her perfect physical form.

The creator has given a promise to the human race that they will not be a victim of these six qualities of their own Mother and Sisters! Therefore, Paramathman came out to rescue those who are facing the difficulties to overcome these 6 diseases.

Divine Mother has 3 forms viz: Sthoola = Physical form, Sookshma/Subtle = Mathra form and Param = Vasana form/Knowledge derived from memory due to past action. Also known as Prathama Koodam = Bala Thripura Sundari, Madhya Koodam = Kameswari and Sakthi Koodam = Sri Lalithambika.

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam - Adhyaaya Saram Priliminary discourse

Why do you need Punyam (Holy Credits) continues...

11. Build temple or place of worship.

12. Help the seeker, whichever way possible.

13. Do not overuse, misuse or abuse anything on this earth. Use the minimum required quantity for your survival. All is not for you alone... future generation also needed.

14. Pay the right remuneration to the worker. Don't hide his/her eligible dues.

15. Do not deceive anyone, whatsoever reason. Avoid over promising whereby you can't fulfil.

16. Do your 5 important duties without any expectations every day. (Pancha Yagna/Feed = Deva, Pithru, Bhootha, Rishi and Adhithi / God, Parents, Naturally living beings, Saints & Gurus and Guest).

17. Console the needy, if they approach. It can be through Manasa / Vacha & Karmana.

18. Do not consume/enjoy any pleasure and lustful activities (Bhogham) it includes all types of self-enjoyment except Spiritual activities during Sandhya time (Cusp period/meeting day and night).

19. Respect all beings and items. Disrespecting can cause loss of inherited Punyam.

20. Do not swear upon God or Mahathma's name and do atrocities or unwise activities. No personal gain business in the name of God.

21. Do not deal or friendship with bad people (Sinners).

22. Don't instigate others to get their curse on you.

23. Never forget 3 important ikons of your life. Kula Daivam, Upasana Murthy (Personal God) and Guru who did Manthropadesam to you (it also includes own parents - who gave you a Name that itself your own identity Manthram...and what not they did not gave you!).

24. Either encourage people who are doing good work or at least do not be a hurdle for someone who is doing a good/holy work.

25. Poorva Punyam is like credit balance of your bank account. Do not overdraw such accumulated holy credits by doing/involving Paapa Kriyas. More credit balance will make you proud as well the forthcoming generations on this earth. In simple term, doing good to your mother will make you happy in this life (Ihalokam) and for father (Paralokam).

SRI LALITHA SAHASRANAMAM - ADHYAY SARAM - DEC-22-2017 - DISCOURSE - 8

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam - Adhyaya Saram priliminary discourse

Why should you chant Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam?

To get rid of Paapam (Demerits) and to be close to Paramathma in the form of divine mother.

Why do you need Punyam (Holy Credits)?

To be a good person in all terms. Also to achieve a prosperous divine life in case we miss realizing Paramathma within this life itself. Because Punyam (holy credits) will eventually evaporate as we live long at the same time Paapam (Demirates) keep increasing to a mountain size. Therefore all our ancestors and great people recommended us to get involved in any work that produces more Punyam so that rest assured.

How can one get more Punyam to one's life?

1. Do all your duties without any attachment or expecting the results of the work. Manasa (Mind), Vaacha (Speech) & Karmana (Action) one should be vigilant to perform his duties without expectation. Kriya = Work with expectations, Karma = Work without expectations.

2. If you don't do any Paapa Karma i.e. harming others in every respect.

3. Visit Holy places, take bath/dip in the holy water and meditate on Manthra and its Murthy.

4. Take care of Parents, Gurus (Masters and Teachers) and Children and Grand Children.

5. Do social services keeping in mind that "you are on God's duty". Do facilities for the public.

6. Do Dhana & Dharma (Involve in Charity) without any publicity.

7. Don't harm animals, birds and other creatures who are below to your status of life.

8. Do penance to keep the body serene accordingly mind and soul (Jeeva/Aathma) will also get purified.

9. Conduct Pithru pooja (rituals for Ancestors) and remember them on the departed anniversary days.

10. Don't pollute Prakruthi (atmosphere as well environment).

SRI LALITHA SAHASRANAMAM - ADHYAY SARAM - DEC-15-2017 - DISCOURSE - 7

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Adhyaaya Saram continues..

Shad Varga Pancha Upachara Pooja:

Out of 64 Upachaaraas (method and types of worships), the most popular and divine mother's preferred choice is Five Upachaaras to remind every being that these Five Element principles are the main cause of your life. Therefore, remember and embrace that choice to gain holy credits. They are worshipped in Physical form as well in Inner Mind (Maanasa). These 5 element principles lying in Beeja Manthra viz:

Lam - Prithvi Thathwam (Earth Element) - Served as Thilak on her Agna Chakram (Mid-point of eyebrows). Sandle paste, Kum-Kum, Vibhoothi or Clay Mud (like Gopi Chandan etc..), Water etc.

Ham - Aakasa Thathwam (Space Element) - Served as offering fresh, fragrant flowers or leafs to her lotus feet, lap & head.

Yam - Vaayu Thathwam (Air Element) - Served as offering Dhup, fragrant incents, across body especially and preferably to show within 16 inches from the idol. Also, show rear side of her thick locked hair cloud.

Ram - Agni Thathwam (Fire Element) - Served as showing Ghee lamp (Badra Deepam) within 16 inches. The point at her lotus feet and 6 Chakras then all three eyes. Thereafter withdraw the light from Hrudhaya (Chest).

Vam - Amrutha Thathwam (Water Element) - Served as offering recently cooked food, fruits and sweet water.

Sam - Universal Thathwam (Ashta Prakruthi Element) as Single Rasa/Jist Element - Served as offering Thamboolam (Betel Leaf) consisting Eight Mangala Dhravyas viz Chandan, Punak or Elaichi, Gorochanam, Kasthuri, Javvad, Akhil, Pacha Karpooram (edible raw camphor) and Kumkuma-poo (Saffron flowers).

The significance of this approach is that Humans are locked under the influence of 8 obstacles to see Paramathman. So by including these 8 items in the betel leaf and chew, the divine mother (or devotee himself/herself) crush those Bandhan and release them to see God. By intaking the juice (Rasa compared with Amruth). Those 8 Bandhas are Gruna/Veruppu/Disgust, Lajja/Shy/Naanam, Bhaya/Fear/Dhukkam, Sankha/Nidhanam/Hesitation, Jughupsa/Dislike/Nindhanam, Kulam/Pride of Clan, Seelam/Habits/Vasanaas/Swaya Maanam, Jaathi/Pride of Caste.

Also, note the Betel leafs when mixed with calcium (Chunnampu) it will get the power to destroy all bacterias and germs. At the end of the day, Paramathmaa being motherly nature, only wish to see her healthy children attain Amrutha.

Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Adhyaya Saram - Priliminary discourse..continues...

47. What is Purascharana Kriya

A Disciple who received Guru Mathra-Upadesam should do this function at-least once in a lifetime, if possible. Every Manthram has a number of syllables (Maathraas) which Guru will tell the disciple at the time of Manthra-Upadesam for his knowledge. The mechanism is as follows:
1. Manthra syllable times one hundred thousand (one lakh) times one should chant the Mathram
2. One-tenth of the Manthra should perform in the Homam (Havan)
3. One-tenth of the Havan should perform Brahmana Bhojan
4. One-tenth of the Brahmana Bhojan should perform Tharpan
5. One-tenth of the Tharpan should perform Maarjanam (Absolution or cleansing).

48. What is Pancha Easwara Kruthyam and subsequent Manthram in Sri Lalitha Sahasranam?

Srushti (Sri Matha), Sthithi (Sri Maharagni), Samhara (Srimadh Simhasaneswari), Thirodhanam (Chidhagni Kunda Samboodha....Siva Sakthyaikhya Roopini) and Anugraham (Sri Lalithambika).

So saying these Five Manthras a day, one will receive full blessings of Divine Mother.

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Adhyaaya Saram - Preliminary discourse continues...05

40. Nyaasa Vidhi

Rishi - Chhandhas - Devatha is the chronology for doing Nyaasam. The Bheeja manthram (Hymn) used based on the importance of its energetic field within our body. Nyaasam means cleansing or purifying the specific part of the body so that the divine power can stay there and resonate across the body. Three important components make the Nyaasam perfect viz: Bheejam/Seed (Om Ayim) - Sakthi/Energy (Om Sau) - Keelakam/Shoot (Kleem). It is like Germination process. In other words Manthraas invisible living beings!!

41. Vital part of a Manthram

They are three portions viz: Bheejam-Sakthi-Keelakam. The reason for that is, human beings cannot see all the existence of particles in this universe. Our eyes are set for certain things to be visible to us (in fact this is one of the limitations of human beings). Therefore, all the specials and divine powers are kept in the Bheeja (Seed) and covered with Maya so that ordinary people can't access or realize the importance of it. Our great Rishis (Mahasthmaas) spent years of time on meditation to reveal these powers to the needy so that he/she can elevate himself/herself from this trouble giving transmigration.

42. Nyaasa steps/methods/approach in Sri Lalitha Sahasranaamam

1. Thrikudam =Vaakhbavam (Bheejam) - Kaamarajam (Sakthi) - Sakthikudam (Keelakam)
2. Pancha Dasakshari = 5 + 6 + 4  (Bheejam - Sakthi - Keelakam)
3. Pancha Dasakshari three part's first syllables (Ka (Bheejam), Sa (Sakthi), Ha (Keelakam) - based on Kaadhi vidya sampradhayam.
4. Baala Manthram = Ayim (Bheejam) - Hreem (Sakthi) - Kleem (Keelakam)

43. Right-hand function in Nyaasa process

1. Bheejam (touching Naval part), Sakthi (Guhya/Anal part), Keelakam (both Feet)
2. Bheejam (touching Right-hand shoulder), Sakshi (Guhya/Anal part), Keelakam (Lefthand shoulder)

44. Different names/designated status of Manthras

1 letter = Pindam, 2 letters = Karthri, 3 to 9 letters = Bheejam, 10 to 20 letters = Manthraas and 20+ letters = Maala Manthram.

45. What is Khara Nyaasam /  Anga Nyaasam 

Touching specific part of the body with particular fingers (Anguliam).

Hrudhayam/Heart = Index-Middle-Ring fingers together
Sirass/Head = Middle & Ring fingers together
Sikha/Rear of head = Thump finger alone
Kavach/Right and Left Shoulders = All Five fingers together and simultaneously
Nethra Thrayam/Eyes = Index-Middle-Ring fingers together
Asthra/circulate your head with the right hand then bend middle finger under thump finger. Thereafter, join Index & Middle finger and beat once on your left palm, then roam/Circulate your head by chanting "Bhur-Bhuva-Suvarom.

46. Importance of Head / Heart & Sikha

Head - where the knowledge resides, Heart - where divine power resides and Sikha - Kundalini power comes and goes out from here. This is why the worshiper should touch these auspicious parts of the body.

SRI LALITHA SAHASRANAMAM - ADHYAY SARAM - NOV-24-2017 - DISCOURSE - 4

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Adhyaya Saram - Preliminary discourse - 04 continues..

28. Pancha Easwara Kruthyam / 5 fundamental functions of divine mother Paramathma.

Creation (Srushti), Sustain (Sthithi), Withdrawal (Samhara),  Concealing (Thirodhana), Divine Gracious (Anugraha). Keeping this as its primary object - in Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Sthothram all these five functions were signified in five Manthras itself, viz: Sri Matha (Srusthi), Sri Maharagni (Sthithi), Sri Madh-Simhasaneswari (Samhara), fourth to nine hundred ninety nine mathras signifies Thirodhana and finally Sri Lalithambika, the 1000th Manthra representing Anugraham.

29. Brahmam / Maya / Jeeva

Due to the influence of Maya (Delusion), Brahman becomes Jeeva / changing its status to (Soul). The Jeeva has 3 main bad qualities viz: Ego (Anavam), Delusion (Manyika) and Action (Karmic) which bound the Jeeva to not realize that it is Brahman itself, who is none other than Siva / Parasivan itself. In other words, afflicted Siva himself is Jeeva.

30. Conclusion of Adhvaitha Vedantham

Nothing exists other than Brahman, however, when the Brahman manifest (being its duty) it joins hands with un-true Jeeva and Universe (Prapancham). When Jeevan starts its journey to reverse these phenomena it will become Brahman again. This means the transmigration is absolutely over.

31. Section of Sri Lithopakhyanam

There 6 main sections viz: 1) Mantha Ghantam, 2) Nyasa Ghantam, 3) Pooja Ghantam, 4) Homa Ghantam, 5) Rahasya Ghantam and 6) Sthothra Ghantam. Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam is narrated in the Sthothra Ghantam.

32. Classification of Sri Puram (Residing place of Divine Mother)

1. Thrikonas (Triangle points) in Sri Chakram, 2) Three parts of Pancha Dhasakhari Manthram 5+6+4=15 letters, 3) Three forms of Kundalini Sakthi (Ghnaana, Ghnaathru  Ghneyam).

33. Thre portions of Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam

1. Poorva Bhaga = 51 (pair) slokas, 2. Madhya Bhaga = 182 1/2 (pair), and 3. Phala Sruthi = 86 1/2 (pair) Sruthi. Total 640 lines.

34. Where is the source of Thri Puram (Residing place of Divine Mother) / physical place?

1) Beyond all Universal Boundaries (Brahmaandas), 2) Summit of mighty mount Meru (Meru Parvath), 3) Center of Milky Ocean (Ksheera Samudram).

35. What is Nyasam?

A function of cleansing to adore/imbibe divine power within our physical body. So that the entire body can be under the influence of divine influence. Mainly Head, Lip, Heart, Neval, Rear side of Head, Feet, Shoulders, Eyes, Anal Area etc..

36. What are the main course of Nyasam?

Two types:
1) Laghu, where, Ganapathy, Navagrahas, Nakshathras, Yoginis, Raasis, Pindas are worshipped.
2) Maha, where, Prancha, Bhuvanam, Moothaas, Manthras, Devathas, Maathruka are worshipped.

37. Three types of Sri Lalitha Sahasranama Pooja

1. Anthar-yagam (inside heart or in mind), 2) Bahir-yagam (Outside with the help of Pooja items) and 3) Mahayagam (8 elaborative manners with Pooja items in open Mandap or Anahatha Chakram).

38. According to Sri Hayagriva's advise to Sri Agasthya that Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam should be chanted or worshiped like your Nithya Karma (Daily Duties), hence no exeption.

39. Only through Sakthi Upanasana a seeker can realize Para Siva, who is Moksham itself, why?

Realizing Siva is Moksham (Effulgences, Motionless, no act, nothingness, absolute etc are actually Siva). Whereas when Thri Dosha (Anavam-Kalmam-Karmikam) afflicts on Siva, the Siva immediately changes its status to Jeeva. Hereafter the Jeeva's journey to start going back to realize its original Siva status. Please note these three Malaas (Doshas) are independent in this universe (they are floating in this universe, freely, that is why they attack/approach/observed to Siva/light/Chaithanya). Now, the truth is that ever since Srusthi/Creation started...immeditely the Siva merged with Sakthi (in fact that is called manifestation). Therefore, to find out / realize Siva there is no alternate route other than seeking the help of Sakthi to identify its Siva Chaithanyam. (Source : Siva-Ghnaana-Pradhaayini - She is the one who reveal Siva to you!).

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam Adhyaya Saram - Preliminary discourse 3 continues...

21. In earth, which places Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam was initiated, to whom?

Lord & Maharshi Sri Hayagriva ( the form of Sri Mahavishnu) gave this invaluable spiritual Sthothram to Sage Agasthya after severe tests. The Sasthras indicating 2 places viz:  a) Thirumaichur - Kumbakonam, b) Upanishad Brahma Madam - Kancheepuram.

Demon Bhandan, his brothers, and children too, and many other demons of the past Yugas!

24. Formation of Bhandasura.

Lord Siva put an end to Manmatha by opening his third eye and left with only ashes. One Ganapathy namely Chithra-Gaman made a human form out of the ashes and Brahma named him as Bhandan. This same Bhandan praised Lord Siva by chanting "Satha Rudriyam" and lord pleased with his devotion grant him 60,000 years of rulership in Heaven namely Sonitha Pura. Due to the influence of over pride (Ahamkara), Bhandan started giving trouble for heavenly personalities that lead him to die in the battle with Sri Lalithambika. Since he had a boon from Brahma that he will be killed only by a female that gave way to divine mother's incarnation. Later the same place was renovated by heavenly Architects namely Mayan and Viswakarma and named the place "Srimannagaram". All heavenly bodies requested divine mother to reside in that abode along with her other half part Sadhasiva.

25 Why should you chant Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam?

To seek and attain Prema Bhakthi and discriminative true knowledge.

26.  Who chanted first, Sri Lalitha Sahasranamam?

As per the order of Sri Lalithambika / Parasakthi, Vasinyadhi Vagdevathas loudly chanted when al Brahmadhi-deva-rishi-ganas were present.

11. AUM and Divine Mother are the same!

Saktheyam consider "Divine Mother Parasakthi" is the Supreme Brahman Paramathma. I have identified a simple way of understanding this truth in a lay man language. We all know AUM is nothing but Paramathma Brahman itself. The constituion of AUM is - A kara U kara M kara.

VIVEKACHUDAMANI TAMIL DISCOURSE : CHAPTER 1 - SLOKA 574-580 -OCT-27-2017 -Final

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Upasamhara continues....

Sloka: 574

In Reality, you are Brahman Itself, therefore nothing exists other than Brahman. Even the state narrated as Liberation/Mukthi itself not exists. Until you realize that "you are THAT" everything there.

Blessed disciple liberated! (Moksha Prapthi):

Sloka 575:

Though it is the most secret knowledge (Vedantha Rahasya being the crest of the thoughts of the Vedas - The Viveka Choodamani), I (your Guru) narrated to you as I would do to my own Son because of your obedience and eagerness to learn with reverence. This learning will help you to remove all impurities of Vasanas (Kali) that would make you completely free from desires!

Sloka 576:

Hearing the words of (Upadesa) the Teacher, the disciple prostate to him with reverence and left without any bondage in every aspect (Manasa/Vacha/Karmana). At this minute, the disciple has realized that He and His Teacher are the same Athma (Brahman). This is what realization!

Sloka 577:

After disciple left, Guru steeped in the ocean of Bliss. Indeed blessed the whole world.

Anubandha Chathushtayam / Chathurvida Lakshnapoorthy (The glory of Vivekachudamani)

Sloka 578:

The logical thought of Vedantha has been explained in a comprehensive manner through the dialogue between Guru-Sishya (Teacher and Disciple) so that this will help the seekers (Mumukshu) of liberation from all bondage. Sankaracharya further explains 4 important qualification/signs of pillars to learn Vivekachudamani. They are:

1. Adhikari - Who is eligible? Ans - Mumukshu (Those who seek liberation)
2. Vishaya - The Subject? Ans - Athma-gnanam (Real Self Knowledge)
3. Sambandha - Relationship? Ans - Niroopa Niroopakam (Disciplined learning)
4. Prayojana - Purpose? Ans - Sukha Bodha (Easily attain true Self-knowledge)

Sloka 579:

This Vivekachudamani is useful or achievable only to those seekers for liberation under the specified 6 qualifications. According to Acharya, others cannot appreciate it due to the Maya afflicted in them.

1. Those who have completely purged the impurities of the mind.  (Vihitha-Nirastha-Samastha-Chitha-Dosha).  For purification, Acharya recommended Sama, Dama, Uparathi, Thitiksha, Sradha and Samadhana.

2. Those who are averse to the pleasure of the ever-changing world. (Bhava-Sukha-Virata).

3. Those whose minds are quiet and calm because of reduction of Vasanas (Prasantha Chitham)

4. Those who seriously study the scriptures with faith i.e. mental attitude towards learning the Upanishads (Sruthi Rasikas).

5.  Those who are putting forth the efforts to learn the true knowledge (Yataya/Yathi).

6. Those who have a burning desire for liberation (Mumukhuva).

Sloka 580: (Last Sloka):

For those who afflicted in this Samsara  by the burning pains caused by the scorching sun rays of the three-fold sorrows  (Aadhyathmika, Aadhi-Dhaivika & Aadhi-Bhowthika), and those who in delusion, roam in a desert in search of water, for them here is the glorious message of Adhi Sankara Charya Bharathi. The message is simple and straight forward - Ocean of Nectar, the non-dual Brahman, within easy reach, in order to lead them to Liberation (Mukthi).

In other words, the final result of Spiritual Self re-discovery is a total liberation of the mortal individuality from all its physical, mental and intellectual involvements. Acharya says this is called LIberation (Mukthi), Self-Realization (Athma Sakshathkara) or God Realisation (Easwara-Sakshathkara).

Subham Bhavathu....Om Thath Sath.

I am thankful for my Manasika Guru Sri Adhi Sankara Bharathi Bhagathpadhar for rendering this service to the needy through me. I am blessed indeed because he has chosen me to do this nish-kamya-karma. My pranams to my heavenly living parents and all Gurus and spiritual seekers. 

Let me start with next project....

VIVEKACHUDAMANI TAMIL DISCOURSE : CHAPTER 1 - SLOKA 571-573 -OCT-20-2017

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Upasamhara continues...

Sloka 571:

Bondage and liberation are attributes of the intellect (Budhi) which foolish people superimpose upon the Reality (Athma) and get confused. Immutable Reality is absolute knowledge, non-dual and unattached. All the declarations of the scriptures are mere blabberings. The Reality has to be realized by an individual, not by words or readings.

Sloka 572:

The intellect is the main culprit for all kind of un-wanted attributes! Whatever one attribute to the Reality (Athman) is not belong to eternal Paramathman! it is only a self-satisfying play. The Infinite has no qualities nor space nor time bound, it is beyond everything.

Sloka 573:

Bondage and Liberation are the creations of the non-apprehension of Reality, in the Self (Athma) they don't exist. Maya which creates bondage and liberation

Om Namasivaya Nama:

Upsamhara continues....

Sloka 568:

By realizing the oneness of the Jeeva and Brahman, his/her bodies (Gross/Sthoola, Subtle/Sookshma and Casual/Para), consisting of ignorance will be burnt. Due to which he/she will realize that I am Brahman itself, therefore no transmigration! When you think you are That there is no trouble otherwise all sort of trouble will arise.

Sloka 569:

May does not exist in the Self (Real!). No bondage or liberation to Self. It is always unafflicted and ever living.

Sloka 570:

There can be no veiling for Brahman!. Because it is absolute, Infinite Supreme and Non-dual.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS IN MY BLOG CONTENTS

Dear Browsers / Commentators

First of all, I would like to thank you for your valuable comments, suggestions, opinions, wishes, and greetings. May God bless everyone to be happy in life. 

I would like to dedicate this section to answer and clarify those issues raised by some of you within my limited knowledge. This information may or may not be the ultimate however I will try my best. You can send me your personal questions to my email id: venky50@gmail.com. As and when I find the time, I will surely reply to you.

Please regularly check this section in case you are expecting any reply from my side with regard to your specific question.

Sivoham....

===========================================================
Year 2017:

Q. Sri Devi Bhagavatham some links are not working?
A. I am sorry, due to file corruption I am unable to retrieve old recordings. However, I am trying to fix this and if I could succeed I will upload again.

Q. Poorvadha husband and Chitra4 wife, compatibility issue?
A. My compatibility chart is based on quantitative grading. Any matching that can achieve 5+ then i would like to consider them as potentially matchable horoscopes. All marriage matching has to be done from female to male side only. The Poorvashada girl can get Chitra boy matched...not vice versa. Anyway, this is only a preliminary test 1 out of 3. {Three tests are: Quantity match (Characteristics), Dosham (Poisonous Chemicals that miss the match with opposite sex chemical combination) then Dasa Sandhi (Clash of ruling period change) }I give more importance for Qualitative grade and Mana Porutham. There are total 21 poruthams are prescribed by the Sasthra. Chithra girls are more experimenting than Poorvashada boys, therefore, don't bother much since you have already married. Now live happily with removing all negative reasonings...May God bless you.

Q. Same star marriage - Chathayam and Chathayam?

A. Please refer my blog itself. It has an answer. Only the following stars will get matching of the same stars.

Aswini, Krithika, Mrugaseersha, Punarvasu, Poorva-phalghuni, Uthira-phalghuni, Chithra, Swathi, Visaka, Anuradha, Uthrashadam, Sravanam, Poorva-proshtapada, Uthra-proshtapada and Revathy.

Please note : 108th paada (the nakshthra paada of boy, from the paada of girl, i.e. the one pada before the paada of girlis to be rejected according to Dina Porutham (which is very important for Brahmins due to religious rituals). in other words 4th paada of girl and 3rd paada of boy of same star to be rejected.

Q. Makam girl and a Revathy boy matching?
A. Kindly note they are having Shashtashtama Dosham and less porutham obtainable. Therefore not a great matching. Another reason Makam is Kethu rep and Revathy Budha...both star lords are extremely powerful in terms of knowledge. Therefore, they will have less attraction towards material goals and comforts. Moreover, both star lords are Reps of knowledge, wisdom, and liberation. Therefore husband and wife will have ego clash and difference of opinion. So it is better to avoid such matching.

Q. Revathi boy and Rohini girl.
A. They can get decent matching. Moreover, they will fall under Guru Chandra yogam like Gaja Kesari yogam will be achieved. 

Q. Krithika girl Punartham boy?
A. Difficult to get quantitative porutham. However good mana porutham can be achieved because Punatham fellow knows how to love and convince his life partner.

Q. Krithika girl and Rohini boy?
A. Better to avoid this matching why because of no porutham, more over Star Lords Sun+Moon = Amavasya. So imagine how the life will be.

Q. Uthradam girl and Revathy boy?
A. No porutham. Kindly note if set stars are not getting porutham as per Jyothi Sashtram I can't help it.  no need to ask me again. 

Q. Visakam boy and Moolam girl. Whether the boy's father will die if son married a Moolam girl?
A. No need. Detailed horoscope reading a must before a conclusion. Only 4th pada of Moola star girl has this poison effect because she will upset boy's father quite often and she will shun him...eventually even if he is alive it is as good as a dead man walking. Lots of myth involved but in reality no need to get scared. Nowadays most of the newly married couples are living separately, therefore, a direct interaction with father-in-law is highly minimized. So logically we can get away with this rule. Also, see his lifespan in the horoscope before a final exchange of a word. For your information, Lordess Saraswathy's start is Moola star. Her father in law is Maha Vishnu...did he dies after Brahma's marriage?

Q. Dina porutham is missing. Is there any problem in marriage?
A. Not to worry. Dina portham is actually meant for knowing the partner's mindset. It is more applicable to Brahmins who do more rituals than other work (Husband and Wife together). This is especially for rituals and even during intercourse. If the mind is different then the result of the product will be inferior. You may not achieve 100% fruitful end result. Now you know why Dina porutham is important to consider. So you couple make sure that this mistake does not knowingly happen so that you can overcome. Also, compensation is suggested for Dina porutham is: If Rasi, Yoni and Mahendra poruthams are obtained. 

Q. Kettai boy and Poorottathi girl match? can they match?
A. Interesting question raised, you claim you are in love for 5 years (hats off to you) and now you are seeking horoscope guidance is a kind of shame! May God bless you. According to Jyothi Sasthra, there is no quantitative matching but out of 24 poruthams, one is called Mana Porutham which is very important in marriage life, which you both have. Now, what do you want? Thank God and move to next stage. Just ensure by reading both your horoscopes with a non-commercial astrologer to ensure any future misfortune! All the best.

Q. Why Siva's name is not mentioned in the Sandhya Vandan?
A. It is mentioned in a subtle way. First of all there is no difference between Siva and Vishnu. They are same. People differentiate them due to ignorance. Of course, this can be explained in many ways. First, Sandhya Vandan is meant for casual people not renounced ones. Usually, Siva devotees are renounced and monks and they don't need to perform Sandhya Vandan. Siva signifies NO ACTIVITY whereas Vishnu means FULL OF ACTIVITIES. Another point of view.Vishnu represents Administration of the life (Sthithi) Thri-Vruthi. By doing Vruthi/Kriya, people are committing more and more sins. So one needs to pray to Lord Vishnu more because Sandhya Vandan is to wash out our sins. Sandhya Vandhan is not a Bakthi Sadhana...it is a duty-oriented. Let me also explain Karma and Kriya/Vruthi. Karma is Nish-kamya work whereas Kriya/Vruthi is Kamya work. We all know 99% of the work we engaged is to gain or lose something with a desireful goal in front of us, this includes even to the most well known Asrams!.

Yet, for your knowledge, i would like to point this area so that you will be happy and clarified. Remembering Siva is mentioned in the Devatha Namaskar in the Upasthana manthra. When you face North direction and say "Ruthagum sathyam para-brahmmam Purusham Krishna-Pingalam". The meaning for this is "I BOW DOWN TO HARI-HARA, who is Parabhraman, the base of beauty in all visible thing, Who dwells in all bodies, who is the confluence of the dark-hued VISHNU and the redness of SIVA, Who transcends sex, Who is three-eyed, and Who assumes all forms."

Q. What is Chovva/Kuja/Mars Dosham?
A. According to astrology when Mars posited in Lagna, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th in the natal horoscope they are afflicted by the impurities or wrath of Kuja. Scientifically and medically Mars is containing poisonous chemical components than other planets. So, when Mars occupy these positions it disturbs the normal life. These houses are very important for a person's successful married life, therefore for marriage purpose, one must clarify and scrutinize proportionately with his/her spouse horoscope.

Please don't think that those who have Mangal dosha are untouchable or unfit for living. It is an explosive chemical in the wrong places of the body which can cause life threat or sickness or loss on undertakings etc.. However, this can be cured with proper gross and subtle medication. Subtle treatment is Prayers and Gross is proper matchmaking.

Another basic problem of Kuja Dosha is that those who have this Dosha (Affliction), they should not curse anyone particularly husband or wife or children. The curse will eventually happen which can cause sorrows. Even if you curse unintentionally it will happen why because Mars's malefic effects will encourage you to curse and fight, that is why elders use to avoid Mangali horoscopes. Now you know why learned ones are avoiding in the selection of Mangali horoscopes.

Now let me tell you the importance of these houses where it is afflicted due to the inappropriate digestive chemical that causes trouble in life.

Lagna - Head, 2nd house face/education/wealth, 4th heart, breast, family & mind, 7th genital area, 8th discharge area and longevity and 12th foot and loss. Imagine, for a successful married life these said areas has to perform well otherwise the life will be doomed!

However, there are 100s of compensation for Kuja Dosha suggested by the Astrology. One of the best and immediate solution is getting aspect from Jupiter/Guru. (Basically, a Doctor is always with you...so you don't worry much about your health.). This Doctor is Vaidhyanathan the God himself. Jupiter is considered as Lord Mahavishnu & Dhanvanthari who will cure all deceases. Please note innumerable explanations can be given in this regard, due to space and time limit I would like to stop here. May God bless you.

Q. What is the difference between Sahasrara Pathmam and Brahma Randhram?
A. Though are the same however there is a slight difference in it. Randhram means "Hole", Brahma means Ultimate Absolute. Whereas Sahasraaram is the whole and Brahma Randhram is the centre of Sahasrara Padhmam. Exactly like a lotus flower is Sahasraara Padhmam and the centre bud area is the Brahma Randhram, just like entire head and centre of the head.

Q. Which is the best suitable stars for my Son/Daughter is a common question raised.
A. Please go through my latest publication "Dasa Porutham Matching Guide" in this blog itself. All your questions are answered in it.

QCan the Narasimha Gayathri and Garuda Gayathri mantra chant by anyone regardless of gender and age? Is it necessary to get this mantra from a guru? Please also mention the best time to chant these mantras...
A. Both these Gayathri Manthras are meant for a specific Upasana purpose. General Gayathri is the Savithri Gayathri which you often hear even from the street. However, all Gayathri Manthras must be received only from a practising Guru. Guru must initiate this Manthra procedure since all Gayathri Manthra will be effective only when you say with Nyasam that includes Rishi-Chhandhas & Devatha. Thrikala Sandhyas (Cusp) is the best time for chanting Gayathri Manthras. Narasimha Gayathri will ward off Fear and Uncurable illness and Garuda Gayathri will nullify Sarpa Dosham and Sapam also poison attack.

General Notes:

I am trying to give free service to needy people, whereas some commercial people are trying to put their advertisement on comments. I do respect "Professionals" and they need to be compensated for their time spent...but don't make use of my platform for that. A sincere request to you to stay away. This is one of the main reason I am not publishing your comments. Thanks.
