Re: You're a Blessing in Disguise... wow what a post this has been!Too Good,may God bless you Chithra. There are many special touches here which makes this forum a special one,made by Women a beautiful creation of God!For example one line which touched me was this from the original post. ""I am aware one cannot spare a longer time on Deepavali day !""
I just can't explain all the thoughts that go in my mind when I read your posts. Each one touches my heart. Each post is so special. I try to read all that you write on religion too. Thank you so much for sharing. Oooo.....How I wish I could take the next flight to India and meet you personally and be able to just sit next to you and chat and chat with you. :bowdown Ever since I read the about the Laxmi Pooja, not once but over and over again. I wish to do it this year but don't know if its okay to just go and buy Goddess Laxmi's picture and place it in my house and light the 16 lamps. Is it okay to use clay lamps. I don't know how to recite the slokas as I'm a Sikh. Is there some prayer I can say in English. Please, I know its so close to Diwali and you must be busy. If I can't do this on diwali day then I will do it on a Friday. WISHING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS A VERY BLESSED DIWALI. jas
Re: Deepavali Puja - Part 2 Hi Chithra, Am very impressed with your Diwali Pooja. This year am going to do this puja at my inlaw place. Thanks a lots for this posting. May God bless you. Happy Diwali to you and to your family. Best Regards PadmaL
Dear Jas, your interest amazes me.ust keep the Laxmi picture, light 16 lamps (clay is fine - do not use iron or steel)& pray with devotion that Sarve jana (jeeva) sukhino bhavanthu. May all creation prosper!! love, Chithra.
Chituma... this is my first interaction with you in this forum but have been a very silent reader and beneficiary of your slokas thread...No words to praise your work...thanks again... Have a query for you.... this year, when should we do the Kubera pooja? Before Diwali on Friday or on Diwali day? Since we also perform Kethara Gowri viratham... wanted to know when we can schedule both....Wish you and your family a very happy and prosperous Diwali...
