Dear Chitraji, thank u for ur blessings. ur words made my day. m so far away from my family and all the elders, i actually feel empty that i dont have any one to take aashirvaad frm them. ur blessings gave me that statisfaction. thank u so much. i will try and incorporate ur guidelines in the puja. and abt time, i totally understand. my husband tells me the same thing. but the peace of mind that u get after it, is priceless. that alone keeps me going. love and regards, Aarti
:2thumbsup:Hi Chitramam, Its amazing!I do daily puja as taught by my guru who is a Srividya practioner. He has initiated 'Bala Tripurasundari mantram'to me. I've one doubt about which mantra should be recited while offering the naivedyam. Please enlighten me. I'm going for a vacation for a week.I'll participate in full scale in this forum when I'm back. Thanks &Bye.:wave latha.
Dear Latha, Welcome to I L & to this forum. Usually for naivedyam " Brahmarpanam followed by ombhurbhuvasuva ----amruthopasmaranamasi is chanted. But, My personal opinion is, if you are initiated a mantra, that can be chanted for everything ! Atleast that is what i do. Yes, I will wait for your active participation ! Love, Chithra.
Dear Chitra How are you I just cannot tell you how addicted i am to this site.Now its holidays for me so my major time goes in browsing through your receipes and the religious sites.Honestly it gives me a lot of peace since we are going through some ups and downs.I want to perform the ganesh pooja at home but i dont have the requd utensils is it ok if i use steel bowls ? What prasadam should i make and is it a must to keep a coconut.Please advise .I also read that you are into reiki and pranic healing.Hats off to u a treasury of knowledge.I am really lucky to know a great person like you.What should we do remove negative energy from the house is mopping the floor with salt a way to remove thesame.if so then how must we do it. Once again looking forward to the new posts and pictures .Thanks a ton for all the good work. Take care and god bless with lots of love asha
Dear Asha, You write with so much of love & affection that I become very emotional on readig your posts. For offerings forGanapathi pujai, cook in whatever vessels you have but do a naivdyam from non-steel vessel to the extent possible. It can be even glass or terracota. It is easy to make poricha kozukkattai given in my recipes. You can make a payasam or neyyappam or sundal also aong with it. Please go through the entire shloka & special shloka threads. In one of the posts I have written, how to eliminate negative energy. It is not easy for me to write it all over again ! Sorry !! Love, Chithra.
Dear Chitra Wow that was a quick response .Will defenitely look into the shloka index and read it .Thanks once again With lots of love asha
