Dear Chithra.. When you have time, please could you continue with the 'Kanakadhara Stotram' thread? Love Pavithra

This because of her grace to devotees. Just like dark clouds pour rain very soon when wind blows on them and saves parched land, misery from our lives will vanish if Devi's grace falls on us like showers of rain! Pray, Devi, my poverty vanishes by showering your grace on me. த(3)த்(3)யாத்(3) த(3)யானுபவனோ த்(3)ரவிணாம்பு(3) தா(4)ராம் அஸ்மின்னகிஞ்சன விஹங்க(3) சி(H)சௌ(H) விஷண்ணே து(3)ஷ்கர்ம த(4)ர்ம மபனீய சிராய தூ(3)ரம் நாராயணப்ரணயினீ நயனாம்பு(3)வாஹ: நீருண்ட மேகக்கண்கள் நிழலுண்ட கரிய கூந்தல் நேர்கொண்ட மாந்தர்வீட்டில் நிலைகொண்ட செல்வப் பந்தல்! சீர்கொண்ட அமுதச்செல்வி சில்லென்ற காற்றுப் பாய்ந்தால் சேர்கின்ற மேகத் தண்ணீர் சிதறுண்டு பாய்வதைப் போல் வேர்கொண்ட பாவமேனும் வினைகொண்ட பாவமேனும் வேய்கொண்ட தோளினாய் உன் விழிகண்டால் தீர்ந்து போகும்! தேர்கொண்டேன் புரவி இல்லை; செல்வமாம் புரவியாலே திருவருள் செய்வாய் நீயே தேப்பெரும் கமலத்தாயே ! அன்புள்ள, சித்ரா.
Dear Chithra aunty, How are you? I guess you are busy with indexing and arranging the Recipes and Shlokas. Will you be posting the rest of the Kanakadhara Stotram soon? One more thing, among the links in your Signature, I am not able to click on A- Z Recipes. For this, we need to go back to the Recipe index and then look for it. Thanks Krithika ( Jithiks)
Dear Krithika, Your "diagnosis" is correct. I want to finish all indexing & then come here to finish it. To be very frank, nobody was showing interest in this thread & hence I slackened a bit. But I am sure to finish whatever I take up & will do it. I have corrected the link now & it works. Thanks for making me aware of it. Love, Chithra.
Dear Chithra aunty, The link works fine now. :thankyou2: I will wait for the Kanakadhara Stotram..the tamil font with the meaning is so divine and has kindled an interest in me to read it. Regards Krithika
Dear Chithra... I am very much interested in and am a humble follower of all your threads... There is so much people like me learn from you. Thanks and love Pavithra
Dear Chithra Maami, I am following your posts on Kanakadhara Stotram (and all your threads in this Forum of Sholkas) and I am writing in my Shloka note book. Please do post and enlighten us. Thanks Priya
Dear chitra madam, words cannot express how grateful i am to ur efforts in explaining this shloka (& various others too). I started chanting it for the past one month. since I can understand a little sanskrit I generally try to undersatnd the shlokas after learning them properly. thank you once again for explaining it. Actually i w'd also like to say something more too.... 3 yrs ago I got inquisitive about shlokas and wanted to learn them & within a months' time I found a very noble teacher who taught me (& a group of 4 ladies) practically every popular shlokas including Bhagavth Geetha ...... She was transferred last year & I was missing her .......... now again i have found a teacher through you. God has been very kind to me... regards., vidya
Dear Vidya, Thanks a ton. Right now I am busy with A-Z indexing of my recipes. After I finish that, I want to continue with Kanakadhara & complete the job. Now, I am assured of all your best wishes, thankyou. Love, Chithra.
