    Hi,
    My mom recently had been to the 'Veeraraghavar Kovil' in Tiruvallur.
    She bought a picture of the deity in the reclining position on Adi Sesha.

    Is it ok to keep this picutre in our pooja room and perform pooja?

    Devi mahatmayam/Duga sapthasati <hr style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);" size="1"> I would like to start chanting Devi mahatmayam.
    There is Argala-stotram,keelaka stothram etc in the beginning before the chapters.
    Can one divide & chant it due to time limits?
    I would like to do it on a regular basis if possible.
    So,please tell me the suggested way of chanting taking my time restraints into consideration.
    Thank you

    1 - it is not a must on ordinary days. When you do puja invoking the deity in the lamp, it is a must.

    2 - Sound energy drives away all the negative energy & invokes positive forces to take over.

    3 - This, you have to search. I have given the tamil versions below the sanskrit shlokas in many places.

    Love,
    Chithra.
