Guest guest Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 Dear Shri Lakshmi matha please accept my respectful pranams! It appears to me that Lord Shiva wants to discuss about Sri Saligrams when one or two in the group stray from bhakthi maraga and their ego starts to flirt around. Jai Mahadev! Jai Gowrishankara! You can email me seperately if you wish to know more about Sri Saligrams. I will be glad to give the knowledge what Matha Shree Raja Rajeshwari has given to me regarding Saligrama. I have had a lot of people in different groups asking me about Saligramas, and I have blessed to help them to know about HIM through Saligrama sila. I have also helped them get silas. Your life is now turing better since you came across Sri Saligrama. Just by hearding the word your life has started to change. Like the worship of Siva in the form of a linga, the worship of Vishnu in the shape of a Salagrama is aniconic in character. However, the linga may be a natural object like the white quartz (known as bana-linga) found in the river Narmada, or carved in stone by man. Natural stone forms of Linga are called ‘svayambhu’ lingas, while those made by man are ‘manusha’. There is also the practice of making temporary lingas out clay (mrt), cow-dung (go-maya), flowers (pushpa) or grain-flowers (pishta), which are dispensed with when rituals of worship is completed. The stone-lingas are usually found only in temples, and white quartz or crystal emblem represents Siva in household worship. But Salagramas are always only those which are naturally found in the river Gandaki; they are never made by man. And Vishnu has iconic images (like the incarnations, emantory and sportive forms; Rama, Krishna, Narasimha, Varaha, Kesava, Vasudeva, Hayagriva, Venkatesa, Ranganatha and so on), made by human sculptors Lord Shiva declares the greatness of Sri Saligrama Silas as follows in Sri Padma Purana: mallinga kotibhi drsthi yad phalam pujiti | salagrama sila yamtu ekasyam iva tad bhaved || "The merit obtained by seeing and worshipping hundreds of thousands of My Lingams, is equivalent to that obtained by worshipping one single salagrama sila." ato'dhisthana vargesu suryadisviva murtisu | salagrama silaiva syad adhisthanottamam hareh || The Lord resides in many places in which he may be worshipped, but of all places Salagrama is the best. ( Skanda Purana ) salagrama sila rupi yatra tisthati kesavah | tatra devasurayaksa bhuvanani catur dasa || With Keshava in the form of Salagrama sila reside all the devatas, asuaras, yaksas and the fourteen worlds. DRSTVA PRANAMITA YENA SNAPITA PUJITA TATHA YAJNA KOTI SAMAM PUNYAM GAVAM KOTI PHALAM BHAVET (HARI BHAKTI VILASA 5/384 from SKANDA PURANA) Lord Siva spoke to Skanda, his son, saying that any person who has seen Salagram Sila, paid obeisances to Him, bathed and worshipped Him, has achieved the results of performing ten million sacrifices and giving ten million cows in charity. PUJITO'HAM NA TAIR MARTYAIR NAMITO'HAM NA TAIR NARAH NAKRTAM MARTYA LOKE YAIH SALAGRAM SILARCANAM (HARI BHAKTI VILASA 5/396 from SKANDA PURANA) (Lord Siva speaks to his son, Skanda) In this mortal world, if anyone does not worship Salagram Sila, I do not at all accept any of their worship and obeisances. A Saligrama with the appearance of Shiva linga with the weapons (axe etc) and a third eye is usually called a Shiva Linga Shaligram. There is a Shiva Nabi Saligrama as well. Worshipping them will give all the benefits or bhoga for the worshipper. Please go forward in getting the Lord to your house. Pray on HIM and HE will get your home, the environment ready and then HE will come with Sri Devi Tulsi (Sri Maha Lakshmi). May Sri Saligrama bless you countlessly. SubhamDinamAstu!
