Guest guest Posted March 14, 2002 Report Share Posted March 14, 2002 Narayan, Thank you, I have already read the whole book. Yes, it is a great book for remedies but what I am looking for is how to perform elaborate rituals and Yagnas, the book by sanjayji has mantras and it also talks about yagnas but did not talk in details of the rituals -- it refer to standard book. I am really looking for that standard book or books. Chandan vedic astrology, "iyergroups" <iyer_astro@m...> wrote: > Dear Chandan, > > Try Vedic Remedies By Sanjay Rath.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2002 Report Share Posted March 16, 2002 Hare Rama Krishna ----------------------- Dear Chandan, I think, you are from Bengal. There are quite a few very good books in Bengali on the subject of your mail. You can get these books from"Samskrita Pustak Bhandar, 38 Bidhan Sarani, Kolkata-700006." Ph- 241-1208. The books are: 1.Shanti Swastayan Kalpadrum: Rs.160.00 By- Aghorananda Agambagish. 2.Aasal o Adi Hindukriya Kalpadrum: Rs.200.00 In 3 parts By-Bhagabati Charan. 3.Anhik Krityam: ( Present price is not known to me.)It was originally in Six parts. Now they have made it compact and made available in three parts - but all the material of old edition is there.This is perhaps the best book for understanding the meaning and purpose of Puja.The author is Shyamaacharan Kabiratna Vidyaabaaridhi. If you can read Devanagari, there is a book( in 2 Vol.) on Stotra . There are 425 stotras in it . The name of the book is BRIHAT STOTRARATNAKAR.The publisher is CHOUKHAMBHA ORIENTALIA, PO CHOUKHAMBHA, PO BOX 1032. GOKUL BHAVAN , K 37/109, GOPAL MANDIR LANE, VARANASI-221001. If you can understand Hindi, an excellent small book about Puja-paddhati, was published many years ago by the Gita Press , Gorakhpur. I can't remember the exact title of the book( I could not find it in my library just now). The title is , I think NITYA KARMA PUJAA PRAKAASH or something like that. Above all, you must have PUROHIT DARPAN for details of every puja. This is also available from SAMSKRITA PUSTAK BHANDAR. I don't know how you can get these books in USA. You can make a phone call to the Samskrita Pustak Bhandar for Bengali Books.For Hindi Books, Mr Shiv Chadha is there. With Warm regards Dilip Banerjee. - chandan_astro vedic astrology Thursday, March 14, 2002 5:23 PM [vedic astrology] good book on performing Pujas, Yagnas?

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2002 Report Share Posted March 18, 2002 Dear list members, Books on rituals with elaborate procedure to be followed are many and known to come under sub-heading 'Karmkand'. How many are translated in English, I will let be known shortly. Best wishes, Shiv Chadha - Arno Holzmann vedic astrology Saturday, March 16, 2002 1:43 PM AW: [vedic astrology] Re: good book on performing Pujas, Yagnas? Dear Chandan,I dont think you will be able to find a standard book on ritual andyagnas as each of the three great spiritual traditions of India -Vaishnava, Shaivite or Shakti - have their own set of riualistic rulesand procedures.So finding a standard book on rituals really means finding the standardbook of your tradition or sampradaya. I know that the Gaudiya Vaisnavatradition which is followed in ISKCON has such a standard book. It isSat Kriya Sara Dipika by Gopala Bhatta Gosvami (written in Sanksrit inthe 16th century) and a translation might be available in larger ISKCONtemples or with the pujaris of such a temple.The Ramakrishna mission or other such societies have their own puja andyagna books. The best thing to do is to find out a competent priestbelonging to your favourite tradition and learn from him. In fact, Ithink it is virtually impossible to become expert in vedic ritualswithout the personal guidance of a guru. I don’t know where you live. Ifyou are in South India, you can approach any priest of the Sri or Madhvasampradaya as these people are reprtedly very expert in vedic rituals. If you are in America, James Braha seems to have connections to templeswhich perform rituals for his clients.Best wishes, Arno-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht-----Von: chandan_astro [chandan_astro ] Gesendet: Freitag, 15.
