Guest guest Posted September 12, 2003 Report Share Posted September 12, 2003 Dear Hari, Those are very interesting questions indeed Nethra means eyes, dosha - I'm sure you know it, it means some kind of defect/deficiency. The spiritual medium for the goddess told this to me when I was 11. The spiritual medium is not me I remember that it was a middle-aged woman who I went to visit at a far-away place from Chennai with my parents. She said I have this dosha and gave the lemons and asked me to do something with it for a week or so, and give it at her temple at Tiruverkadu and get new ones again to do something, and so forth. I only vaguely remember this and even the repeated renewal of lemons is something I learnt through my grandmother since she said this goddess prescribes this to be the most common remedy/practice to be observed for anything regarding doshas. These days spiritual mediums are not reliable. I'm not that very spiritual to speak to any god My grand-mother, as I stated in the previous mail, was a great devotee of this goddess. She lived in Triplicane (I read you're from Chennai too ) and from Triplicane to Tiruverkadu, it was a far, far distance away and 40 years ago, there were very scanty buses/transportation to reach the temple. I heard there was a public service bus or something every Sunday very early in the morning (ie like 5:00 am to be roughly around), and a return transportation very late in the night. To avoid missing the Sunday morning transport, my grandma used to catch the previous day night transport and reach the temple on Saturday nights. Those days, the temple used to be little scary, from what I heard, because it was predominantly a forest, with no proper places to rest. So my grandma and several other devotees used to lie down for the night in an open, scary place to get darshan of the goddess on Sunday (the most auspicious day for her) and also to be able to speak to a very devout male medium (a purohit at that temple) who used to come only once a month on late Saturday nights. Since my grandma did this as she had stated for like some 15 years, every week without fail, this goddess said/did all that to my Mom through this particular purohit/spiritual medium at the temple. Also she told my grandmother that because she worshipped her for so long, inspite of extreme difficulty with regards to commute, etc. that she would protect/save all my grandma's future generations for the next 21 generations (ie from any major danger). You have to note that inspite of all that devotion, even my grandma did not have any personal conversation with the goddess by herself This thing had run its course I suppose, as we grew older, we moved to further far off places, going to temple became an impossiblity so often due to us growing, my mom's work, etc. this specific purohit got old, he stopped his spiritual commune with the goddess, the people who came later were dubious and not genuine and so my family's touch with any reliable spiritualist communicating with this Goddess faded away. Then when I was 11, 20 years ago, we heard of another lady at some place far off from Chennai who was supposedly very genuine and only once went to visit her, when she gave me the lemons. For some reason, we never visited her again, don't know/remember why. I remember the lemon and nethra dosha thing only because several years later when I was told to wear glasses, this somehow came to my memory, for which my grandma told all that about the lemons, and thus still stays fresh in my memory. I don't even know why we stopped visiting her and I won't trust anyone these days that easily who claims to be spiritual mediums of any specific god/goddess, since 40-50 years ago, it was different times, there is some genuinity associated with the purohits at that time, which is extremely hard to find now. Also the purohit even at that time, never used to answer most questions of most people, and I only stated the one or two which she said/promised in a time span of 15 year worship by my grandma. And again, I'm not any spiritualist or medium Best regards, Jayashree vedic astrology, "onlyhari" <onlyhari> wrote: > ||Om Brihaspataye Namah|| > > Dear Jayashree, > > What is Nethra dosha?
