Dear Members,

 

Though these two names are used interchangeably there seems to be some

difference between these two books ... maybe in the way the prayers

are arranged.

 

Can some learned member tell me if these two books are really the same

or do they just deal with the same subject matter ... in 700 verses

..... all these verses being different except for some overlapping.

 

Regards

 

Pradeep

~ om tat sat ~

Thank you for maintaining the decorum of the Achyuta Ashram.

Reminders: (1) Recite the Shadakshari Mantra 'Hare Rama Krishna'

(2) Try to become Vegetarian - remember Akbar the Great who said that the human stomach should not become a graveyard for animals.

(3) Practise charity in thought and deed - do one free chart reading today

They both are same. As long as they are praising Mother GOD.
