Guest guest Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 I've heard that gemstones should be blessed before wearing. How does one bless a triratna that has the gems of three different planets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 Dear Sriman, Namaste!!! Please do the respective pujas for each gem on the associated days. Then wear the kavacha.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Thank you for your usual prompt reply. Is it as simple as saying the correct mantra over the gem on the day of the planet, or are more elaborate pujas necessary? sacred-objects, "Richard Shaw-Brown" <rsbj66 wrote: > > Dear Sriman, > > Namaste!!!

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Dear Sriman, Your puja can be elaborate or simple - as you like, it is matter of your consciousness and respect to Grahadeva(s). Must simple is to seated in clean area facing East at correct time, then wash the talisman in pure water. Then offer incence to Lord Ganesh, and Ista Deva. Then hold the talisman in the offered smoke and recite the mantra, keeping in mind your purpose. Then offer to Lord Ganesh and Ista Deva (with Tulasi if Vishnu), then bow and offer prayer. After that please accept the talisman as blessed prasad, keeping in mind the ruling Graha deva, wishes for his blessing. In case of three gems, do this three different times, and only offer to Ista Deva on the 3rd and final time, then begin wearing.

Guest guest Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 Namaste!!! The days and times are different. Please tell me which 3 gems and I'll let you know that info. Best wishes, R- how does one know the correct time? Is it merely the morning of the appropriate day? sacred-objects, "Richard Shaw-Brown" <rsbj66 wrote: > > Dear Sriman, > > Your puja can be elaborate or simple - as you like, it is matter of > your consciousness and respect to Grahadeva(s).

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Re: triratna blessing Green sapphire for Mercury, Wednesday - 2 hours after Sunrise White sapphire for Venus, Friday - Sunrise Blue sapphire for Saturn, Saturday - 2 hours 40 minutes before Sunset BTW: This timing info came from a book named Graha Gochar Jyotish which I translated parts of in 1975. The book might still be available at Sanskrit book stores, or maybe it's out of print. I no longer have my original so I cannot quote the exact slokas. But I did translate long ago, and I follow to this day. Best wishes, Richard I know the days, but not the times. > > sacred-objects, "John" <ionesc0@> wrote: > > > > Namaste!!!
