Questions pertaining to Homams(havans) as explained by PVR Narasimha Rao ji

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

 

I have a few questions which I hope to get the answers here.

 

A = do homams for all gods daily

B = do homams daily according to the ruling day god

C = do Ganesha's homams daily too

 

Should I do option " A " daily ? or option " B " + " C " ? or should it be option " A "

+ " C " ?

 

Please help me in clearing my confusion. I am very confused at the moment.

 

Last but not least, I would like to thanks PVR.N.Rao ji for his infinite

contributions (all what he've been doing so far). I really appreciate this kind

sense of spreading bhakti to people.

 

Regards,

anooj

Dear Anooj,

 

I dont know about your background, but, typically, for most of us, we would

either not be performing any of the homams or at best performing or

participating in it once in a year. So, our next step should be practical and

enable us to cultivate the niyama of performing it everyday without any

obstacles. Keeping this in mind, I myself started performing Mahaganapathi Homam

everyday. Doing homam for all gods can be cumbersome and more importantly to

introduce the concept of niyama, which includes sticking to one god. So, options

a & b are ruled out. I suggest c.

 

Regards

-Narayan-

I totally agree with you, Praying defferent Gods on each day in the ways like

homa, japa, tapah, puja, etc. just like doing without concentrateing our will i

think this is useless, keeping our heart clear i mean without any other

thoughts, and concentrating on God svarupa in our thought or in our mind, just

in very short time we get the blessings of that God, its personal exeriance.

Namaste,

 

As Narayan says, A and B are inefficient and C is the best. I can actually

suggest D - pick any one deity (e.g. Rama, Krishna, Shiva, Ganapathi etc)

and do homam to that deity everyday (or every week).

 

If one wants water, one should dig in one place as deep as one can. Instead

of digging two feet in 10 places, it is better to dig 20 feet in one place.

The chance of finding water is higher then.

 

Best regards,

Narasimha
