Raam Raam - why not Shiv Shiv

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Namaste Members

 

My apologies to post non-astrological mail - but one of my friend, just out

of curiosity, asked why we greet each other as 'Raam-Raam' and not

something else, like 'Shiv-Shiv' or 'Brahma-Brahma'.

 

He says that it must have a mythological story behind it. We talked about

Raam as Vishnu avataar & Vishnu being the Protector, about 'Raam-Raam' is

opposite of 'Mara-Mara' in Sanskrit/Hindi that reminds us again & again

that this physical body is going to dust sooner or later and so understand

our 'REAL SELF', etc.

 

We talked about greeting each other as 'Jai Raamji Ki', 'Radhe-Radhe' or

'Hari Om' - all again *somehow* relates to Vishnu.

 

Any insight?

 

Thanks

Dear Tushankar,

Namaskar. People also chant Shiva Shiva. Brahma is not worshipped as per Shiva's directive.

Best wishes,

Sourav
