Guest guest Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hi Swami devotees, 'Harivarasanam' is the creation of Kumbakudi Kulathur Iyer. In 1955, Swami Vimochananad recited this Ashtakam for the first time at Sabarimala. Sannidhanam, in early 1940s, 50s and 60s , was just wild jungle which few pilgrims visited. It is understood that a VR Gopala Menon of Alapuzha used to stay on at Sannidhanam even when the temple was closed. He built a shack and stayed there even when no human being was anywhere nearwhere nearby during those days when the temple was closed. It was said that the wild animals never troubled him and that he used to feed the wildest of animals. Some years later, when Devaswom Board was formed, the Web Master understands, he was asked to move out. He died as an orphan of the world at a tea estate at Vandiperiyar. He was the only companion to Thirumeni Eashwaran Nampoothiri (an old Mel Santhi of Sannidhanam) in those wild old days of solitude and dedication. Revered Menon used to recite `Harivarasanam' with all devotion. It was with immense grief that Thirumeni Eashwaran Nampoothiri heard about the demise of Revered Menon. At that end of the pooja that day, when he was about to close the doors of the Sanctum Sanctorum, he remembered Revered Menon and recited 'Harivarasanam' starting a nostalgic tradition that remains unbroken to this day. Harivarasanam is recited just prior to closing of the temple doors at night. As the final verses are being sung, all the assistant Santhis leave the Sanctum Sanctorum one by one. As the song ends, only the Mel Santhi is inside the Sreekoil. He extinguishes the lamps one by one and closes the doors for the night after the last lamp is extinguished.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 Swami Sharanam, Leeta got your query, Vratham is for 41 days, Let me expalin what VRATHAM Means You should eat (breakfast,lunch,dinner)only after bath. Should not use leather(not even shoes or slippers) Should sleep on Floor(can use a mat but not sponge or coat) If married, should not sleep with wife Should avoid contact with women in mensuration. Women above age of 55 only alowed to visit Shabarimala. Should not shave or have haircut during vratham. Now as for your query, if after vratham you are unable to go to Shabarimala, No problem, if you have worn MUDRA(thats the locket with Tulsi,Rudraksh mala), You can performe Kettunera(the headgear you carry to Shabarimala), under the guidence of your guruswami, and take the kettunera to the nearest ayyappa temple you have. If you have not worn Mudra, then you need not do anything. Any more queries ? Swami sharanam _________ Messenger - NEW crystal clear PC to PC calling worldwide with voicemail http://uk.messenger.
