Dear All,
Greetings and Namaste. As the saying goes, I would like to make hay while the sun shines! I have not been able to spend time on my personal interests in the last 4 months of Covid-19 Work From Home but I am happy to make up during this short breather time because such breather time is rare and far in between. Apologies if I am flooding your mailboxes but I hope they are useful!
As Gayatri Japam (the day after Yajur Upakarma) falls on Tuesday (04-Aug-2020), I feel privileged to share a very rare Savitri Puja Vidhanam and Savitri Stavarajam by Lord Narayana as told to King Ashvapati and taken from Brahma Vaivarta Puranam, Prakriti Khanda and Chapter 23.
Lord Narayana prescribes a 14-year long Vrat on Goddess Savitri which should be started on the bright 13th day of Jyeshta month to be done on the 14th day (Chaturdashi). Puja to Goddess Savitri to be performed as prescribed after installing holy pot (ghata) and worshipping Lord Ganesha/Surya/Agni/Vishnu/Shiva/Parvati. Lord Narayana also gives a different Mantra for Goddess Savitri which is as per Madhyandina Shakha (branch).
Lord Narayana mentions that one who prays to Goddess Savitri with the short Stavarajam at the end thrice a day begets the benefit of chanting the four vedas.
May We Worship Goddess Savitri with this prayer on Gayatri Japa day!
With best regards & pranams,
K. Muralidharan Iyengar (Murali)
