Importance of Panchopachara pooja and What is Daiva Runa?


Importance of Panchopachara pooja



Whenever we perform any ritual to god, Panchopachara pooja will be given the first prominence. This means Gandham (sandalwood), Pushpam (flowers), Deepam (lamp), Doopam (incense sticks) and naivedyam (food). Similarly, we have Dasopachara pooja – pardyam, argyam, achamanam, snanam, vastram, gandham, pushpam, dhoopam, deepam, naivedyam.


Shodachopachara pooja - pardyam, argyam, achamanam, snanam, vastram, aabharanam, gandham, pushpam, dhoopam, deepam, naivedyam, aacahmana, tambula, stotra patanam, tarpana, namaskaram


When you light ghee lamp in your house then you need to light the lamp towards the right side of the god. If you are lighting with oil then best of all other oils is til oil, you need to place the lamp towards the left side of the god.




What is Daiva runa


As a human being, we should be thankful to God for giving unimaginable intelligent body. In Hindu mythology among all ‘runas’ we should accomplish daiva runa. During our life span will be suffering from various obstacles because of maya, and we are forgetting the truth of human.

We try to claim that these obstacles are all part of God's game. We need to thank god every day by performing pujas, archanas, dhana (giving), donations, etc. and say
“eshwaranugrahapraptha prityardham” and “dharma, artha, kama, moksha, phala purshardha prityardham”. 

Money is not created by God, only human beings created it for his needs. But still, we are struggling hard to make more and more money either by hard work or by illegal work. In this process, we are totally neglecting god. Whoever person follows the steps of good and donates his wealth along with prospering in his life and accomplishes daiva runa will be able to create steps to reach god easily.

Why do we Chant Arjuna Phalguna on Thunder Storm | 10 Names of Arjun

Image
Arjuna Phalguna: Thunderstorm occurs naturally; our ancestors say not to stay under a tree when there is a thunderstorm. If we observe storms occur mostly over trees. Also now a day we have learned that we should not be even below telephone poles or electric poles. Scientists say that there may be a slight discharge of electricity from them which is not safe to humans. Also many suggest that instead of standing on the ground sleeping is good, even if you are struck from storm sleeping position helps to lower the risk as storm energy is absorbed by earth (as earth acts as a neutral body) From our childhood, whenever there is a thunderstorm our parents utter the word “ Arjuna Phalguna ”, there is a small story from Mahabharat epic behind uttering those words. When Pandavas are returning from the forest, Arjuna brings Uttara to Sami tree for weapons. In order to rescue cows stolen from Duryodhana and Karna, Arjuna says to bring down weapons from the tree. During that period o...

Star influence when attaining puberty

Image
What is the influence of stars when girl reaches puberty stage? In India, people give a lot of importance when their child reaches puberty stage. It reminds the child parents that they have become old and their responsibilities have grown.             When it comes to astrology, people believe stars play important role in their lives. There is a belief that stars change their effect/influence on a girl. Stars have one kind of effect on a girl before her puberty and other effect after puberty. So when a girl reaches puberty stage, father (head of the family) rushes to astrologer to know stars influence on her child. By this they can know good or bad signs going to happen in future.              Even if the stars influence during the attainment of puberty is bad, there are few options to please the lord of the star by performing some pujas and homas.    ...

Years back when there is no proper communication medium like mail, phone, and letters. We use to send our communication with the help of trained birds.
