Ranganathar in Orgonite Relieving Our Relationship Problems REMOVING DOSHAS of SUKRAN Reclining Pose Ranganathar in Orgonite Relieving our Relationship Problems REMOVING DOSHAS OF SUKRAN Lord Ranganathar is in Reclining - Ananta sayanam posture (yogic eternal sleep of yoga-nidra) as smiling Lord Vishnu. He is relaxing on the coil of the seven hooded Great Serpent bed of God Adisesha in an ocean of milk as per the “Puranas", the Vishnu Sahasranama. His consort is Goddess Lakshmi, doing pada seva to Him. He is enjoying the aroma emanating from the lotus held in His left hand, and His right hand is blessing Lord Siva. Lord Brahma is seen on a lotus, which emanates from the navel of Vishnu. Structuring the orgonite Base for Ranganathar: A rectangular shape beedam with a medium size of 25*21*2.9cm base is made for keeping the Gold Coated ashtadhatu idol of Ranganathar with Height 3 inches and weight 300 grams in the center permanently. Two kinds of orgonite are shown above. Though there are fifteen kinds of ingredients inside, some of them are mentioned here. Black Saligram inside orgonite: According to the Hindu tradition this stone is the shelter for a small insect known as "Vajra-Keeta" that has a diamond tooth which cuts through the Shaligram stone and stays inside it. Saligram is usually black in color with the symbol of Sudharsan chakra – the discus of Vishnu. The chakras can be seen both outside and inside. Black natural Shaligram heals us to come out of the black box of our past life fears and traumas and guides to surrender to Lord Vishnu in Ranganathar form. Valampuri /idampuri Shankhus inside orgonite; Valampuri- It is the favorite of Goddess Maha Lakshmi. This is also called as Dakshinavarti Shank - a Sea-shell which opens towards the right side, and is very rare with lot of spiritual significance also called as Vishnu Shank. Resin in the orgonite keep squeezing the sea shells and crystals to purify the place energy and the negative energies are cleansed out of the place. This Shank in orgonite saves a person from all troubles and problems, removes hurdles and fulfills all wishes and offers Marital and material success. Lotus beads inside: Lotus beads are a favorite of Goddess Laxmi, so that She likes to sit on lotus and called as Kamlavasini. Lotus flower seeds represents the symbol of fortune. What can we achieve? Surrendering to Ranganathar orgonite worship is (Ran gam - meaning of heaven) giving boon for unmarried people and the separated couple. Unmarried men or women get married soon. Also the couples, who have quarrels or separation in married life, get united upon worshipping Lord Ranganathar orgonite. People also pray for boons of wedding, child, education, wisdom, progress in professions, family prosperity, growth in agricultural yields etc., and for a life free from material worries. Placing Properly: Place this orgonite facing the north in the SW of your Bedroom or in your sacred altar. Helps to improve Marriage luck. Do not let other people touch your orgonite .Once in a weak, leave it under sunlight for fifteen minutes. Color may change over a Period of time, however this does not dilute the power of the orgonite. Mantra matters: (Ranganathar Mantra Sadhana): Ohm Lakshmi sametha Sri Ranganathaya Nama! This is a powerful simplified shloka that when recited regularly will relieve the relationship disorders. Chant and continue this mantra minimum 9 times daily. .

Tulsi Vivah is conducted on the day after Kartik Ekadashi (the eleventh bright day of the new moon, Amavasya). According to Hindu mythology, Devi Tulsi is ceremonially married to Lord Vishnu on this day. The festival continues for five days and concludes on the full moon day of Purnima.. The festival is based on the legend of the marriage (or Vivah) of the holy Tulsi plant with Lord Vishnu. The Tulsi plant is considered holy by many Hindus and traditional Hindu homes used to have Tulsi plant growing in the courtyard. Offerings were made to the Tulsi plant every morning and evening during the daily prayers.

About Us Shree Saligrams is considered the direct symbol of Lord Vishnu, They are found only in Mukti chhetra and Damodar Kunda (north-west of Nepal). According to the religious text of Devi Bhagwate (and other scriptures) to kill demon Jalandhar Lord Vishnu have to destroy Sati Brindha's sati dharma. When he did that Sati Brindha gave four seeming desecrations to Lord Vishnu to become stone, grass, tree, plant. To wash away this reaction Lord Vishnu took four avatars (incarnations). He became stone (Shree Saligram) grass (kush) tree (Pipal) and plant (Tulsi). Since this time the Saligrams are considered to be most auspicious to behold and to worship. The worshipper knows no fear and by Shree Saligram's mercy the worshipper is blessed to attain all desirable things; worldly comforts, good wife, good sons, good health and wealth etc. It is all by the blessings of Lord Mahavishnu that His pastimes are being served. It is an excellent service for devotees of Lord Narayana. Saligram , the only self incarnated god in Kali Yuga, found in northern parts of Nepal on the banks of Gandaki river. Our mission is to provide devotees best saligram as Saligram Strotram suggest. We are dealing in Saligram from many years and gain knowledge and experience to choose saligram and name them according to the ancient scripture.

  • Introduction
    Introduction TRACY PINTCHMAN1 There has been a tendency in many forms of religious discourse to asso- ciate religion primarily with the nonmaterial realm of extramundane considerations and experiences, especially beliefs about God or “the Ulti- mate” variously understood, timeless truths about eternal realities, and experiences that lie beyond the realm of ordinary human awareness. This tendency has remained remarkably tenacious despite numerous attempts by religious studies scholars to unseat it. It can be traced to the origins of contemporary religious studies in Enlightenment-era Protestant theol- RJ\ZLWKLWVHPSKDVLVRQEHOLHIDQGGRFWULQHDVWKHGHÀQLQJHOHPHQWVRI UHOLJLRQ7KHÀHOGRIUHOLJLRXVVWXGLHVFRQWLQXHVDOVRWREHLQÁXHQFHGE\ early phenomenological categories and approaches to religion scholar- ship, with their emphases on, for example, “the Holy” or “the Sacred” as categories that reside, ultimately, outside of history and the material realm. As Dick Houtman and Birgit Meyer have recently observed about the origins of the academic study of religion, Wasn’t the opposition between spirituality and materiality the GHÀQLQJ FKDUDFWHULVWLF RI UHOLJLRQ XQGHUVWRRG DV JHDUHG WR D WUDQVFHQGHQWDO´EH\RQGµWKDWZDV´LPPDWHULDOµE\GHÀQLWLRQ" Grounded in the rise of religion as a modern category, with Protestantism as its main exponent, this conceptualization entails the devaluation of religious material culture—and materiality at large—as lacking serious empirical, let alone theoretical interest. (Houtman and Meyer 2012, 1) 1 © 2015 State University of New York Press, Albany 2 Tracy Pintchman An overriding emphasis on ideas, beliefs, theologies, and doctrines as the essence of religion persists in a widespread discursive practice of equating “religion” with “faith” and speaking of individuals as “mem- bers of the (Buddhist, Jewish, Hindu, and so forth) faith” and promoting ´LQWHUIDLWKGLDORJXHµDVDPHDQVRIEULGJLQJGLͿHUHQFHVDPRQJUHOLJLRXV- ly diverging groups.
