Hari Sarvotama: SADAACHARA SMRUTI

Step 20 b

For LADIES

Urdhva Pundra Dharne

Applying Nama with gopichandana

Please refer the importance of Urdhva Pundra in previous posts.

A forehead without urdhva pundra is equal to graveyard (smashana). One has to do prayarchita by looking at the sun after seeing a face without urdhva pundra.

For ladies if they have to be sumangalis for a long time then urdhva pundra dharne is a must.

Women – Bend the thumb of your left hand inside your palm/fist and hold all the fingers together. First put drop of water, then bit of turmeric on which should mix gopichandhana. It has to be similar to the picture

Having the Saligramaabhishiktha Thirtha in the left fist,

Imam Me gange Yamune saraswathi Shuthudri Sthomam Sachatha PurushNyaa

Asikniya Marudwa Drudhe vitasthayaRjikiye ShRNohya Sushomayaa

Thus you are doing Prathana for Jalaabhimaani Devatha.

*the water that we mix the gopichandhana with has to be pure. We should mix it with nirmalya theertha/saligrama abhisheka theertha.

Then you are rubbing the Gopichandana with water and turmeric.

Lalate kumkumam chaiva sadhaa Lakshmi nivasagam.

Mudra dharne

For ladies there are only two mudras. Narayana mudre and gada mudre.

Gada mudra

Where should we apply gada mudra

1. Forehead

2. On the wrist

3. Below the wrist

4. Stomach

5. Lower middle of the spinal cord

Vidhya namaka bharathypathi samanathargatha jayanthi pathi utgitha bhinna Shrisahasrolkaya nam:

Tilaka dharne

Apply bhindi in the form of tilak.

After wearing Urdhva pundra, wear these mudras and then tilak. For tilak put a drop of water in the palm and then put kumkum, mix it and apply. Think of Lakshmi Narayana while keeping the tilak.

While mixing kumkum and applying tilak

Gade stotram

Ananta sana swetha dweepa vaikunta embo Bheema sena devaru. Enta Bheemsena devaru Gadayalli idre Krishna Devaru Astradalli. Mudaidhe hachidhare mooru koti punya. Vedige hachdhare Kasige hodha punya. Kasiyalli Magana nodithashtu punya. Prayogi snana madidhastu punya. Iti Shri Gade stotram sampurnam.

Haladi dharne

Apply turmeric.

After tilak apply turmeric on your cheeks. Then apply turmeric and kumkum to magalsutra. [

As for gents how tulasi/kamalaksha mala is very important to them, and gives them pavitra. For ladies karumani (black mani) is important for sumangalis.]

While applying turmeric

Haladi dharana stotram

Haladi daari draya naasanam

Soubhagya haldi. Sampatu haladi

Putra poutra abhivrtyartam.

Kulu kunj ashtu haladi hachi kodene

Beta thashtu muthaithi thana kodu.

Shri haladi stotram sampurnam.

Then start doing nityakarmas. If got any doubt feel free to mail – sarvotamah@gmail.com

Every woman puts rangoli in front of their home. We all know that only after cleaning outside the house we should clean inside our house. Okay so the thinking (anusandhana) while drawing the rangoli has to be like -:

While sweeping – oh Shri Varaha, im cleaning your house

While spilling water – oh Shri Varaha, im doing abisheka for you.

While drawing rangoli – Shri Varaha, im decorating you with jewels.
*Ladies should not say OM in any instance. Substitute OM with SHRI.
