SUMMARY:Satha Sahasra Havanam - Part 5
DESCRIPTION:Lalitha Sahasra Nama also called as Rahasya Sahasranama is one of the most revered methods of worshiping universal mother Goddess. Starting the very first mantra as Sree Matre Namah – worshiping the mother\, the thousand hymns end with Sree Lalithambikaye namah – respecting all aspects of Devi in between. \nAshram will be conducting 100 rounds of Lalitha Sahasranama homam (havan) on second sunday of each month across 2022. Homam is the highest form of ritualistic worship as prescribed in Hindu traditions. Fifth round of Havans will be conducted on 15 May\, 2022 starting at 9:00 AM at Ashram site – 17119 McLean Rd\, Pearland\, TX 77584\, right across Meenakshi Temple in Pearland\, TX (Houston). \nYou are invited to attend the next and fifth all day Lalitha Sahasranama homam at the Ashram site on next Sunday – 15th May 2022. This day is also Vaishakha Poornima! \nThe Hindu month of Vaishakh is regarded as one of the most fortunate months to perform fast\, donation\, Homa\, and other religiously relevant and significant things. The Purnima that falls in the month of Vaishakh is celebrated as Vaishakh Purnima. Devotees worship and offer prayers to Lord Vishnu on the day of Vaishakh Purnima with utmost dedication and faith. \nSkanda Purana is one of the most religious Hindu scriptures which highlight the importance of this day. It is believed that devotees get blessed with abundance\, rewards\, and peace by worshipping Lord Vishnu on this particular day. By observing a fast of Vaishakh Purnima\, the devotees can attain prosperity. The day also holds immense significance as on this particular day people also celebrate Buddha Jayanti. \nAs per Buddhist texts\, Lord Buddha was born in 563 BCE in Lumbini\, Nepal on the day of Vesak. Also\, it was the day of Vesak when Buddha attained enlightenment under Bodhi tree in BodhiGaya. On the same Vesak day\, Lord Buddha left for abode in the eighteenth year of age. \nHomam will start at 9:00 AM with Ganapathy homma(Havan)\, Hanuman Homam Vishnu Sahasranama Homam and then up to 11 rounds of Lalitha Sahasranma Homams\, to e finished by 3:30 PM or so – well in advance of the lunar eclispe. \nWe will continue the efforts of Krishi pooja and Nakshatra Vana (star forest) during this weekend as well. Krishi Pooja is a divine concept introduced by Jagathguru Swami Sathyananda Saraswathy Thiruvadikal even on this weekend. Food is the basic requirement for sustaining any life form – including human life. Hence the concept of farming to produce food itself is one of the most basic and respectable forms of worship. Hence this concept of Krishi pooja. Devotees will be planting seeds / plants of herbs and vegetables. \nAshram will continue planting trees of astrological significance for nakshatra vana. Nakshatra vana or star forest is a concept where an individual plants respective plant / tree corresponding to their birth stars. Scriptures advise that nurturing your own plant will protect your body. Southern boundary will have three plants for each star (nakshatra). Eastern and northern boundaries will have Fruits and special plants / trees like Rudraksh\, Camphor\, Chandan (Sandal wood) etc. Diagram below will give an overall view. Please contact volunteers or write to info@srdmh.org to know your respective plant with details like date of birth and place of birth if you do not know your birth star\, and the process involved in setting up a plant. \nThose who are willing to volunteer to support Krishi pooja may please email info@srdmh.org with their willingness and availability. Expectation is to spend 4 to 6 hours a week to support planting and watering efforts. No extreme hard work is anticipated. \nHomam can be seen via this zoom link from 9:30 AM CST for one hour\, assuming logistics will support. https://zoom.us/j/96105607749?pwd=Y1NFOFNlSSt0YXR6S3hYajFtd3BlQT09 \n

SUMMARY:Aacharya Sameeksha (Sanyasi Sangamam) - 2022
DESCRIPTION:Hindu way of life is well described by Acharyas. Acharya is one who leads the way for others. Difference between a teacher and Acharya is that teacher just teaches while Acharya leads the life so that others can learn the entire sequence from them. All our Rushi’s were Acharyas. Bharatheeya gurukula concept was also based on learning from Acharyas. \nSreesakti Saanthananda Maharshi\, our patron will be leading the Acharya Sameeksha – starting at 5:00 PM at Meenakshi Temple Kalayana Mandapa Hall.

SUMMARY:Sunderkand Path - By Dr. Ramaanand Saraswathi from Washington DC
DESCRIPTION:Sunderkand Path – By Dr. Ramaanand Saraswathi from Washington DC \nSundarkand\, the Fifth chapter of Ramayana features in most versions of the sacred text– Valmiki Ramayana\, Ramcharitmanas (Tulsi Ramayana) and Adhyatma Ramayana. Recitation of Sundarkand is believed to confer great benefits. By removing afflictions\, worries and mental agony\, it infuses new hope\, courage and confidence. Sundarkand is said to usher in prosperity\, luck\, health and wealth to everyone who recites or even listens to the verses. \nThree prominent versions of Ramayana in circulation today are the Valmiki Ramayana\, Tulsidas’ Ramcharitmanas and Adhyatma Ramayana. Of the three\, the textual composition of the Ramcharitmanas\, which has been directly inspired by Anjaninandan Sri Hanuman Ji Maharaj\, Himself with its sanctity endorsed by Lord Siva\, represents the epitome of Bhakti Bhava. \nSwami Ramanand Ji\, an eminent scientist by profession at FDA in Washington DC has dedicated his life towards serving Lord Anjaneya by way of spreading the holy name of Lord Ram. He is best known for his frequent conduct of programmes on Sundarkand and Akhand Ramayan recitations with deep personal involvement and devotion. His weekly zoom-based Sunderkand recitation is viewed and followed by many across the globe. Swami Ramanand Ji has kindly consented to fly down to Houston to flag off the very first Sunderkand event for “Sree Rama Dasa Ashram” in Houston. He will be accompanied by Shri Inder Prabhu of his organization\, International Society for Spiritual Advancement (ISSA) and Shri Ramsradha Prabhu\, both flying in from Chicago. \nRequest you to participate in this very divine function that starts at 2:00 PM and subsequent Sanyasi Sangamam which starts at 5;00 PM in the same hall\, followed by prasadam/dinner. \n
