Let us do everything meaningful.... Kanchi Mahaswamigal
1955
Navarathry festival at Kanchi Shankara Mut
Mahaswamigal is performing Lalitha Sahasranaama archana
No one can predict when it will end.
Swamigal says, ''Sahasra means infinite. It is not just 1000. We must totally involve in the names while chanting. That name must be rendered with understanding. Then our mind will focus in the ritual. When whole body and mind hands up with intelligence, the rituals will take you to the awareness level''
On that day Mahaswamigal did not offered the flowers to Deity for 40 minutes. People and mut workers were worried.
After 40 minutes Swamigal opened his eyes with tears of bliss and offered handful of flowers to the deity and says that the inner meaning of the name ''Shiva priya'' makes him to get into the real bhava bakthy and awareness and he could not come out of it.
So let us do any action with a good basic understanding and relish.
Thiruvalluvar also says, ''let us utter a word which has a meaning of good thought''
