Yet another great contribution by Ms.Chitra for posting the lyrics for Aadi lakshmi devige aarathiya yetire. The lyrics are attached below in both Kannada and English. Thanks so much Ms.Chitra.

ಆದಿಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಿ ದೇವಿಗೆ ಆರತಿಯ ಎತ್ತಿರೆ
ಅರಿಶಿನ ಕುಂಕುಮ ಹಚ್ಚಿ ಹೂಮಾಲೆ ಹಾಕಿರೆ
ಧಾನ್ಯಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಿಗೆ ನೀವು ಧೂಪ ದೀಪ ಹಚ್ಚಿರೆ
ಕನಕಲಕ್ಷ್ಮಿಗೆ ನೀವು ನೈವೇದ್ಯವ ತನ್ನಿರೆ

ಬಲದ ಕಾಲು ಮುಂದೆ ಇಟ್ಟು ಹೊಸಿಲು ದಾಟಿ ಬಾರಮ್ಮ
ಭಾಗ್ಯ ತಾಯಿ ಮಾಂಗಲ್ಯ ಸೌಭಾಗ್ಯವ ನೀಡಮ್ಮ
ಹಾಲು ತುಪ್ಪ ಹೊಳೆ ಹರಿಸಿ ಹರುಷ ಸುಖವ ತಾರಮ್ಮ
ಧನ ಧಾನ್ಯವ ಕೊಟ್ಟು ಸಂತಾನ ಕರುಣಿಸಮ್ಮ

ಕ್ಷೀರಾಬ್ದಿತನಯೇ ಆನಂದನಿಲಯೆ ವಿಷ್ಣುಪ್ರಿಯೆ ಬಾರೆ
ಕಮಲನಯನೆ ನಿಜ ಕಮಲವದನೆ ಕಮಲಾಕ್ಷವಲ್ಲಭೆ ಬಾರೆ
ಪುಷ್ಪಸುಗಂಧಿನಿ ಹರಿಣವಿಲೋಚನಿ ಕರುಣೆಯನ್ನು ತೋರೇ
ಅನಂತರೂಪಿಣಿ ಚಿರಸುಖದಾಯಿನಿ ಇಷ್ಟಾರ್ಥವನೇ ತಾರೆ

Aadhi Lakshmi Devige aaratiya ethire

Sree Narasimha Jayanthi – May 4th 2012

Narasimha Jayanthi celebrated on May 4th  2012

This day signifies the appearance of Lord Narasimha on the planet. Lord Narasimha is the fourth and the greatest incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He is believed to have appeared to protect his devotee, Prahlada, from his father Hiranyakashyapu .

If you listen to the song ” Narashima Nembo davana” posted on youtube, there is a paragraph which explains how Lord Narashima came from the pillar. Hiranyakashyapu pointed out at a pillar in his palace and asked Prahalada whether Lord Vishnu was present in it pillar. Prahalada who was a great devotee said yes. Next, you know Hiranyakashyapu uses his Gadha and broke open the pillar and there emerged our Lord Narasimha who than slained  Hiranyakashyapu using his sharp paws.

The day signifies the triumph of good over evil and the eagerness of the lord to protect his devotees from evil.

When my Parents visited us, my Father recited the “Bhagavatha Purana” for three weeks at my place. The way my Dad explained this part of the Purana, brings tears to my eyes every time I listen “Narashima Nembo Devana”. The greatest mistake I made was to not record the purana. Hopefully will record the next time my Father visits us.

Here is the link for the song Narashima Nembo Devana on Lord Shri Lakshmi Narashima

Indhu shukravaara Shubhava Taruva Vaara – ಇಂದು ಶುಕ್ರವಾರ ಶುಭವ ತರುವ ವಾರ Lyrics

Yet another awesome lyrics posted by Ms. Chitra. Thanks again.

ಸರ್ವ ಮಂಗಳ ಮಾಂಗಲ್ಯೇ ಶಿವೆ ಸರ್ವಾರ್ತ ಸಾಧಕೆ
ಶರಣ್ಯೇ ತ್ರಯ೦ಬಕೆ ದೇವಿ ನಾರಾಯಣಿ ನಮೋಸ್ತುತೆ

ಇಂದು ಶುಕ್ರವಾರ ಶುಭವ ತರುವ ವಾರ
ಸುಮಂಗಲಿಯರೆಲ್ಲಾ ನಿನ್ನ ಪೂಜಿಸುವ ಪುಣ್ಯವಾರ

ಮುಂಜಾನೆಯ ಮಡಿಉಟ್ಟು ಕುಂಕುಮವ ಹಣೆಗಿಟ್ಟು
ರಂಗೋಲಿಯ ಬಾಗಿಲಿಗಿಟ್ಟು ಹಣ್ಣು ಕಾಯಿ ನೀಡುವ ವಾರ

ಮಲ್ಲಿಗೆ ಜಾಜಿ ಹೂಮಾಲೆ ಹಾಕಿ ಚಂದನ ಹಚ್ಚಿ ಸಿಂಗಾರ ಮಾಡಿ
ಕರ್ಪೂರದಾರತಿ ನಿನಗೆ ಬೆಳಗಿ ಭಕ್ತಿಯಿ೦ದಲಿ ಭಜಿಸುವ ವಾರ

ಸುವಾಸಿನಿಯರಿಗೆ ಕುಂಕುಮ ಹಚ್ಚಿ ಸಂಭ್ರಮದಿ೦ದ ಬಾಗಿಣ ನೀಡಿ
ಸರ್ವ ಮಂಗಲೆಯ ಕೀರ್ತಿಯ ಹಾಡಿ ಸಕಲ ಭಾಗ್ಯವ ಬೇಡುವ ವಾರ

Sarva Mangala Maangalye Shive Sarvaarta Saadake
Sharanye Trayambake Devee Naaraayani Namostuthe

Indhu shukravaara shubhava taruva vaara
Sumangaliyarella ninna poojisuva punyavaara

Munjaaneya madiuttu kumkumava hanegittu
Rangoliya baagiligittu hannu kaaayi needuva vaara

Mallige jaaji hoomaale haaki chandana hacchi singara maadi
Karpoora daarati ninage belagi bhakti indali bajisuva vaara

Suvaasiniyarige kumkuma hacchi sambramadindha baagina needi
Sarva mangaleya keerthiya haadi sakala bhaagyava beduva vaara

Lyrics for ರಾಮ ಮಂತ್ರವ ಜಪಿಸೋ – Rama Mantrava Japiso

P.S: It has been a long time since I posted anything or even replied to comments. I am really sorry about the same. As much as I don’t like to say, work has been quite hectic with lots of travel. I am hopeful of working locally for the next few weeks, and will post as often as possible.

Thanks for all the support and wonderful comments. Truly appreciate it.

Thanks so much to Ms. Chitra, and Mr. Lakshman for providing the lyrics for ರಾಮ ಮಂತ್ರವ ಜಪಿಸೋ – Rama Mantrava Japiso. Attached are the lyrics in Kannada and English.

ರಾಮ ಮಂತ್ರವ ಜಪಿಸೋ ಹೇ ಮನುಜ

ಕುಲಹೀನನಾದರು ಕೂಗಿ ಜಪಿಸೋ ಮಂತ್ರ

Akshaya Thritiya ಅಕ್ಷಯ ತೃತಿಯಾ – April 24th 2012

Akshaya Tritiya ಅಕ್ಷಯ  ತೃತಿಯಾ is the most important day in the hindu calendar.  Akshaya means growth and tritiya is the third day of the month in Vaishaka Masa. They say that in order to perform any major function like marriage, gruhapravesha you don’t even have to check your horoscope for finding a good Muhurtham. Any ritual or religious function performed on this day leads to growth.

The Uttaradi matta panchanga also mentions it is very important to apply gandha ಗಂಧ to the Lord. So, if you have access to the same, please do that as well.

On this day, many ladies give thambula including blouse piece, and other items. Any thing you give or donate they say becomes akshaya. Meaning infinite or one that never diminishes.

So, if you have decided to do anything new this year, this is the right day to get started.

Sri Rama Navami – March 31st 2012

P.S: I have been traveling a lot the past few months. I have gone all the way from Florida, to Texas and writing this post from Vancouver, Canada. I was reminded by my Husband when he asked me when was Rama Navami. It is a great privilege to have the calendar at hand on the computer. I will be reaching home tomorrow night from Canada. However, will recite the slokas on my way home. Happy Rama Navami.

Rama Navami falls on the ninth day(Navami) of the Hindu calendar year during the Chaitra Masa Suklapaksha Navami. It is a celebration of the birthday of the Lord Rama. Ramnavami usually occurs in the months of March and April.

As always, here are some very popular slokas to say on that day.

May Shri Lord Rama bless you all.

1. Rama Stotra in the Vishnu Sahasranama, say this sloka 3 times as mentioned in the sahasranama.

Sri Rama Rama Rameti Rame Raame Manorame
Sahasra Nama Tat Tulyam Rama Nama Varanane
Sri Rama Nama Varanane Iti

In most Madhwa houses, the leaves of neem also called Bevu ಬೇವು is mixed with jaggery called Bella ಬೆಲ್ಲ; and is distributed on the occasion. Neem, which is extremely bitter in taste( Kahi) , and jaggery which is sweet and delicious, signify the two different aspects of human life – joy and sorrow.

Here are some recipes posted in this blog to prepare during the festival:

• Authentic Madhwa Dishes. This has recipes for Cucumber Kosambari, Beans Palya, Potato Palya, Lemon Rice, Ambode, Majjige Huli, Nucchina Unde, Gojju, Badam puri, Akki Kadalebele Payasa, Hayagreeva etc.

P.S: As always no food is prepared with onion or garlic.
