Cause and Effect-a few dreams of rajagopal

Embodiments of Love!
Due to other works and travel I could not visit my blog for long!

I am back with a big bang;
There had been dreams in the last 2 months including this day; i will try to remember and record a few major dreams;

Dream 1: ( in June)

My eldest BIL meets me on the staircase; he has his younger grandson ( Vasudevan’s son); he tells something and is holding washed clothes to be dried by spreading on the terrace floor of the house; I collect from him and reach terrace;
Terrace has a different setting; it has the pandal setting of a function being conducted; my Mother in Law in a silk saree is lying on the blanket with face looking at the other side; we talk to each other; she said something which I forgot now

Dream 2 (probably in July 17)

I am sitting with my CMD, knee touching( which is not at all possible in reality) he is talking to me; I visit a house –vast -no human occupants; I see fruits spilled over in a corner-could be green grapes; I feel like eating; in the perceived kitchen( there is no room….it is my perception or knowing) my sister Mythili akka and wife Santha are present; there also I see grapes;  I ask them to get ready as it was getting late; the rooms are very clean

Dream 3 (in July)

I almost forgot; my father is talking and shares…he will not have any problem; everything will be ok…I almost forgot …if I recollect on my own or if any of my nearer people could recall I will give details

Dream 4 (in Aug 2017)

I am with my brother Balaji; I slap him repeatedly and still I am angry with him

Dream 5 (on 29/08/2017)

I am sitting at the edge of a platform; I have not seen that station earlier; my father is on the platform; he gives me a hand to get up from that position; I am without any footwear; he suggests I wear the shoe next to me; the beauty is both the shoes are different—left one design, right another design; travel starts….we talk to each other without verbal transactions; we cross many stations; to me many places seem to be remote which I do not recognize having seen in my current life; I wish to stay in a hotel where I stayed earlier; I do not know/ remember the route to that place; immediately I understand my father’s opinion that I can stay in another place also

Dream 6 (on 30.08.2017 early morning)

Swami Chinmayananda appears and he blesses my younger brother who is the participant in one of the above dream

Note 1:

 in all my dreams, I see/do not see the personalities; in my dreams majority of the conversations are nonverbal; means I know what the other person is telling and vice versa
Note 2:

I learn from the spirit world that after leaving this body, no language is required to communicate as all are in energy wave forms; as thought also is an energy form, communication happens;
I had these kind of dreams when I was in college; that time I was not sure about my future; now I am confident of my present and do not care about the next moment
Note: 3

I will keep recording my dreams regularly
If you have any opinion, you may share

A Chain snatching and Lord Siva


Thirupazhanam Abathsahayeswarar and Periyanayagi Thaayar -haran rajagopal—part 2

Embodiments of Love!

Embodiments of Love!
Those who have read my earlier posting dt 23/4/17, are requested to read the same for the continuity of the subject matter.
We performed the apttu saththal ceremony( silk dresses for the Lord and Lungis for the palanquin bearers)
Also arranged the meals for the priests out of love.
For all the above my sister Athula helped as a great mediator as we are locked in Ahmedabad.
the same day I spoke to one of my close relatives; she suggested that I should not spend Rs.50000+ for the Rishabha Vaganam-( Bull Vehicle); I evaded the subject but I was confused; after all I am an ordinary mortal.
I did not share the details of my conversation with my wife Santha.
Next day our elder daughter left home at 6 30 am for her permanent 1st shift duty.
In 5 minutes wife got a call; she was expressing shock and was agitated.
Santha: “Gayathri’s gold chain has been snatched away by 2 people who came in a speeding 2 wheeler.”
I: “is she safe?”
Santha:” Yes, it was a very smooth snatching; she could not even realise what has happened”
I: “what is the worth of the chain?”
Santha: “More than Rs.50000 when we purchased”

Note:

I do not want to add my opinion; I have given details;
I need to give the updates on 5th June happenings in Mulund to get to the main story

Cause and Effect-Miracle of the Week-Part 2


Embodiments of Love!

The glass was broken with the centre of friction exactly at the middle of the precious picture; one glass has just protruded; just a few inches saved Santha’s stomach getting pierced;
We were disturbed
Next day I wanted to reframe the photo;
Went to Esanpur the next day evening
In the meanwhile my colleague Bhadresh forgot his mobile phone in the office; he left office early and requested me to gather the same and he would take from me when I visited Esanpur for framing the photo;
Another colleague suggested the shop where the framing could be done;
When I reached Esanpur, Bhadresh was already there and he said there were no such shops;
He asked me to follow his scooty in my car; when we reached another site meant for such frame work area, all shops were closed;
It was very congested;
I parked my car in a faraway place and locked
Took pillion riding with Bhadresh and started combing the area; when we were above an over bridge, I located a shop;
We went there; the person said that next day only he could give; I said that the next day was a full moon day(pournamasya) and I wanted to do prayer; he said that he should go over to the warehouse for the glass; after a few discussions, the vendor offered to go with Bhadresh to his warehouse and complete;
He did it
I made the prayer the next day

So nothing is easy

Note: Santha said earlier that you would not go anywhere to do the framing of the picture; but eventually I was made to go out to do the task

Is it a design by GODDESS?

Cause and Effect-Miracle of the Week-Part 1


Embodiments of Love!

I see Life as an experiment and miracle in every aspect
Another example:

On 1st May 2017 Monday Santha, my dear wife asked me, What happened to the Goddess Mahalakshmi Picture?”
I rushed to the prayer cum bed room; on the raf; the picture was safe inside the original pack, folded properly.
Santha ordered this beautiful picture through Amazon online approximately one year back; she wanted to frame the same; as usual procrastination is my habbit; I shelved the idea of framing and Mahalakshmi onto the raft.
On May 1st I was impelled to take action; Santha said that I would not do that by going out into the market and instructed me to take help from office colleagues; obedient to wife I followed the instruction and carried to office;
There were 2 options-1) either laminate 0r 2) frame with Glass
My studio colleagues advised glass frame to preserve the glory of the picture
I gave to a person who was to get it framed;
Everyday I dutifully asked the person; he religiously failed to give back the framed picture stating excuses; on 5th May, Friday 2017, I asked him to return the picture; he called the other one who was to do framing; he rushed with the framed picture, packed perfectly in a shrink, very tight and neat; I brought that picture to our house at Ahmedabad in my car; I placed Mahalakshmi picture on the seat and loved to the imagination that the picture should be oriented properly so that Mahalakshmi could “sit” and come with me
On that day we were planning to go over to Mumbai to attend the “ Subhasweeharanam ceremony”( purification program at the end of one year of death)of Shri Harish’s grandfather.
I gave the parcel to Wife; she placed it in the prayer room; then she asked, “ Do you want to carry to Mumbai or keep here?”
I said, “It is your picture; you decide”
Wife wanted to see; she removed the wrapper; I was in the prayer room.
All of a sudden she was shouting in an alarming voice, “ aiyo, what is this?”
I was shocked and rushed to see what has happened

Miracle?



Embodiments of Love!

Scene 1 

On 29th April night i and wife Santha had a fight (nothing unusual)

Scene 2

On 30th we got up at the same time; she narrated a dream in which a temple priest was giving a big ball of Sandal paste with a request to give it to rajagopal that is I.

Scene 3

On 1st this early morning i had a dream; I and Santha are travelling in a car; i refer the driver as "uncle"; but physically there is no driver but we are travelling fast; even i could not see any car but i perceive a vehicle.

Climax:
On the way car slows down; I tell Santha that uncle is parking the car for us to see the Amabaji; i and Santha get down from the "car"; it is a feeling of getting down; I tell Santha it should be Amabaji; we do not enter the temple but can see clearly; to my surprise it is Lord Karthigeya; it is Palani Dhandapani ; the idol is seen as if the sandal paste has just been removed for a bath of the lord; we leave the temple.
Note:
Krithigai fasting was prescribed for 27th Thursday and 28th Friday ( April) as the thithi started from 27th evening and extended up to 28th evening;
I observed fasting on 27th; on 28th Santha was resting and I skipped lunch box and continued fasting; Santha fought tough.
Another Note: this day (May 1st 2017) is Shasti---6th day from new moon day, very auspicious to Lord Muruga, when i had the vision of Karthigeya in my dream.

Thirupazhanam Abathsahayeswarar and Periyanayagi Thaayar-haran rajagopal

Embodiments of Love!

I visited my ancestral village in Feb 2017;
It is called Thirupazhanam; there is a temple called Sri Abathsahayeswarar temple
The Moolavar( main deity) is called Abathsahayeswarar
His consort is called Periyanayaki THaayaar;

There are a few personal things here;
My ancestors occupied the village and were patrons of the temple; elders have died and remaining have shifted;

The priest said that we belong to Shri Appodhi Adigal clan and we are bound to do service to Siv and he swears that I will go back to Shri Abathsahayeswarar and Amma Periyanayaki Thayar
The temple is slowly undergoing changes: the unwanted weeds and plants have been removed
Lord Nataraja has recently been installed and abhishekam (bathing the Lord) has been done;


I will skip unwanted things; the temple team is planning for Pradhosha urchavam with Swamy Purappaadu( celebreation of Pradhosham by bathing the Lord and Bull and decorating with flowers and taking the Urchava moorthy around the temple)
As such pradhosham is being observed with simple abhishekam’
Since there is no vehicle to carry the Lord there is no travelling of Lord;
I spoke to the priest; Rs 60000 is the estimate for making the bull( rishbham)
I am planning for a big contribution over and above sponsoring a few pradhoshams out of 26 numbers.

Lord Siva is calling me for something.

Pradosh Koottu

Pradosh Koottu

  
Embodiments of Love!

Soak channa dal for 8 hours;then cook in a cooker finely;
Steam cauli flower (1/2 will do); then cut it into pieces;
Cut one simla mirchi into small pieces; also cut 3 to 4 tomatoes finely;
place a kadai ( flat vessel for frying) on the stove; add sesame oil; then mustard and urud dal; after the popping up and reddening of dal add mirchi and tomato pieces and cook with minimal water; while it starts boiling add the steamed and cut cauli flower.
Cook well; 
Smash the cooked channa dal; add this to the above mixture still on the stove; mix thoroughly; add coriander leaves and curry leaves; serve hot

Note: 10th Jan 2017 was Pradhosham day; Santha is attending exam; so I and Gayathri needed something for dinner and onion was to be avoided; Santha used to prepare the best side dishes with or without onion/potato  base; to make a consistency of side dish compatible to Roti/ chapati i was forced to think a base and the above technique worked; since it was created on a pradosh day i named it as " Pradosh Koottu

You can also try and get the blessings of Siva
