Guru Pushya Yoga
Pushya is a Sanskrit word, meaning "to nourish". The ruler of Pushya is
Saturn or Shani and its deity is Brihaspati or Jupiter, the Guru of wisdom.
When the Pushya Nakshatra falls on Thursday or Sunday, astrologers and
religious minded people consider it as favourable and call it Pushya Amrit
Yoga. This day (Pushya Nakshatra) is an auspicious day to see, take
blessings and remember your Guru or spiritual teacher. It is in this manner
that Pushya has an auspicious link with spiritual and religious matters.
We all know that one of the greatest devotees of Rayaru was Sri
Appanacharya. He brought out the benefits of remembering Rayaru on such a
day or on Pushya Nakshatra.
In his Raghavendra Stotra, Sri Appanacharya says,
"Soma surya parogo cha pushyarkadhi samagame,
Yo anuthamam idham stotramashtothara satham japeth,
Bhootha praetha pisachadhi peeda thasya na jayathe"
What this means is that when there is a lunar or solar eclipse or during
Pushya Star on Sunday or on Thursday, any person reciting the shlokas of
Raghavendra Swamy or remembering him, will not have any kind of trouble. No
ghost, devil or/and any evil will trouble a person who recites the
Raghavendra Stotra 108 times or performs the japa by chanting OM SRI
RAGHAVENDRAYA NAMAHA - 108 times.
So let us all make use of this auspicious day by getting together in front
of Sri Rayara Mruthika Brindavana and chant the famous Sri Rayara Stotra as
many times as possible or if you are unable to do it please chant "OM SRI
RAGHAVENDRAYA NAMAHA" AS Many times as possible and earn the blessings of
Sri Hari Vayu Gurugalu.
