Which way does the Kamakshi Devi temple face? Is it proper vastu? --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, benjaminccollins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have some recordings of Lalith Sahasranam which I will post on www.puja.net so anyone who wants them can download for free. I think I also have a transliteration and translation which I will also post in case you are interested. The links will be towards the bottom of the main page. Interestingly enough the site where Agastya-rishi was given this knowledge by Varaha is the Varadaraja Temple in Kanchipuram southeast of Madras. The temple is literally across the street from the place where my puja.net yagya group has our monthly yagyas. Inside the temple walls is the 2nd largest Vishnu temple in all of India. The temple has a large water pond in the middle of which is a special temple for a form of Vishnu that is kept in a special sealed box under the water and only taken out for pujas every 30 years! As an aside all of the temples in Kanchipuram face the main temple in the area, the Kamakshi Devi temple. So there are many many south facing temples. (so much for vastu!) Regards, Ben Yahoo!

It faces east, which is traditional, but all the others face it so only 25% of them are proper. The largest Vishnu temple in India is in Srirangam and it faces south because it is oriented toward SriLanka. The temple is Vishnu lying down watching for Vibishina, Ravana's brother from the Ramayana story who was a big devotee. I guess my point is that proper vastu may be something of an over simplification at times. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, benjaminccollins [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I have some recordings of Lalith Sahasranam which I will post on www.puja.net so anyone who wants them can download for free.
