Laddu Prasadam Experience with Devotee

S.V. Temple, Cary, NC

At the S.V.Temple, a dedicated team prepares approximately 500 Laddu's every week. My wife (Anupama) is fortunate to be part of this team.On a Shiny morning, a Devotee has approached to LADDU team asked as mentioned below.

Devotee: Will this Laddu taste same as Tirupati Laddu?

Volunteer: Lord Venkateswara swamy prasadam is same at any place.

Devotee: Will you make the Laddu same size of Tirupati Laddu?

Volunteer: Yes we can make it for you. Please purchase 4 Packets (each packet contains 2 small ones) of Laddu's.

Devotee: Purchased 4 Packets of Laddu's and handovered to Volunteer.

Volunteer: Prepared a Laddu which is as big as a Tirupati Laddu.

Devotee: Thanks for this Laddu. I would like to Keep it Day or 2 and disturbute to all my family members.

The Devotee was going home with the Happiest face with flying colors in the heart. One could easily see brightness there.

We were amazed to see the devotee making a connection to S.V. Temple, Cary, NC Laddu to Tirupati Laddu (TTD). The prespective of the devotee is simply super and learned something new to see the things.

This reminds me Annamaya Charya Kirtana

ఎంత మాత్రమున ఎవ్వరు తలచిన, అంతమాత్రమే నీవు
అంతరాంతరములెంచి చూడ, పిండంతే నిప్పటి అన్నట్లు ||                                                                                   Oh Lord! Your devotees visualise You in many ways. They want to see You in different forms and ways. However, the deeper one’s heart envisions You, the more shallower is Your grace felt!

In the year 2020, Karthika Somavaram has come dt on 16-Nov-2020.We have planned to visit "Trikoteswara Swami Temple, Kotappakonda"on this Day.

After Darshanam, exploring the Temple and capturing the pictures to feel good. Was trying to capture the Sun and Temple Rajagopuram in one picture. Later part of the day, when I observed these images, Amazing Feeling

Saw the Sunrays falling Directly on Siva Lingam

Saw the Sunrays falling near to Rajagopuram

After seeing these pictures multiple times, Felt highest energy within me.Happy tears started flowing within me and outside as well. Breath has become very silent for few minutes. Became Speechless and felt Blissful State (పరమానందమైన, పరమసుఖమైన)

After discussing, Understood this experience from "Aditya Hudrayam"

Esha brahmaa cha vishnuscha shivah skandah prajaapatih

Mahendro dhanadah kaalo yamassomo hyappam patih

He is pervading in all viz., Brahma (the creator), Visnu (the Sustainer), Shiva (the destroyer), Skanda (the son of Siva), Prajapati (progenitor of human race), the mighty Indra (lord of senses), Kubera (the God of prosperity), Kala (eternal time), Yama (the Lord of death), Soma (the moon god that nourishes), and Varuna (God of rain).

ఏష బ్రహ్మా చ విష్ణశ్చ శివః స్కందః ప్రజాపతిః !

మహేంద్రో ధనదః కాలో యమః సోమో హ్యపాం పతిః !!

బ్రహ్మ విష్ణువు, శివుడు, క్మారస్వామి, ప్రజాపతి, దేవేంద్రుడు, కుబేరుడు, కాలస్వరూపుడు, యముడు, చంద్రుడు, వరుణుడు

Divine Experience at Hanuman Sannidhi

S.V.Temple, Cary, NC,Tuesday 7:30PM, EST

I have a habit of witnessing 'RamaRaksha Stotram and Hanuman Chalisa' at Hanuman Sannidhi every Tuesday. I Meditate and Distribute Prasadam.

One Tuesday, I was late to temple and decided to go Siva temple for Darshanam before I could go to Hanuman Sannidhi. While washing my legs at Siva Temple, I was able to hear Harathi Bell at Hanuman Sannidhi. Immediately thought provoken to me If I go to Hanuman Sannidhi, I will get an opportunity to Volunteer/Seva for Prasadam Disturbution.

I ran to Hanuman Sannidhi and collected Prasadam from the priest and disturbuted to the devotees. Once I was done with this, went to the Archaka swamy to seek the Blessings.

"To my Surprise, Priest took the Garland from Hanuman and gave it to me along with his Blessings". I was bursting with Happy tears and felt ecstatic

That point of time, I could recollect the below message.

Lord Hanuman is known as an incarnation of Lord Shiva OR Rudra Avatar. After Vishnu agreed to be born as a man to defeat Ravana, Brahma felt that he would need help, so he asked Shiva to take on an avatar as well. He is one of the central characters in Ramayana and whose immense devotion for Lord Rama is unmatched. He was the chief aid to Lord Rama in the war against demon king Ravana.

Rudrabhishekam Meditation at Heart Chakra

 S.V.Temple, Cary, NC, Monday 7:00PM, EST

I have a habit of witnessing 'Rudrabhishekam' every Monday at Siva Sannidhi. I meditated while performing Sri Rudrabhishekam in Siva Temple and obtained beautiful experiences

@7:10PM - In Meditation, to my surprise saw Siva Abhishekam happening with in me at Heart Chakra (Heart Chakra described as Bridge between the Mind, Body, and Spirit). I was able to see what Archaka Swamy was performing to Siva (outside).

I was unable to understand this experience and was thinking about it for a week. Next Sunday, one spiritual person came to the Temple, explaning the same experience how Rudrabhishekam happens at Heart Chakra while doing Rudram along with Abhishekam

Felt very good by knowing this experience and I was able to correalate what happened to me Last Monday

Attained lot of happiness after knowing this and felt so good, Amazing experience.

After knowing this knowledge, I could experience the same multiple times and also felt Heart Chakra (Heart) has become so light weight and flying like a Honey bee

Thanks to Supreme GOD, who is making me to travel in this beautiful path and which is creating Vital energy with in me

I have a habit of witnessing "Ekantha Seva/Sayanostavam" at Sri Varu Sannidhi at 7:40PM and obtained many experiences every time. I would like to share few wonderful moments.

@7:40PM - Srivaru Sannidhi curtain was closed for Ekantha Seva and I was Meditating, obtained wonderful experience.

"A Parrot flew to Srivaru temple and Sat on the Srivaru Kalyana Makathoranam".

I was unable to understand this experience and was thinking about it on my way back home, was checking my phone once I returned. To my surprise, one of my friends forwarded exactly same image

Got the Clarity, This is not Srivaru Makarathornam and it's Garland Placed on GODA Devi shoulders and Parrot has flew on that

Here is the image forwarded by my friend. Thanks to him for sharing this picture in the right time with right context. I am dedicating this experience to him.

Amazing Experience !!! Blissfulness,Joyfulness and didn't feel like speaking to anyone. I was silent for more than One hour with this experience.

Thanks to GODA Devi (Andal Ammavaru) for giving me this kind of experience and showering blessing to us.
