Dear Smt Raji Sridhar By definition, PERUMAL is infinitely merciful. HE is not given to pleasure or displeasure. HE has no expectations. So please rest assured PERUMAL is not going to chase you down and punish you. However, it is important to ask would we do that to 2 month old baby or 13 day old baby. We should care for PERUMAL like we would a new born or very old mother. The baby does not care nor does the old mother. We derive pleasure doing so. Same here. PERUMAL by HIS own words is very next to you as a bagawatha for thinking along these lines. I am not a seer or vedic personality...just another slave of PERUMAL living a working life. These are my personal opinions. Please do consult Acharyan to guide you properly. --- RAJI SRIDHAR <sridharaji@xxxx> wrote: > Pranams > > > Recently there was a discussion about Saligrama > Aradhanai.
