Dear Sri. Raman

The no of Salagrama shilas that you can have is based on the following rule:

If you have one, then it is fine.
Two and three are considered to be inauspicious. Some people think three is ok but according to Late. Sri. U.Ve Melpakkam Narasimhachariar Swami, count of three is also not good.

Count of four is fine. From this point on, the count of shaligramas should be even. i.e 4,6,8,10,12 etc.

If you have 12 Saligramas worshipped in your place, then the place is considered a kshetram.

In your case, please do bring 2 more saligramas and add it for thiruvaradhanam.

As you already have two Saligramas, thiruvaradhanam should not be performed for two of them together.

First, one Aradhanam needs to be performed for one murthy. For the other one, again another aradhanam needs to be done. That means, if you have two Saligramas or three Saligramas, you have to do separate thiruvaradhanams for the two or three Saligramas. If you have 1,4,6,8,... then one aradhanam is suffice for all Saligrama moorthis.

In case if you cannot do thiruvaradhanam for the second Saligrama in detail, you can do lagu Aradhanam for the Second perumal.
