Lighter Side of my UpAkarma
From the Bhakti List Archives
• August 3, 2001
Dear Sri Srivaishnavas, First of All I would like to thank All the learned members for providing all the necessary guidance and especially Sri Mani Varadarajan for providing a very good step by step procedure for performing Upakarma. With great enthusiasm adiYen woke up very early in the morning and finished all the shoucha-snanam and enjoyed performing the usual nitya karmamams in the early hours.Keeping the step-by-step procedure printout on the lap, adiYen performed the Upakarma vidhis and then chanted sooktams and Stotrams and finished with Naivedyam and Mangalaarati. After finishing everything beaming with satisfaction and pride when Adiyen stood in front of the mirror , could not control laughter!!! Guess what!!! AdiYen's Pavitram was still sticking on the right ear!!!!! May be Adiyen kept it on the ear while performing Achamanam in the end and totally forgot after that!! Adiyen was sure that the Divya Dampathis along with all the rishis and devathas would also have laughed and laughed looking at this poor Jeevan! But Adiyen's conscience consoled!! If not through real Bhakti, at least through this stupid act Adiyen made the Divya dampathis happy..
