Folks -:-)
Some quick thoughts:
(1) The number of namams is twelve (dva-dasa) corresponding to the
Lord's names we recite in "achamanam". This is what I learnt and not eleven as
someone wrote. (Apologies, I am new to the group and slowly i get to know th
names).
(2) An interesting fact for some may be that during times of grief,only
the Thiruman is worn without the Sri Churanam.
PS:
Who am I: I am a moderate Vaishnava wishing to learn more about the
philosophical aspects of all religions, particularly our sect.
