SatGuru Shree Mata Amritanandamayi Devi popularly known as “Amma” has been consoling and blessing millions and millions of people all over the world for the past 35 years. With compassion, Amma, through her divine vision, could realize that most of the problems of the people commonly arise because of the unfavourable positions of Saturn, Mars and Raaghu in their horoscopes. What Amma has realized, was found to be true by our great Rishis and Sages. They have suggested some formalities and procedures (Parihara Poojas) as a part of solution for these problems. Nowadays, only a very few people do these Parihara Poojas with trust. Moreover many people are not blessed with the opportunity of participating in these Parihara Poojas directly. What could be done in this regard?
Our beloved Amma has the answer. Amma wishes all the human beings to live in peace. She wants her children to lead a pleasant life. This noble thought of Amma has given birth to Brahmasthanam Temple, its Pooja formalities and Parihara Poojas. Having witnessed that these Parihara Poojas are highly fruitful, Amma has established Bramasthanam Temples all over the World and she herself has offered life (breathing life into the Deity – Prana Pratishtha) to the Moorthies(Dieties) of these temples. The idols of all these Brahmasthanam Temples have a unique feature. On four sides of a Lingam, Devi, Ganesha, Subramaniya in the form of a snake and Shiva could be seen. This reflects the truth that though the forms differ, God is one.
With the guidance of Amma, the Pooja procedures of these Brahmasthanam Temples are designed in such a way that they will reduce or eliminate the negative effects of our wrong deeds during our previous births. These poojas have been performed by the Ashramites throughout the year. Irrespective of the cast, religious and other differences, all can participate in these Poojas. These poojas if done with sincerity along with the divine and graceful blessings of Amma, are sure to bring good fortune to us.
