Gurunathar’s Divine Message Moolam Pooja 23-07-2010
I shall give a reply to the question asked: “Why are functions not held in the month of Aadi”? Please understand that the month of Aadi is not a bad one. According to tradition all of you must refrain from getting too wrapped up with your own activities and concentrate on worshiping Devi or Ambal. Aadi gives happiness. For example, people should not hold their auspicious functions like weddings or house warming and instead focus on worshiping Amma. This will gladden her heart. When you make Ambal happy everything will turn out to be okay for you. I see there is a festival you celebrate called “Aadi Perakku” to indicate this.
So Aadi gives you happiness and will give ‘Aandal’ (the Divine Mother) happiness. You must all enjoy this month of worship! By ‘Aandal’ I do not refer to any particular Goddess but to the One who rules the Universe. So if you mean to follow the practice of gaining the blessings of the Divine with all the resulting happiness make it a point to worship Her with some particular prayer on Sundays, Tuesdays and Fridays. You will certainly reap the benefits.
