Ekaadashi

Today is a very auspicious day in the Hindu Calender and is observed as Aja Ekaadashi. Devotees perform special worship to  our Supreme Lord Shree Mahaa Vishnu and fast on this day. Prisiding Deity of Ekaadashi day is Dharmaa (Righteousness).

It was joy listening to the seventh day of the divine discourse on Shree Raama by respected Morari Bapujee at Shree Krishna Mutt in Udipi, Karnatakaa. As usual he explained the life history of Lord Shree Raam. He also explained aspects of Lord Shree Krishna.  

Shree Bapuji usually uses Goswami Thulasidas's Shree Raam Charith Maanas as reference. I came to know of this sacred work by hearing my beloved mother's chanting of verses from Shree Raam Charith Maanas  many years ago.

My beloved parents 

I had always thought that Goswami Thulasidas's Raam Charith Maanas was only about Lord Shree Raam. From today's discourse, I came to know some thing new. Bapuji's discourses include verses from Raam Charith Maanas. These verses are displayed on the TV screen. Today I found that the displayed verses contained Lord Shree Krishna's aspects also as you can see in the TV Screen shot shown below:

I think that Raam Charith Maanas probably contains info on Lord Shree Krishna too.

Lord Shree Mahaa Vishnu
