About
Sreshtachara Sabha
Bharatham ( India ) is a land of traditions with a great cultural heritage. The magnanimous beauty of this land made our seers to call it as the punnybhoomiï of the whole world.
Nevertheless, because of the advance of foreign forces, some of the traditions and its much cherished dharmic senses were forced to take a back seat in the contemporary society.
If we look back two to three generations, we see that we had a tradition of mantra japam / Sadhana in our families. This was not done by Sanyasis, but by our family members or in other words, the Grihasta. Our forefathers lived a peaceful life due to their Sadhana and Thapass.
Apparently we lost our culture of japam or sadhana of any kind.Every family has a kula devatha (Family godess), In kerala for 95% of the families it is Bhadra Kali. Kula devathas protect the entire family from hardship and challenges. But now, many of us do not know about our Kula Devatha. Of the few who know, many do not know why and how to worship our Kula Devatha.Ganapathy Homa and Bhagavathy Seva used to be performed in every house for overall benefit of all family members, and it was performed by head of the family, irrespective of caste or creed and not someone from the outside.Over the course of years, due to influence of western thoughts, we lost this culture and are forced to hire someone to perform Pujas and other rituals for us. We let our basic culture go from our hands.
SADHANA
Sadhana and Sadhana are two very valuable things in life. What is Sadhana? Who is the practitioner?
KULA DEVATHA
The concept of Kuladevata has always been active in India.
PITHRU THARPANAM
As per our traditions, we have the ancestral spirit within us, which is now acknowledged by even the modern medicine.
