Jai Srimannarayana! I have a question which has been left unanswered by many religious speakers whom I have asked about conducting the Kalyanam of Radha with Lord Krishna. Is Radha Krishna Kalyanm celebrated?

NO. IT IS NOT. ACCORDING TO ORIGINAL SRIMAD BHAGAVATHAM, COMPOSED BY THE GREAT SAGE VEDA VYASA, THERE IS NO CHARACTER CALLED AS "RADHA" AT ALL. THE MENTION OF RADHA IS AVAILABLE IN RAJASA PURANA LIKE 'BRAHMA VAIVARTHA PURANAM'. WE CAN

We are from Columbus,OH. We came to know that You are gracing the Hindu temple in Cincinnati and performing the Srinivasa Kalyanam. We are very much interested to participate but we dont know whether we can participate because my husband’s father expired in Nov,2005. We were told last year not to observe any festivals or perform any special poojas like Satyanarayana Vratha for a year. Does this hold good for Kalyanam too? Even if we cant perform the pooja, can we atleast watch it and accept Your Blessings? Some told us not to accept “Satari” at the temple and some told there are no such restrictions. We dont know what to follow and what not to follow. We humbly request You to kindly enlighten us. Why the restrictions till one year after one’s father died? As a vishnavite, when i can enter into temple and eligible to perform pooja ? Please forgive me if i asked an irrilevant question?

WE ARE HAPPY FOR YOUR INTEREST. ACCORDING TO VAISHNAVA SAMPRADAYAM, AFTER 13 DAYS OF THE CEREMONY, IT IS PERFORMED "PARAMAPADA UTSAVAM". IT THAT IS DONE THAT DEPARTED SOUL, CHILDREN OF THE DEPARTED SOUL, CAN GO TO TEMPLES AND DO ALL

Please enlighten us in this contest what to do and what not do, at the time of either birth or death in a family. please let us know why these are done what they signify.

WHEN THERE IS BIRTH OR DEATH IN A FAMILY, THE WHOLE FAMILY GETS "A:SOUCHAM" WHICH MEANS IT GETS POLLUTED. THIS POLLUTION CONTINUES FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS OR SO. IT MAY CHANGE IN SOME CASES. WE DO NOT WANT TO GO

My another question is about the chicken pox which is called as ammavaru,pongu,atlamu in our andhra pradesh.Many people say that this will come to a person if he or she liked by durga Matha is it correct ,Is anything is mentioned about it in vedas.

NO. IT IS A HEALTH HAZARD. NOT ANY GODLY IMPACT. SO TAKING GOOD CARE AND USING PROPER MEDICINE, WILL TAKE CARE. NO NEED TO SATISFY ANY GOD OR GODDESS BY UNWANTED OFFERINGS LIKE MEAT ETC.,

My mother showed my jathakam to a person who is well known in jathakams he told that The Lord Shani will affect me for two years and he told some procedures must be done to reduce the effect of Shani by doing shani japas in the temple.Since i had taken vaisnava diksha from gaudiya vaishnavism order My mind is telling to do japa of hare krishna mantra and not bother about Lord shani japas.

YOUR IDEA IS GREAT. YOU NEED NOT DEPEND UPON DUMMY THINGS. BE FIRM ON GOD. AND DO PUJA TO LORD VISHNU IN KURMA FORM. -chinnajeeyar-
