Namaskaaram to everyone in the group.Just joined today. We have a 
saligramam at home wherein as per the knowledge received from elders 
the pooja is being performed since the past 150 years. After my 
grandfather this was being done by my father and was later 
transferred to my Periappa who had retired. The Pooja was continued 
by my Periappa. Unfortunately my father expired in 1992. A week back, 
I lost my Periappa too. After all karma had been done by my goodself 
(as my periappa has no issues) and house was sanctified by 
Punyakalam, my Periappa's friend to whom he hands over the saligramam 
(when he occassionally goes out) has taken charge of the Pooja 
temporarily. This is because I live in Mumbai and my Periappa in 
Chennai.

As this Pooja has been in my family for generations , I intend 
continuing it after I get the saligramam from Chennai. I would 
appreciate if learned people could reply to the following questions:

1. Is there any time / day to be seen for getting the saligramam from 
Chennai to Mumbai. I need to do this by train as I do not want to 
travel by flight as the Lord will have to be shown to everyone from 
security to customs and passed thro X-ray etc.. Of course train 
travel will result in non-perormance of Pooja ne day for which 
Prayaschithartham will have to be done later.

2. As I would need time to learn the process of performing saligramam 
pooja, is the Laghu Bhagvad aradhanakram the best guide to start with.

3. Once I get the saligramam , maybe I will pose the next question as 
to its identification.

4. Is the book on Panchyaatana Pooja a good one for saligramam 
worship?

I shall appreciate everyones comments and responses

Thanking everyone in advance and expecting advise at the earliest.

Eswaran
