Dear Sri Eswaran :

Your dedication and devotion to SaaLagrama AarAdhanam is
commendable .

The thought behind Carrying the Saalagrama Moorthy by
Train instead of by air is really thoughtful . Please continue with
uninterrupted AarAdhanam for SaaLarAma Moorthy , which is
the most easy one to do. Great rigors are needed . The AaarAdhanam
is described in Sadagopan.org  under the Saalagramam link. Laghu
AarAdhanam is equally fine . Kaachi PeriyavAL used to say : Perform
Thirumanjanam with one spoon of Milk and offer fruits or other naivEdhyam .
BhagavAn in this form is most forgiving of all apachArams . He never loses
Saandidhyam .

You can transport the Moorthy in a special wodden box or Silver box
and place silk Vasthram under the Moorthy . If you happen to go to
Ahobila Matam and meet the Jeeyar , please recieve Phala ManthrAkshathai
and request  him to have hastha sparsam and bless your AarAdhanam .
Pleae place the Phala ManthrAkshathai around the Moorthy . The experts
in Ahobila Matam would examine the Saalagramam and let you know whether
it is Sudarsana Moortham or KrishNa or Narasimha or others .

PanchAyathana Pooja is inappropriate for SaaLagrama AarAdhanam.
VishNu(Sriman NaarAyaNa )  AarAdhanam has to be done .

Regarding dates for transport from Chennai to Bombay by train ,
You can start outside Raahu Kaalam on these  two auspicious days :

1) Panguni 20 /April 3 (Monday) , Panchami , RohiNi , Mithunam

2) SravaNa (VishNu Nakshathra) dinams are good : March25;
    It is also EkAdasi day .

3) April 6: Sri Rama Navami Dinam is good.

4. PourNami dinam is good: April 13 .

5. Swaathi dinam is auspicious for Naraimha Moorthams : March 18

6. Panguni Utthiram dinam is auspicious: April 11.

Hope this helps ,
V.Sadagopan
