Dear Yamini Suresh :
After I sent you the note on Sumangali PrArthanai
,
I came across the note on the subject posted by me
five years ago .
It talks about Pooja to Nithya Sumanglais and MahA
Sumangails
and those Sumangalis , who passed away and seeking
their
anugraham prior to an auspicious function
.
This is purely a loukeeka ceremony with no
manthrams .
MahA Lakshmi Pooja with MahA Lakshmi
AshtOttharam
and Sahasra Naamam can be doen by an elder
Sumangali
as a part of the Sumangali PrArTanA
.
I would suggest the recitation of SrI
Sthuthi , Sri GuNa Rathna
Kosam , which is a salutation by Swamy ParAsara
Bhattar
on Sri RanganAyaki ( Text and Meanings available at
http://www.malolan.net) ,
SrI Sthavam by Swamy KurEsar ( www.sadagopan.org)and Swamy AlawanthAr's
ChatusslOki . Those will enrich the occasion
.
Songs on MahA Lakshmi can also be added as a part
of the occasion .
It is afterall a prayer to the Most Merciful MahA
Lakshmi ,
the Nithya and MahA Sumangali .
