Dear friends,

Re: stOtrA-s to be recited "when getting up" please note that our
AndAl-pirAtti too has offered us help in her 'tiruppAvai'.

The practical use of "tiruppAvai" at home is that it is an extremely
handy litany for the SriVaishnavite daily "tiruvAdhAranai" -- the
offer of daily worship to the domestic deity.

(1) When one arises from bed in the morning one chants
the 1st & 29th verses of the "tiruppAvai".

(2) Before throwing opening the "doors" of one's
puja-room one should recite Stanza#22..."anganmAlat-
arasar" and then chant Stanza#16 "nAyakanAy ninra..".
After that the doors of the puja-room or closet can be
opened.

(3)Then the householder will "fan" the deity gently,
set right the divine bed-chamber (a sort of "making up
the bed"), and then taking a leaf of basil ("tulasi")
and placing it as if it were a virtual throne, the
householder will mentally request the Deity to take
his Seat or Throne upon it... At which point he will
chant Stanza#23 "mAri-malai-muzhanjil...".

(4) When the Lord is thus seated the householder will
chant Stanza#24, the 'mangalAsAsanam' of
"anru-ivullagam aLandAy....".

(5) When the householder offers "food" for the Lord,
he will chant Stanza#27 ..."koodArai-vellUm..."

(6)Finally during the "sAtrumorai" at home, the
householder will again sing Stanza29 and 30.

Regards,
dAsan,
Sudarshan
