Dear BhAgavatAs,

As a sophomore to this, I have some doubts.

It has become a practice to perform Saranagathi at a very early 
age. 

It has also become a practice for egroup SriVaishnavas to take 
every opportunity to write that there is no need for us to do 
pradhakshiNams for Navagraham. The reason they say is, having 
surrendered to HIM there is no need to fear nor favour demigods.

If this being the case, even those who espouse and claim to have 
utmost maha Visvasam in HIM rely on horoscope compatibility for 
fixing the marriage (or for that matter anything risky) of their 
kith and kin. It is very rare to see anybody giving a ChevvAi 
dOsham bride to a non-ChevvAi dOsham groom (or vice versa). Doesnt 
this show the fear for anya dEvatAs? If they TRULY believe in HIM,
why should these things be taken into consideration.

I know Im wrong somewhere but where?

Regards
dAsan
R.SoundararAjan
