Dear Sri Chari : I hope you do not mind the following comments . I do not think that Sriman Govindharajan is suggesting that we recite according to one's star . He is saying that on these Nakshthram days , we should recite the sthuthis pertinent to Bahgavaans at dhivya dEsam : Revathy for Lord Ranganathan related SthOthrams(Bhagavath DhyAana SopAnam) SravaNam for Lord SrinivAsan (Daya Sathakam) Pooram day fro Godha Sthuthi Utthiram for Sri Devi etc (Sri Sthuthi ). Reciting all of Swamy Desika SthOthrams on His Thirunakshathram day at Thiruvaheendhrapuram or on one's AchArya Thirunakshathram days as done on Dec 10 at Bangalore during the 79th Thirunakshathram of Srimath Azhagiya Singar by the SthOthra Paada GhOshti is according to sampradhAyam . KaamyArtham related references and taboos are for PrapannAs and ParamaikAnthis . There are a lot of AasthikAs , who do not come under the category . Hence I think that a blank taboos will not be appropriate. These sthOthrams are beautiful in every way including their excellence as poems in different Metres , artha Gouravam , Manthra sakthi and abode for VaishNavite doctrines . The meanings of number of these sthOthrams are at : http://www.sadagopan.org It is always good to understand the meanings of AchArya Sri Sookthis and then recite them . We are creating 108 e-books this year ( the Year Srimath Azhagiya Singar's Thirunakshathram ) that will include many of the Sri Sookthis of Swamy Desikan including SthOthrams etc . DaasOham , V.
