Dear Swamin,

I have clarification to seek as below:

Is there any reason as to why we should not be in anjali mudra when Garuda
is seen flying above us.  These days, it is very difficult to see Him and
hence the urge to become Anjalibaddha when He flies above us.


Also, His cousin brothers get much fan following during Naga panchami, I
just dont understand why Garuda panchami has not been celebrated by all.
This is really sad and hard to digest.

Likewise, Garuda purana, which is the one of the most oft quoted puranas by
Sri Madhwaacharya in his works has been only read by the general community
when someone expires in the household.  But like Vishnupurana, this purana
is full with tattva and led the reader  to vairagya.  In that context,
Garuda purana is one of the major puranas and stands among Vishnupurana,
Srimadbhagavatha & bhagavadgita with full of vedantha.

I read somewhere that Vishnu Himself requests Garuda to become his vahana
soon after Garuda win over Indra in a fraction.  Although this is as per
purana, this only strengthens veda calling Garuda as valorous.

Sukumar
