Why do we do pradakshina (circumambulate) ?
08/02/2010 16:29:15  

We cannot draw a circle without a center point. The Lord is the center, source and essence of our lives. Recognizing Him as the focal point in our lives, we go about doing our daily chores. This is the significance of pradakshina.


Also every point on the circumference of a circle is equidistant from the center. This means that wherever or whoever we may be, we are equally close to the Lord. His grace flows towards us without partiality.

atma centric
WHERE SEMITIC RELIGIONS LIVE A "heaven CENTRIC LIFE",
There HAINDAVA LIVE "ATMA CENTRIC LIFE STYLE".at the begining we see our atma externally ,so we go around LORD ,when one grows spiritually ,finds the LORD within and go around oneself i.e.self pradikshina.Whatever be HAINDAVA LIVES IN SPIRITUALITY TO ATTAIN SELF REALISATION.or REALISATION OF LORD.ON THE REALISATION ONE CAN CREATE THOUSANDS OF HEAVEN.HENCE HAINDAVA'S AIM IS MOKSHA NOT THE HEAVEN.MOKSHA RAISES ONE TO THE QUALITY OF LORD.
"The debt which the world owes to our motherland is immense. Taking country after country, there is not one race on earth to which the world owes so much as to the patient Hindu, the mild Hindu."

Swami Vivekananda
