#NavaGrahas🙏🙏🙏
are not mere planets in the solar system. They are Devatas with a divine background. If only one can go through the meaning of slokas in Navagraha stotra, one can understand the divinity behind them. ++
One should not ignore worshipping Navagrahas. They should also be worshipped along with other Parivara DEvatas like Ganapati-Subramanya, always with proper anusandhana/Taratamya... #BharatiRamanaMukhyaPraanaAntargatha-#HariSarvottama;
A planet or a Graha is a celestial body that has substantial influence on the living beings on earth. Nava Grahas play an important role in human life. Navagrahas are the pivot around which the concept of astrology rotates. +++

Dhanyavad to @tattvavadaelib for bringing out this sacred stotra in 9 languages with meaning in English useful for novice understanding.
As mentioned earlier the Credit should go to Sri Suvidyendra Theertharu for rendering translation (in Kannada) of this divine stotra when He was Pontiff of Mantralaya Sri Raghavendra Swamy Matha, based on which subsequently English versions have come into picture based on it.
#Durithaapahara Stothram also known as Paapa Vimochana #Stothram composed by Saint Sri #Vijayeendra#Theertharu is focused at common man, an eye opener for those who are ignoring/deviating from the subtle elements of #saAdhana maarga;+
