Re: Omens and Hinduism - Shakunam
When I was pregnant with both my children earlier, my mother had a hard time getting tourist visa to visit me in USA. With her visa rejected once, I sent her a second time, and before that, we took her visa papers to Sri Lakshmi Temple and placed it at the altar of Ganesha there. We told the archagar to keep the papers at the foot of Ganesha and to do the archana and then to give us the prasad. The pundit, assuming we had some important paperwork, brought me back 2 fruits in his hand, and offered both to me. When I grabbed it, one fell down and other one (the second one) I successfully grabbed in my hand. To me, it felt unlucky, as in telling my mother will miss getting visa 2nd time also. Exactly as it was, my mother did not get her visa the 2nd time too. Later, a third time she was able to get it. It felt like the fruit that stayed in my hand represented her getting the visa the 3rd time.
Recently I dreamt of #666 of which I have an interesting news - it seems some President of USA, guess it could be Ronald Reagan once moved into a house carrying # 666 and then they had it changed to #668. The day I dreamt of #666 (2 days ago), I became aware of what seems like early stages of OsteoArthiritis of the left knee.
Like this, I have encountered many omens in my life.
