Namaste,

When it comes to chronic ailments, debts or any other major disasters, for a Vaishnava, Sri Lakshmi Narasimhar comes to the mind immediately... Some other people make prayers and pariharas to Lord Hanuman, or to gurujis such as Raghavendra Swamiji. For example, it is said lighting a ghee lamp in front of the picture of Sri Narasimhar and praying "ugram veeram...." 108 times * 11 weeks on consequetive Sundays on Rahu Kala is supposed to bring immediate and great relief from any major calamity.

I know that when thinking of pariharas that can be done to Sri Rama, Sri Sundara Kanda recitation comes to the mind. Most certainly this is an effective parihara, but what when you have done it once or twice already? I wish to know some effective mantra japas that can be made out to Sri Ram, with specific duration for recitation that can bring you great relief from agonies of sorts..

If you or anyone you know has benefited from such pariharas to Sri Ramachandra, please let me know.

Thanks,

Viraja
