    Prayer Rules?

    Is it okay to pray between 12 PM - 5 PM or after 9 PM? I know temples are closed during these times, so I was wondering. I didn't have any other option but to pray until after 9 PM because of how late I got home. I thought it would be better to pray late than to not pray at all. If not, can you please explain why?

    Could you guide me on how to fast for Mahashivratri

    Hello lovely people! I’d like some help with regard to fasting for Mahashivratri. Last year was the fast time I did it for mental peace. And I plan to do it this year too. However, 1) I am travelling 2) not sure if there are rules and a way of doing this. Last year I started off by bathing and then drinking some water infront of god. Didn’t have any rice, salt. Survived on water and fruits. So if you can guide me how I can go about this...

    Creating a problems database for Sanatana Dharma

    So I have a question and thought maybe this would be the right place to ask. I’ve been doing a research study of major problems people have in the practice of Sanatan Dharma, whether this is integrating Dharmic principles in daily life on a more consistent basis , philosophical understandings or even ideas of about wealth accumulation. It could be issues with puja or issue with practicing karma yoga at work. What problems have you encountered with your practice and staying afloat? What solutions are your currently using to...

    Contradiction?

    Edit 2: I have received my answer, I didn't fully know what Lakshmi represented So recently this contradiction has come into my view. So most (if not all) gods preach that you should detach from wealth and that wealth doesn't matter. But then you see that Vishnu is literally married to Lakshmi... Then you see that most gods are adorned in at least some jewels in most depictions (but let's ignore this point since it might be artwork symbolism). Then you remember that when Lakshmi got cursed and disappeared...

    Question about Gayatri Mantra : Varenyam Vs Vidvamahe

    Jai Siya Ram I know that there are many types of Gayatri Mantra for various Gods. And that they generally follow this structure: Om <God name 1> Vidvamahe <God name 2> Dhimahi <God name 3> Prachodayat Also I'm familiar with the Savitur Gayatri: Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi Dhiyo yo nah Prachodayat My question is what is the difference between 'Vidvamahe' and 'Varenyam'? What are the meaning of these words, and also 'dhimahi ', and 'prachodayat '? Thanks in advance

    How to do naap jaap?

    I am sorry if this is a stupid question. I am heavily inspired by Premananda Maharajji and he always talks about naam jaap. I am a Hanuman and Shri Raam bhakt. I have started chanting “Jay Shri Ram” mentally or verbally. But I am scared I am doing it wrong. Is there a specific way to do naam jaap? Can I do it even after consuming non-veg?

    Question on Ganesha chants

    Hey everyone, I’m an 18-year-old male Westerner who has been into Dharma for a little while now. I’ve been stuck in a pretty bad situation for quite some time—feeling lost in life, not respected, frequently disrespected, and not really liked by anyone. I’m quite lonely and struggle with a severe lack of confidence. Since I’ll be on my own soon, I’ve been wondering if I could ask Ganesha for some help. Could I chant the Vakratunda Mahakaya mantra and Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha for success and positive change in...
