Poojyaya Raghavendraya



Poojyaya Raghavendraya Satya Dharma Ratayacha,
Bhajatam Kalpavrikshaya Namatam Kamadhenave

The worship of Sri Raghavendraswamy, who is the embodiment of Sathya and Dharma (Truth and Righteousness), bestows whatever boon one aspires like Kalpavruksha, the Celestial Tree, and Kamadhenu, the Celestial Cow. Incessant chanting of this hymn is a panacea for all ills and problems in life, especially in this age of tension chanting of
"Om Sri Raghavendraya Namaha," helps immensely.

    भजतां कल्पवृक्षाय नमतां कामधेनवे ॥

    Thank you for the above sloka which I was recalling today and wanted to get a reference that I can cite. I just want to point out (with all due humility) that if one uses Google transliteration tool, the correct Sanskrit text, as given above, can only be produced if we type in English as follows.

    An extra "a" is required in Rataaya and also in vrikshaaya. I have taken the time to point this out on the occasion of prayers to Goddess Saraswathi that we offer this week, since I have come across (sadly) great many mistakes in many websites (I do not mean the above sloka) which have wrong texts in various Indian languages for the original Sanskrit slokas, or stotrams, or suktams. With my humble regards.
