Karandhama

Suvarcha ever intent on bringing about the welfare of the people, being devoted to the Brahmanas, speaking the truth, practising purity and restraining his senses and thoughts. And the subjects were well pleased with that high-minded one constant in virtue.

But he being constantly engaged in virtuous deeds, his treasures and vehicles became greatly reduced. And on his treasury having become depleted, the feudatory princes swarming round him began to give him trouble. Being thus oppressed by many foes while his treasury, horses and vehicles were impoverished, the king underwent great tribulation along with his retainers and the denizens of his capital.

Although his power waned greatly, yet the foes could not slay the king, for his power, O Yudhishthira, was established in righteousness. And when he had reached the extreme of misery along with the citizens, he blew his hand (with his mouth), and from that there appeared a supply of forces. And then he vanquished all the kings living along the borders of his dominions. And from this circumstance O king, he hath been celebrated as Karandhama.

Shad Shankhas

Six Divine Auspicious Shankhas known as Shad Shankhas.

The Vamavarti and Dakshinavarti are the well known ones. The other four are

They are as follows:

Gaumukhi Sankha
Gaumukhi means face of cow. It is considered very sacred. Keeping this sankha in the temple or puja place gives all the benefits (punya) of keeping a cow. It helps in bringing peace, harmony and happiness. Scientifically known as helmet conch.

Ganesha Sankha
Ganesh sankh represents Lord Ganesha and is worshipped to remove obstacles, for learning, for success in all undertakings, to get good luck and prosperity to family. It is considered a very auspicious item for protection from evil effects.

Pearl Sankha
Pearl Conch or Moti Sankh, our favorite, is very rare and it is found in the region where pearl is found. Keeping it in the house is considered to be auspicious. It removes any ominous effects of the moon and gives peace of mind. It has the luster of a pearl and is generally round and conical in shape. Moti conch/sankha is used to make the beautiful New Gold jewelry that we managed to bring to South Africa. Scientifically this conch is known as Trochus and was recently added to the list of banned conches. However, we looked in every shop in Jagannatha Puri and purchased almost every single conch jewelry item! Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity to adorn yourself with this amazing jewelry which not only is gorgeous, but beneficial to the health, heart and mind.

Kauri Sankha
Kauri Sankha: Since ancient times the possession of Kauris is considered to bring wealth, prosperity and love. Due to this Kauri Sankha is part of the marriage attire of the brides. Interestingly enough, it is normally kept it in the cash box for financial prosperity and to protect the owner from a financial debacles.
