Secrets Revealed - 4 !

HINDUISM

              

             After a long time I am writing this post as I had not got any of the holidays or free time to continue. Today I am explaining you about the topic “Secret behind the solutions”. In everyone’s home they will be facing one or the other problems.  Some people sit & talk each other in their home, some of them fight & some go near swamiji’s or priests asking solution for their problems.

              Usually you may have noticed that for most of the problems, they guide this type of solution. “ Every Saturday you must go to the Anjaneya Temple & light the sesame seeds ( yellu in kannada ) covered with a new cotton cloth that is dipped in any of the good cooking oil and to circumambulate it from 7 to 9 times”. Do you know the secret behind it ? Well, let me explain the solution with a small example.

               A person will have a problem in his life that he is not able to decide what to do & what not to do or not able to take right decisions in every step of his/her life & this causes so many problems in his home. To get immunity from this problem, he meets a priest or swamiji & asks for solution. The priest gives a solution which I have highlighted in the above paragraph. He/She does it for a certain days of time as suggested by priest & gets immunity from his problems. When you observe this solution clearly you will come to know the secret behind it.

              When you light the sesame seeds covered with cotton cloth dipped in any of the good cooking oil, it burns with a big smoke. At that time, you circumambulate it from 7 to 9 times. The smoke you inhale which comes from the sesame seeds clean & heal all the inner parts of your body. It is also proved by scientists that the smoke comes from the sesame seed is very good for health. Hence it is told to circumambulate 7 to 9 times to inhale a certain amount of smoke into your body. This helps you to take right decisions in your life & keep your body healthy.

So don’t neglect the solutions from priests or from any well learned swamiji’s. When you don’t know the reason behind those solutions, try to understand them instead of ignoring.

Secrets Revealed - 3 !

How often do you meditate? Once in a day? Once in a week? Once in a month? or Once in a year? Do you know how much power it has ?

                 

                      The maker of modern India "Swami Vivekananda" comes into our mind as we hear the word Meditation. He may be called as The Lord Of Meditation. One should learn from him, why should we meditate, when to meditate & how to meditate. Everyone knows that, he had meditated of uncountable hours & had gained powers mentally as well as physically. But what about us ? Why can't we ? Are there any timings for meditation ? But how ? All these questions raised in my mind. So I thought of linking meditation in our Hindu rituals ( or pooja ), if any that had been made by our ancestors. Finally succeeded to a certain level in revealing the secrets behind it.

                    

                       Its "SANDHYAVANDANAM" performed three times a day - Morning for expiating the sins committed in the night, afternoon for the sins between, & evening for the sins between afternoon & evening. It is done in the praise of Sun God & Gayatri Devi. The Sandhyavandanam is held to be of primary importance in Hinduism. It is done at aiming to keep oneself mentally & physically pure. One part of Sandhayavandanam teaches about breathing i.e. Pranayama & the other important part teaches about meditation i.e. Gayatri Japa. As though the pranayama has given much importance because of yoga, Gayatri mantra also plays an important role here.

                The Gayatri mantra was discovered by sage Vishwamitra. The Gayatri mantra is found in all the four Vedas. One should chant this mantra at least 108 times ( one mala ) during Sandhyavandanam. This may take nearly half an hour if it is chanted with proper pronunciation. It is done in a disciplined manner such that, sitting in padmasan, closing eyes & chanting gayatri mantra for long time in his mind but not hearing to anyone except him & not talking to anyone in the middle. This is the only technique that resembles meditation.

                         

             

                         But why should we chant mantra, instead of only meditation ? This question would have been raised in your mind by now. No person will sit quite at a unique place for just 5 minutes. He desires to be busy all the time. Just try in your home by sitting for more than 15 minutes by just closing your eyes & doing nothing. It is very difficult to do like that till you control your fickle mind. It needs certain practice which has to be done daily. Hence our ancestors have made such a prayer to make oneself sit quite in a unique place for hours together. This type of meditation is done to keep ones mind in a relaxed position or tension free for sometime so that he will be in a delighted manner all day. But, do you know why rishis have selected the gayatri mantra specifically which goes like this:

"Om bhur bhuvah swaha, Tat savitur varenyam, Bhargo devasya dheemahi, Dhiyo yo na prachodayat"

The literal meaning of this mantra, also called Devamatha, is:

 “Bowing before you heaving Om, the Pranava (the eternal) form,
 I meditate on the Savita (the Sun God) who illuminates the earth,
 the heaven and the world of manes (departed souls). Let that
master brain inspire my intellect”.

                      

                        Because it has the Power. Yes ! The words we pronounce has the power of vibration which links our brain. Various scientific researches have revealed that the Gayatri Mantra rouses the brain. Regular chanting of this mantra generates continuous vibrations in the human brain that keeps the person vigilant and which in turn, lead all his endeavours to guaranteed success. One who chants this mantra with proper pronunciation undergoes positive changes and becomes morally and physically strong enough to overcome all difficulties in life. After knowing all the power of Gayatri mantra, why do you wait. Start today itself & make your future "Bright".

Secrets Revealed - 2 !

HINDUISM

                  Initially I welcome you to the second part of the topic secrets revealed !. The Hindu temple is a sacred place where man and God commune. This is the place where priests conduct poojas, homas etc., Here the priests should be very clean and tidy. The priests put Tilakas, Vibhutis on their body. The ordinary Vaishnavas use white clay called tirumani, found in various parts of country and sold at a very cheap rate in the bazaars. In case of Madhavas, yellowish clay is used. The ordinary Vaishnavas rub the clay in the palm of the left hand with a little water and then with a finger of the right hand or with a strip of metal kept for purpose. This was not done just for an empty show. You can notice that, here I have used the past tense because, the present people do this just for hypocrisy because they do not know why our ancestors had made it so.

                        There are scientific reasons behind it. The holy ash (Vibhuti) is made by burning dried cow dung cakes with ghee, flowers, yogurt and and other ingredients. It symbolizes the purity we attain by burning the bonds of ego, karma and maya to reveal the soul's natural goodness. The Vibhuti (holy ash) kills bacteria when it is mixed with water or when it is dry. It has the power of hotness and can kill any bacteria. It is able to destroy the black energy (Negative energy) created in the atmosphere. But remember, it is not harmful to Human Body in any of the manner. 

                         

                      Use of Holy ash (Vibhuti) is a very good self-help spiritual healing remedy. It can be used routinely to gain positive energy as well as to get relief from distress from departed ancestors and ghosts (demons, devils, negative energies etc.,) Our ancestors had a great insight into the material and spiritual aspects of human life. Hence they considered each and every activity of the man from the time he wakes up till the time he goes to bed. For everything, the rishis of ancient India formulated a healthy and highly effective system, whose execution became customs, practices or rituals in course of time. A balanced life of material and spiritual accomplishments alone will help man enjoy a healthy and peaceful life.

                   So, to lead a balanced life with peaceful, healthy and enjoyment know the secrets or the scientific reasons behind the rituals that our ancestors had made.Your extra knowledge about these articles may be mailed to the following id kvmohansrinivas@gmail.com.

 Do you know why Gayatri Mantra has given much importance in Hindus ? Coming soon in the next post.
