  • Sama Veda Upakarma Prayoga for the Year 2020
    Sama Veda Upakarma Prayoga for the year 2020 (22 August 2020) (Compiled by P.R.Ramachander) Gayatri Japam 2020 date is August 4. And check out Gayatri Japam Mantras here for 2020.. In the case of Sama Veda, The upa Karma prayogam is very extensive and differs very much from the Upakarma prayoga of Rig and Yajur Vedis.They always do it in Hastha Nakshtra of the Kanya Masa. It essentially consists of ten steps in the following order 1.Panchagavya sammelanam 2.Snana Mahasankalpam 3.Brahmayagnam 4.Punyaham 5.Rishipooja(Uthsarjan Karma) 6.Deva,rishi, Pithru Tharpanam (264+12) 7.Ghata Poojai 8.Yagnopaveethadhaaranam 9.Vedarambam 10.Kankanadharanam Naturally these have to be done with the instruction of a Guru but in modern times when people are scattered all over the world and also because well learned Sama Vedi Purohithas are very scarce, many people are forced to do it in their home depending on some handouts. Since most of the above steps are lengthy and involve proper chanting of Sama Veda Mantras,they do only three steps of the above 10. They are 1.Snana maha Sankalpam, 2,Brahma Yagnam 3.Yagnopaveetha dharanam English is a very inadequate language to type out Sanskrit manthras. But I have made an effort to present the needed mantras for the above steps for the year 2020 because I feel that our youngsters are more at home in English rather than in their mother tongue or Sanskrit. Since I am not a Sama Vedin I depend for the mantras on Book published by C.Sankara TRama Sastri (1956) Sama Veda Upakrama prayoga published by Sri Balamanorama press, Madras.
