  • Sandhyavandanam
    samskaaram.com SandhyAvandanam What? “sandhyAvandanam” is a “nitya karmA”, a daily obligatory duty of the dwijas. (those who wear the sacred thread) “sandhyA” means ‘twilight’ and “vandanam” means ‘worship’. sandhyAvandanam is the worship performed at dawn and dusk to the supreme Lord who is the indweller of the disc of the sun. The meditative repetition of the gAyatri mantrA and the offerings of water called “arghyam” are central to the “sandhyAvandanam” procedure. “vEda mAtA gAyatree” The word “gAyatree” has its origin in the Sanskrit phrase “gAyantam trAyatE iti” which means that mantra which rescues the chanter from all adverse situations that may lead to mortality. gAyatree mantra finds its place in rig Veda samhitA 3. 62. 10. gAyatri is the mother of vEdAs. gAyatri mantrA is the most powerful mantra.

  • Nitya Karma Or Daily Duty
    Satsanga with Sri Swami Viditatmananda Saraswati Arsha Vidya Gurukulam NITYA-KARMA, OBLIGATORY DUTIES िनािन - अकरण े ूवायसाधनािन सावनादीिन॥ nityāni - akaraṇe pratyavāyasādhanāni sandhyāvandanādīni. Daily rites, such as the sandhyāvandana the non-performance of which causes harm, are called nitya-karma [Vedāntasāra, 9]. Nitya-karma are daily obligatory duties described as sandhyāvandanādini, such as sandhyāvanda. Typically, a person worships three times a day at particular times called sandhya. Sandhya means sandhi or the time when there is a joining or transition in the hours of the day or night. Such times are considered to be auspicious for prayers. There is a morning sandhya or prāta-sandhya, when there is a transition from night to the dawning of day. There is an evening sandhya, the sāyam-sandhyā, when there is a transition from day to night. Then there is the noon sandhya called madhya- sandhya, when the sun is at its zenith, and it is the period of transition when the first half of the day ends and the second half begins. Prāta, madhyan, and sāyam are thus three times of ‘joining’, which are considered to be auspicious times for the performance of prayers. Typically, a boy is initiated into the ritual of the sandhyāvandanam, which consists of making certain offerings, prayers, and chanting the gāyatrī-mantra. A human being is born with three kinds of debts The concept of nitya-karma comes from a sense of obligation. This concept was mentioned at the beginning of this text when it was said that even at birth we enjoy various privileges.

Khowa sect, Vaishnavism, The category as initiated by June McDaniel in her work is applied for the case study of the Assam, Kamakhya Bengal region in India. The new category marks a sharp distinction from the classical Tantra. The study attempts to explore the category further and expand it into the area of Assam in India. The Rati Khowa sect grew after the schism in the popular Vaishnavite movement in Assam. The sect is of esoteric nature which displays the amalgamation of Vaishnavite and Tantric elements. It could be seen in a few districts of Assam. The rituals practised by the sect comes under the left- hand path of Tantra and thus are not approved by the societal norms. Rituals are open only to the participants practised in secret and excluding the outsiders completely. The study will attempt to view the Rati Khowa sect as a folk tantric category. In the process, it will also examine that the category of folk Tantra in Assam is dissimilar to the category of folk Tantra in Bengal as viewed by June McDaniel. Introduction The Indic religious setting comprises distinct traditions quite peculiar in their understanding and way of life.

It is not the cheap and superficial devotion of materialistic simpletons, but the pure love of those selfless souls who have come to this level through the path already traced by Krishna in the previous chapters. Such path is so sublime, simple and clear that it can be followed successfully by everyone, including those who are less qualified materially in terms of erudition, austerity, ritual purity and so on. In chapter 1, Krishna utilized the disillusionment expressed by Arjuna to move our attention from the ordinary material concerns to the pursuit of spiritual knowledge and realization. In chapter 2, Krishna clearly explained what is the difference between the temporary material body and the eternal transcendental spirit soul, called atman. In chapter 3, the yoga of action is explained, by which we can work on the spiritual level while still living in the material body and world - performing our duties selflessly, as an act of worship to the Supreme, or yajna (sacred action). This could be called the ABC of Self realization.

  • Dattatreya – Avadhuta Gita
    DATTATREYA: LA CANCIÓN DEL AVADHUT Versión española de la traducción inglesa del Avadhut Gita (con transcripción sánscrita) Por S. Abhayananda DATTATREYA: LA CANCIÓN DEL AVADHUT INTRODUCCIÓN La Canción del Avadhut De todos los tratados místicos de la literatura india antigua, el Avadhut Gita, o Canción del Avadhut, es uno de los más elocuentes y apremiantes. Su tema es el conocimiento unitivo obtenido a través de la visión mística, el conocimiento del eterno Sí Mismo. Este conocimiento no se limita a los místicos de una determinada tradición cultural, sino que es universal entre todos aquellos que han logrado la visión mística. Hombres y mujeres de todos los países y todas las convicciones religiosas han experimentado de primera mano la Realidad eterna, y La han realizado como su propia Identidad esencial. Algunos de los representantes mejor conocidos de este conocimiento universal son los rishis upanisádicos y Shankaracharya en la tradición vedántica, al-Hallaj y Jalaluddin Rumí en la tradición sufí, Shakyamuni y Ashvagosha en la tradición budista, y Meister Eckhart y Juan de la Cruz en la tradición cristiana. Todos han manifestado el conocimiento revelado de su identidad con la única, eterna, Realidad, y declarado, de una u otra manera, su acuerdo con las palabras de la santa cristiana Catalina de Génova, «Mi Yo es Dios, no reconozco ningún otro Yo excepto mi Dios Mismo». A lo largo de la Historia, la aserción de los místicos de todas las tradiciones culturales ha sido que «la visión de Dios» revela la unidad esencial del hombre con el Ser Absoluto, despertándolo a su verdadera y eterna Identidad.
