  • Waking and Remembering the Lord
    Waking and Remembering the Lord Upon awakening Upon awakening, chant the Hare Krsna mantra, or at least ‘Krsna, Krsna, Krsna.’ Offer obeisances to your spiritual master while chanting his pranama prayer(s): nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale srimate [spiritual master’s name] iti namine I offer my respectful obeisances unto [spiritual master’s name], who is very dear to Lord Krsna, having taken shelter at His lotus feet. You may then chant the following prayer to the Lord: pratah prabodhito visno hrsikesena yat tvaya yad yat karayasisana tat karomi tavajnaya O Visnu, O Isana, O Hrsikesa, You have awakened me, and now I am ready to do whatever You wish today. [Visnu-dharmottara, quoted in Hari-bhakti-vilasa 3.91] Before rising you may pray to Mother Earth: samudra-vasane devi parvata-stana-mandite visnu-patni namas tubhyam pada-sparsam ksamasva me O Mother Earth, I offer my humble obeisances unto you, who are the wife of Lord Visnu and the residence of the oceans, and who are decorated with mountains. Please forgive me for stepping upon you. www.fanthespark.com 1 Rise up and fold up your bedding. The Hari-bhakti-vilasa recommends several verses you may chant upon awakening to glorify the Lord and counteract bad dreams. The following verse, spoken by Sukadeva Gosvami, is a favorite of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s followers: jayati jana-nivaso devaki-janma-vado yadu-vara-parisat svair dorbhir asyann adharmam sthira-cara-vrjina-ghnah susmita-sri-mukhena vraja-pura-vanitanam vardhayan kama-devam Lord Sri Krsna is He who is known as Jana-nivasa, the ultimate resort of all living entities, and who is also known as Devaki-nandana or Yasoda-nandana, the son of Devaki and Yasoda.

Prasad Noise and Vibration Control Laboratory Department of Mechanical Engineering Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey [email protected] _____________________________________________________________________________ presented at Workshop on Sound Perception of Places of Worship (of different Religions) via a multidisciplinary anthropological and acoustic approach Musee du Quai Branly, Paris, France. November 3-4, 2015 Lord Krishna with “CONCH-SHELL ” Lord Shiva with “DRUM ” “ROSARY” as Speech Alphabet Sounds Goddess Saraswathi with “ VEENA ” Lord Krishna with “ FLUTE ” Acoustics and Vedic Tradition The Vedas, which are the foundational literature of Hinduism, are the collection of mantras chanted with precise acoustical characteristics. Oral tradition has been very efficient in transmitting the Vedic chanting from master to disciple over generations. Vedic chants in Hindu worship are well known. In addition to Vedic chants, Instruments such as Conch-Shells, Bells and Gongs are commonly used to enhance the spiritual experience of the devotees during the worship. This study presents acoustical studies of chants and of these instruments sounding individually as well as collectively. Acoustical knowledge of ancient Hindus “It would form a fascinating chapter of history to try and trace the gradual development of musical instruments and musical knowledge, from the rhythmic chanting of Rig-Veda in the ancient home of the Aryan race to the Indian music of the present day” -- Sir C. V. Raman (1922) Vedic Chanting through Oral Tradition “Expressed in the Vedic language, which is derived from classical Sanskrit, the verses of the Vedas were traditionally chanted during sacred rituals and recited daily in Vedic communities.

  • Hindu Worship, Known As Puja, Involves All Five Senses of Touch
    Hindu worship, known as puja, involves all five senses of touch, taste, smell, sight and hearing, and also what Hindus consider to be the five basic elements: light, fire, earth, air and water. It can be carried out in the home of Hindus before a shrine, or in the Hindu temple, which is known as a mandir. Hindus wash thoroughly before prayers at home. When they enter a temple, they remove their shoes. They show respect to the gods by making offerings of money or food (rice, nuts or fruit) to the shrines of the gods. Puja begins with the washing of the images of the gods. They are washed with water, and sometimes with a milk based mixture called panchamrit. Next the images of the gods are anointed with a perfumed, coloured marks made of haldi (turmeric) and kumkum. These marks are called tilaka and are also worn by Hindu priests and Hindu women. Offerings of food and flowers are now made to the images. The offering of food is made because the gods provide people with all their needs. The offerings of flowers signify respect and worship. Incense is burnt before the image and a bell is rung. Both of these show the respect of the worshipper and announce the presence of the god. In the temple the curtains would now be drawn before the gods, and the people spend some time in prayer. The climax of the worship is the lighting of the Arti lamp. On the puja tray with the lamp are a bell, a flower, a pot of ghee (oil) and a pot of water.
