Aswamegha Gayatri MahaYagna in Madurai, India—Live on Internet

[Guest guest]

Aswamegha Yagna in Madurai, India—Live on Internet

>From times immemorial, daily Gayatri Mantra Chanting and Agnihotra

(Yagya) have been the two cardinal principles and upholders

of perennial Vedic Culture of Ancient India. Gayatri Mantra

Chantinig symbolizes constant remembrance of the Supreme Spirit of

the Cosmos; and Yagya symbolizes the mutual ceaseless sharing and

caring of the

cosmic energies and processes, which keep the harmony of the spheres

intact.

 

Ashwamedh Yagya

As `Ashwa' is the symbol of mobility, velour and strength and

the `medha' is the symbol

of supreme wisdom and intelligence, the natural meaning

of `Ashwamedh' can be taken

as "the combination of the velour and strength and illumined power of

intellect". It is the

combination of these two for selfless and other-centered motives that

may create an

ideal society and nation. This is the reason, why the making of a

nation has been called

`Ashwamedh'.

 

Ashwamedh yagyas as propounded and performed by Gayatri Mission

(www.awgp.org, www.dsvv.org, www.akhand-jyoti.org ) in the present

day context, means – Cosmic Energy (Ashwa) led and guided by Medha

(Enlightened Intelligence) for collective awakening and ennobling of

society.

 

The Mission has so far performed 29 such mass scale Mahayagyas (23 in

India and 6 abroad). The one going to be performed at Madurai

Meenakshi Teertth from Dec 29, 2005 to Jan 1 2006 will be the

thirtieth in this chain and the first in the holy land of Tamilnadu,

India.
