Guest guest Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 Indeed Very interesting and informative mail. But inspite of it, I am amazed to note the popularity of RT in all Praodsha pujas, Rudra Ekadashini pujas. But my doubt is , how there exists uniformity or standardization of RT mantras, when freedom has been given in shastras to do archana based on different anuvaka of Shri Rudram , and in that case there is a possibilty of many versions of RT starting from different anuvaka, also I have not come across other versions of it from different anuvakas Also I have noticed that till date in the many pujas i have attended in different parts, none of the team , complete Rudram or recite Chamakam after RT archana. Would you please give the details of other publications of the Sabha on our Dharma. Regards ganapathy MSR <miinalochanii wrote: A) Not all traditions agree that there are three hundred names in the so called "rudra-trishati" derived from shrii rudram. They clearly show that there is sanction in shastra-s to do archana (as namaavali) based on that. But no indication of that as a trishatI - in all famous bhaashhyams. Also by their count you will get only 128 phrases for archana. They also hold that it is not correct to add additional namaH etc to that; and the breaks have to done carefully. More importantly, rudram when started has to be completed. So after the archana, remaining stanzas and chamakam has to be chanted. Overall, this adhyayana sabha started by paramacharya has done wonderful service in publishing works related to our dharma (in Sanskrit-Tamil). My 2c.

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2004 Report Share Posted November 10, 2004 [if you see a duplicate of this message pls delete it] Thanks to Sri Ramki for kindly giving the information. If you go to The Hindu newspaper and do a search, you will find at least three links about the sabha. I have only three books by them -- this time when I go to India, I plan to visit them and get more. Regarding completing rudram, pramANa is quoted as vyAsa sIxa -- Sri Ganesh Prasad may be able to throw more light on this. Book suggests that devotees should use 10th anuvAka for pradaxiNa and 11th anuvAka for namaskAra. It also suggests to chant chamakam after that. Latter may be optional, but completing rudram is not. > Also I have noticed that till date in the many pujas i have > attended in different parts, none of the team , complete Rudram > or recite Chamakam after RT archana. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is interesting. My understanding is that the Bhashyakaras do not talk about prayoga for any mantra. Grihya sutras, Shautra sutras, Puranas, Tantra/Agma shatras and works on mantra prayogas like mantra mahodhari etc are the ones that talk about prayoga for both veda and other mantras. Bhashyakaras passingly mention some applications, but there observations are not taken as injunctions. I do not remember the source, but I have seen a specific text that outlined as to how to split the namaka anuvAkAs from nomo hiraNya bhAhave till AmIvaktebhyaH in to 300 namas. Rudra karma archana is another archana that is done using rudra prashnam. But even for that there are shastra injections. For instance, we don't do archana with rudra jaTa paTha or Ghana pATha. >B) According to shiva dampati themselves, lalita trishati is a sarvapUrtikari stuti I agree, In general sammeLana archana is a beautiful tradition followed in Sri Vidhya. There are specific sammeLaNa archanas like kailAsAdi etc. Aravind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally this archana is called Kailasa archana. Here is a link :- http://sanskrit.bhaarat.com/brahmavidya/3rd% 20page.htm There is a small sammeLana archana consisting of 24 nama-s starting from shivAya namaH - shivAyai namaH some people use this for regular archana and some do it as anga puja. (I will try to post the nama-s some time). Aravind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
