uteering the Pranavaa/ashtaaksharaa

[Guest guest]

"Srimathe Lakshmi Nrusimha parabramaneya namaha"

 

the pranavaa is a combination of the letters like this "Aa" + "Uo" + "Ma"

 

PRANAVAA IS TO BE CHANTED ONLY BY THOSE WHO HAVE HAD "BRAMHOPEDESHA"

 

now the "ashtaakshraam" is chanted with "AM" by "Sthris" and others..

 

in the pranavaa the addition of three letters "Au" +"Uo" + "Ma" gives the

pranavaa gives us only one "padham" ."namo" give us two."naarayanaa" give

us the remaining five

 

in total we have 8 symbolizing "ashtaaksharaam"

 

with "Aa" + "Ma" excluding the letter "Uo" (which is to be added to the

and to be chanted only by "upaneetaas" ie those who have had their

"upanayaanaam" done) we still get one "padham" the remaining seven are

contributed by "namo" and "naarayanaa" as previously stated.

 

so all chant only 8 "AKSHARAAS" A person who is well versed in "sanskrit'

will know this.Adiyen has no basic knowledge of "Sanskrit"

 

my cousin had his "samashrayaanaam" and "saranagathi" done under "Periya

azhagiyasinger" along with "adiyen" .this was long before his"upanayaanaam".

he was only initiated with "Am" not with "pranavaa"..

 

"upanayaanaam" is compulsory for the first three "varnaas"."kshatrityaas"

and "vaishyaas" also have this "adhyayanaam" and they can also teach

"vedaas" but only at times when a student doesnt find a "bramhnaa"

"aachaaryaa"..

 

"shruthis" and "smrithis" say that "upadeshamanthraas' are to be learnt

only under "aachaarya"..and we have to follow "shruthis" and "smrithis" as

"bhagavaan" says "Shruthi Smrithi Mama aagjnaa.............." meaning

shruthis and smrithis are my orders one has to follow it if he doesnt he is

my "DROHI"...("MAma Drohi")

 

 

if we have all these "rahaasyaaupadheshamanthraas" let out in public

where and how does the concept of "aachaaryaan" come?? even if one has

already had his "ashstaaksharaaupadeshaa" that doesnt mean he is

qualified to do "upadeshaa" to others..he has to get his "niyamanaam" from

his "aachaaryaa"

 

 

Even in "Svayaam aachaaryaa sampradhayaa" they humbly approach their

"swaamiss" and get their "branyaasaam" done..

 

 

"Then aachaarya Sampradhyaa" does not have "saraanaagathi" seperately.. and

they give many reasons ..."adiyen" dont want to go in to those details

 

 

 

To sum up which ever way it is chanted the "ashtaakshraa" still has eight

"aksharaas" ...
