Guest guest Posted July 13, 2003 Report Share Posted July 13, 2003 Namaste, adiyen has a small doubt about saayam(evening)sandhyavandhanam.i heard that we can do the saayam sandhyaavndhanam facing west (sun),if the sun is can be seen in the sky.But Some other person told me that the saayam sandhyavandhanam should be done only facing north,whatever be the state of sun. Forgive if anything is wrong from adiyen's point. Whatever the mistake be done is all adiyen's .

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2003 Report Share Posted July 14, 2003 Shriman Suresh Raghavan's doubt regarding sayam sandhya : Arghyam is always to be done facing the sun and hence facing west & actually should be timed just before the sun sets. Acharyas say in tamil " Kaanada Koonaada Kandu". Morning sandhya is before sunrise (kaanada- u dont see the sun yet), Mid-day when the sun is straight above u (Koonada), Sayam is before sun set i.e. 'Kandu'. Japam also should be done in a sitting 'padmasana' posture facing west.

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2003 Report Share Posted July 14, 2003 Adiyen Dasan from Kesavan, Actually its been a practise to do the Sayam Sandhiyavandhanam facing either East or North till the Prokshanam stage and then we need to give the Arkyam facing west. this has been the practise which Adiyen learnt from the Periyavas in previous years. Hope this gives some clarity for the doubt of the requestor. Actually the Gayatri Japam is supposed to be done facing West and the Ashtashksharam is always done facing North since the Thiruashtaksharam is done for the Lord Badri Narayanan who is facing North in his Posture. Hence this is practise as for as I know. Adiyen beg pardon if there is any istake in this regard.
