KUMBAKONAM RG VEDA GANAPAADI SRI RENGARAJAN

SWAMY , A GREAT BRAHASPTHI AND VEDIC SCHOLAR ,

TAKES US THROUGH EVERY STEP OF THE INDIVIDUAL

SANDHYA VANDHANAM PROCEDURES STARTING FROM

BEGINNING TO END IN A SLOW AND STEADY MANNER

FOR THE PERFORMERS TO FOLLOW . ANOTHER GANAPAADI

AND A 7 YEAR OLD CHILD PERORM THE SANDHYA VANDHANAM.

THE INDIVIDUAL STEPS OF SANDHYAA VANDHANAM COVERED ARE :

 

AACHAMANEEYAM , PRAANAAYAMAM , SANKALPAM ,

SAATHVIKA THYAAGAM , PROKSHANAM , PRAASANAM ,

ARGYAM INCLUDING KAALAATHEETHA ARGYAM AND ITS

KARANYAASA MUDHRAIS , ASTHRA MANTHRAM, DHIG

BHANDHAM , DHYAANAM , WAYS TO PERFORM GAAYATHRI

DEVATHAA NAMSKAARAM , DHIG NAMASKAARAM , ASHTAAKSHARA

MANTHRA JAPAM TIMING , SAATHVIKA THYAAGAM ,

TWO POINTS GANAPAADI SWAMY MADE IN THE OVERALL

CONTEXT OF PERFORMING SANDHYAA WERE STRIKING :

 

(1) ONE WHO HAS NOT PERFORMED SANDHYA VANDHANAMS

IN A ROW FOR THREE DAYS HAS TO UNDERGO UPANAYANAM

CEREMONIES (BRAHMOPADESAM ) AGAIN . SUCH A PERSON ,

WHO ABANDONS SANDHYA VANDHANAM IS NOT FIT TO DO

ANY VAIDHIKA KARMAAS . HH. POUNDARIKAPURAM

ANDAVAN ELABORATED THESE POINTS IN THE DISCS

DEALING WITH SAAMA SANDHYAA VANDHANAM .

 

(2) THE PERFORMER OF THE SANDHYAA , WHETHER HE

IS IN DESAANTHARAM OR DHVIPAANTHARAM ( OVERSEAS )

SHOULD RECITE A SLOKAM THAT SAYS THAT HE IS TURNING

TOWARDS THE DIRECTION OF SRIRANGAM TO DEDICATE

THE JUST PERFORMED SANDHYAA TO LORD RANGANAATHAN .

 

PRACTICAL DETAILS ON PERGFROMANCE OF SANDHYAA

*********************************************

A WEALTH OF DETAILS ON SISHTAACHAARAM ARE PROVIDED

AND DEMONSTRATED BY THE ANUSHTAAS . THERE IS NO MORE

EXCUSE FOR NOT PERFORMING SANDHYAAS EVERY DAY

THREE TIMES WITHOUT INTERRUPTION . THE MATERIAL

ASSEMBLED CAREFULLY IN THESE DISCS WITH OVERALL

GUIDANCE FROM ACHAARYAAS AND SCHOLARS WILL

HELP ONE OVERCOME DEFICIENCIES IN THE AWARENESS OF

PERFORMING SANDHYAA IN THE PROPER WAY AS PRACTISED BY

OUR AACHAARYAAS AND POORVAAS FOLLOWING ANCIENT

TRADITIONS.

 

PEOPLE HAVE WRITTEN TO ME AND HAVE SAID THAT THEY

SPENT A LOT OF MONEY ON CONDUCTING THE UPANAYANAM

FOR THE SON AND THAT THEY COULD NOT GET THE HELP OF

THE BRUHASPATHI TO TEACH THE CHILD TO LEARN IT

FIRMLY DUE TO THEIR (BRUHASPATHY'S) OTHER COMMITMENTS .

THIS WAS ONE OF THE REASONS FOR CREATING THESE REFERENCE

DVDs ON THRIVEDA SANDHYAAS FOR THRIKAALAMS .

 

SOME OF THE OLDER PEOPLE(PARENTS) ALSO REFERRED TO

PROBLEMS IN TERMS OF THE WAYS TO PERORM ACHAMANEEYAM ,

PRAANAAYAAMAM , ANGA AND KARA NYAASAMS ,

UCCHARANAMS (WITH SAVARAMS OF VEDA MANTHRAMS) ,

DIRECTIONS TO FACE , HOW TO GIVE ARGYAMS AND A HOST

OF OTHER MATTERS. THESE DISCS CONTAIN PERTINENT

INFORMATION ON ALL THESE POINTS FOR THEM TO REFRESH

THEIR MINDS AND TO TEACH THEIR CHILDREN .

 

THESE DISCS WOULD BE MADE AVIALBLE IN INDIA AS WELL

AS IN USA . VOLUNTEERS FROM OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD

ARE ENCOURAGED TO ACT AS CENTERS OF DISTRIBUTION .

AS THE OVERALL PRODUCER , I WILL SERVE AS A CENTRAL

POINT OF CONTACT FOR THE DSITRIBUTION OF THESE DVDs.

 

THE WHOLE PURPOSE IS TO EXPAND THE REACH OF THESE

PRECIOUS MANTHRAMS AND PROCEDURES TO AS MANY

ANUSHTAATHAAS AS POSSIBLE.

 

SURPRISE GIFT :

************

RG VEDA GANAPAADI SWAMY WAS SO ENTHUSED

ABOUT THIS INITATIVE THAT HE RECORDED GHANAM

RENDERING OF SELECTED PASSAGES FROM RG VEDAM .

THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY GANAPAADIS FOR RG VEDAM

AND THEREFORE IT IS A TREAT FOR US IN THE EXPERIENCING OF

THE RG VEDA SANDHY VANDHANAM DVDs.

IN THESE DVDs FOR YOUR FAMILY AND SPECIFY
