Pithru Smarna - Manthra - Translator to our Mother Tongue

[Guest guest]

Dear Guptaji,I totally agree with you, but when options are limited to get scripts in one's desired language, as learned gurujis say, chanting knowing the meaning is good. On a similar note, Swami Abhedananda was discussing of the difficulty the South African devotees have in his Chinmaya centre reading our scriptures in English.You could try http://www.google.com/transliterate/indic/Malayalam to convert the english mantras to our mother tongue. Hindi, Marathi, Urdu and others are also provided by Google on the above website.I havent come across one for Sanskrit.A bit tedious but works well for short verses.The below might be a good translation of the first

line...and if one is not happy with the word given, we could click on the translated word, and google gives more choices to choose from.ആബàµà´°à´¤àµà´®à´¾à´£àµ‹ യെ പിതàµà´°àµ വംസ ജാതാ മാതൠതതàµà´¤àµà´¤à´¾ വംസ ഭവാ മദീയാ: Hope this helps.AnilSingaporeV K Gupta <vgupta36guruvayur Sent: Wednesday, July 1, 2009 5:10:27 PMRe: [Guruvayur] Pithru Smarna - Manthra

May I request you all, (whether you are Hindu, Christian , Muslim or atheist ) to chant this mantra and offer little flower, water and a sincere devoted prayer on 21st July for your forefathers who gave you your body and life. They gave you the opportunity to come to this world and enjoy. Wherever you are, which ever part of the world you are chant this mantra and silently pray for a minimum five minutes Manthra and its meaning for the pithru tharpana to be held on 21st July, during Karkitaka vavu/new moon day (karkitaka amaavasy) Aabrahmano ye pitru vamsa jaathaa maathu thaththaa vamsa bhavaa madeeyaa:Vamsa dwayesmin mama daasa bhootha bruthyaa thathiva aasritha sevakaaschaMithraani sakhya pasavascha vruskshaa drushttaascha adrushtaascha kruthopakaaraJanmaanthare ye mama sangathaascha thebhya swayam pinda balim
