Can anybody clarify my doubt.

 

 

 

Namaskaaram,

 

This is Sudarshan Kumar here. I appreciate the fantastic work done in by the saranagathi group and this will really help the masses.

 

I have a doubt and request you to kindly clarify. While doing the Saayam Sandhya, my father has taught me to do the entire saayam sandhya facing in west direction (change directions only during sandhyaadi devataa vandanam / dik vandanam). However I have seen my neighbor (who is a aandavan ashramam shishya) doing the saayam sandhya starting in the east direction that is aachamanam, pranayama, manthra prokshanam, etc. Then turns west and performs Arghayam, Tharpanam, Gayathri Japam, Upasthanam, dik vandanam etc facing in west direction. Again turns towards east and do the concluding aachamanam and turns west direction to do saatvika thyagam and conclude sandhya vandanam. He also says that Aachamanam should always be done facing east direction only.

 

I have referred many books and internet site to get this necessary information, but could not. All books tell the saayam sandhya to be done (entire anushtanam) facing west direction.

 

My neighbor even advised me that what ever I am doing is wrong and I should have to change the directions per his advice. Pl guide me what is right. Your response will be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Regards,

 

Sudarshan Kumar. S

Re: Doubts in performing Saayam SandhyA Vandhanam

 

Sir,

 

The information is very useful.

 

I have one doubt.

 

In Pradhd Sandhya, Sandyayai Namaha is chanted facing east

In Madhyannam, since facing North should we start with Saraswathyai Namaha or

Sandhyayai Namaha:

 

Similarly in Sayam Sandhaya, since facing West, should we start with Gayatriyai

Namaha or Sandyayai Namaha

 

May be sillly at your standards but please clarify, since we have no formal

learning.

 

Dasan

Dear Sriman Sadagopachar swamin,

(Any vaideeka karma can be done facing north)

Many shistas are using the following directions to do the corresponding action

while sayam sandhyai.

Achamanam, Pranayamam, Sankalpam, Sadhvikatyagam --- North

Prokshanam, praasanam, punaprokshanam ------------ --------- --- North

Achamanam, Ghraanam, Argya sankalpam--- --------- --------- ----- North

Argyam, Kaalaateeta prayaschita argyam ------------ --------- ------ West

Asavadhityo brahma ------------ --------- --------- --------- ---------

--------- Round

Achamanam ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------

--------- - North

Kesavadhi Tarpanam ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- -------

West

Achamanam ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------

--------- North

 

Japa karyam from start to end ------------ --------- - facing -------- West

Devata vandanam Sandhyayai namaha ityaadi starts from --- West,

Dhig vantanam, Pradeechyai dhise namaha ityaadi starts from--West,

Sarvabhyo devadabhyo namo namaha, namaskaram, abhivadhi -- West

Achmanam ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------

--------- -------- North

End satvikathyagam ------------ practically on the go to Pooja room
