GAYATHRI UPASANA FOR ALL INCLUDING LADIES
Om Shri Gayathri Devyai nama:
The GAYATHRI MANTHRA is our National Manthra and it should be chant by all irrespective of cast, creed and Sex. The Vedha Marga is advocating this. Now a days our ladies were not allowed to for Upanayanam and they were isolated from doing any upasana. It is not enough either to do Lakshmi Ashtothram, Lalitha Sahasranamam etc. Before that they have to initiated with Gayathri Mandra. Ladies play a vital role in all walks of our life. They are also entitled to do all upasana and also they have got every right to perform Homam. For example a small thing I would like quote here as example.
1. When we are Brahmachari we are not allowed to do any Hoamam even for Srardham through Agni mugandhram. A Brahmachari can not have the right for Agni unless he get into marriage which means through his wife only he gets the Agni. That means all ladies possess them self with Agni. Without Agni No Homam. Apart from this when he is doing such Homam his wife is standing behind him by holding Dharpai which touch his body. What it means? She is giving her energy to concern person (which is being transmitted through Dharbai) When that is the case, Why they were not allowed to perform their nithya karma. Preventing ladies to do their Nithya karma has been influenced by some unwanted external sources and unknowingly we are still adopting it. THIS IS WRONG.
All of us saying that we are adopting Vedha margm. But honestly speeking we are not.
Here I would like to quote some messages from the Vedhas:
' UttishTata mAA svapta animicchadhvam BhArata:/"
Meaning:- "Oh men of Bharathi! Arise, Awake worship agni" The above statement extols all Bharathiwas to be awake and worship Agni. "Bha" in Sanskrit denotes light and one who worships fire/Agni is called "bhAratheeya". The very fact that India is called "BHARAT" confirms the fact that all Indians were following the Vedhas and leading their life as said in Vedhas. The worship of Agni starts after the Upanayanam and continues after marriage. In fact the real Agni worship and life starts after marriage only. Once life full only after marriage.
What is Vedhic path:
The primordial energy (Siva and Sakthi) which created the whole universe, laid down the Vedic path so that every human being could live happily enjoying all comforts – social and spiritual. It is nothing but the life lived by our seers, (i.e. eternal familial life with wife and children) ordained by the Vedhas. The only routine objective of the Vedhas is grhastashramam (i.e. with familial life [Dhampathya] husband, wife and Children so on) which is one and only Ashrama started by the Vedhas and which can really lead one to get the fruit of this birth {i.e.salvation}
Brahmacharyam is the form of Vedha adyayanam, bearing all sorts of happiness. Well-being, etc., This brahmacharyam is the first step and the path to the next auspicious stage of familial life ( i.e. grahastyashramam) the path to salvation said in the Vedhas. This brahmacharyam is the form of learning of the Vedhas and Gayathri worship which is applicable to all including women irrespective of their caste, creed and sex.
" BrahmacharyeNa kanyA yavAnam vindate patim "
(Athava Vedha – kanda 11. Su 17)
Meaning:- A kanya acquires a youth as husband by virtue of Brahmacharya. Many such vedic hymns glorify the significance of brahmacharyam for girls as well. The effect of brahmacharyam dwells in grahastyashramam which is the only Ashram accepted by the Vedha. Rishis including Apasthambha opine the sane, as the suthA of his says:-
"aykashramyam Tvacarya: Pratyakshavidhanat Garhasthasya"/
(Apasthamba Suthram)
Meaning:- There is only one Ashramam which is the Grahasthashrama
Many such utras exound such advocacies. Hence the reason for our seers like atri, kashyapa, vsishta, agastya, bharadvaja and others to lead a vedic lifestyle. A life with wife, doing penance, performing daily rituals (nithya karma) Gayathri upasana (worship) of agni, yagnya and chanting of Vedas unitl their last breath is the vedic way of living. Our forefathers also lead such an ascetic life of penance and experienced the Brahman.
All of us belong to the lineage of those ascetic maharishis and dharma is especially for us. The maharishi dharma is the form of eternal familial life (nityagArhastya) is the objective of all vedhas also well evident from Ramayana.
Individuals devoid of this dampatya are devoid of moksha, brahma samyujyam. Belivers and followers of Vedas in its true sense should dwell in the eternal Grahastya dharma. This maharishi dharma which is the divya marga of vedhas is called Brahma marga which bestows happiness and well-being everywhere.
The vedic path and the dharma have become almost extinct. Rather other practices which are contrary to the laws of Nature have cropped and are spread throughout the length and breadth of our land. Let us practice the Vedic religion in its true sense, follow whatever is said in vedhas and let us not succumb to the accustomed dogmas. It is not only sufficient if we practice the true vedic religion but also let others know what it is. This practice should not sink with our self but should prolong till our lat heir.
Vedhas being universal in nature and common to all, the above way of life is to be followed by one and all without any difference in the name of caste, color, creed or sex. The above has to be followed while carrying on our normal day to day activities by organizing oneself. The vedhas affirm equality which is evident from the hymn of the yajur veda
"YathemAm vAcham kalyAnim AdadAmi Janebhya;
Brhma rajanyabhyam Sudrya ca Aryaya ca
Svaya-caranaya ca……"
which means "Just as I am speaking these blessed words to the people, these words are for the men and women. The Brahmanas, kshtriyas, vishayas. Sudras and all others irrespective of they being our own people or aliens"
Let us understand that:-
1. Vedhas are for all. Gayathri gives the basic qualification
2. Agni worship is the basic of life
3. Agni is not physical fire but the energy source of cration
4. Salvation is only through this Agni workship
5. This can be understood and achieved through marriage only.
WHY OF LIFE ENVISAGED IN THE VEDHAS
1. Upanayanam and Gayathri Upasana
2. Learning of vedhas to understand the concepts of creation, and its existence as per vedha
3. Giving offering to the fire both in the morning and evening (Samithadanam)
4. After full learning of vedhas and its meanings enter into married life
5. Leading a married life is a part of Agni upasana
6. Giving offering to the fire twice a day with wife
7. Finally offering one's body in the same fire after death symbolizing that the energy which created us and sustained us throughout the life is the one with which we merge and attain salvation.
HOW TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE WITH REGARD TO UR PRESENT SITUATION IN THE WORLD
1. Upanayanam and Gayathri initiation
2. Learning of essential suktas (recitations) and chanting Gayathri mantra (Gayathri is the essence of Vedhas)
3. Leading a married life ony
4. Performing important samskaras (rites) as said in the Vedas with the help of those who are well versed with it.
