Gayatri mantra and OM namah Shivay mantra

February 21, 2009

Hello Sir,

I have been asked to daily recite Gayatri mantra ( as many times as I

can - no fixed number ).

I have also been asked to keep a fast on Thursday because - " Guru "

planet is strong in my charts.

My request to you all was to make me understand the significance of

Gayatri mantra - benefits that one gets by reciting the mantra - who

should recite the mantra.

I am also told that I should also recite " OM namah Shivay " mantra

as many times as I can .

If some one can also educate me about the significance of the this

mantra and the benefits that one may get by reciting this mantra and

who should recite this mantra.

Thank you sir , for allowing me to post my request.

Regards

ANY MANTRA must be followed after a upadesha by either ur Kula purohit/a Guru or

one of ur parents recite with them 3 times and then proceed on ur own. best when

a spiritual Guru a temple priest initate U

Gyathri is the ultimate or Mother of All mantras

and it will give u a lot of energy, vision, intution apart from grqace PROVIDED

u live a decent life style without greed, averice, coveting someones elses

spouse/wealth etc.

working on ur own wealth, spiritual goals will help u reach good heights

all Mantras must be read in sanskrit and the Hindi movies and its s ipt writers

or directers who were non Hindus have diluted the sound it is more Islamic to

have short or sharp ending

pl see the correction in the Siva mantra and recite accordingly

like Bhaktha is sanskrit Bhukt is non Hindu sound but sad is become part

Shrama is sanskrit Shrum is non Hindu sound

Dharma not Bharm, Darum

Karma not karam

Moksha not Moksh

SWaRA IS currupted as Sur, Shur, sWar etc

try getting audio versions from where invaders had less role and films too made

by them

Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Maharashtra have some shades of good sounds

still left

DICTION IS THE CRUX OF VEDIC MANTRAS APASVARA CAM MEAN MORE HARM

best wishes

In this context, Pandit Ravishankar has produced a CD named Vedic

Chants. It pleases the ear, heart and the soul.

Sanskrit is difficult to write phonetically in english without the

complex diacritical marks which are very unwieldy to plough through!

Almost by convention spellings like Dharma have become acceptable

however I have seen some people (of non indian origin mostly) getting

confused and pronouncing these words as Dha'rmaa (a' as in actor and

aa as in hindi name for mango = aam). For them Dhurm probably is more

phonetically appropriate with the trailing 'm' being a solid one and

not one with a 'halant'. To a hindi-speaking person dhurm will have

a 'u' sound with a sharp and short 'm'.

It is best to hear, as you rightly suggested.

Dear RRji

thanks for noticing the diff esp Sri Sri ravi shankar's CD I am sure u r aware

of him being different to Pt ravishankar [sitar] the former is a South

Indian-Karnataka or Mysore Maharaja's dewan's grandson. took to a spiritual path

and id is a well known NGO apart from his spiritual exploits and a tireless

worker in conflict and natural calametyies prone regions will never get a Nobel

prize as he is working in too many areas but tarteged ones in East Timor or in

calcutta did get a Nobel prize in a free society.

ravishankar ji has done exceptionally well in many troubled places. a meteioric

rise was a disciple of Mahesh Yogi who spotted the potential in him and asked

him to set up his own order. and has proved his master right.

ON SANSKRIT REDDERING

THE BLAME IS ON FILMS AND NON hINDU TEACHER, WRITERS using it sadly the Brahmins

who did not teach it to all rather their own faith but did teach some of them so

this dilution from alien speakers, writers has got more spread than if a Brahmin

taught parampara for al worked down the ages.

so partly the blame is on us as well.

my post was not aimed at anyone but was a reflection why it cud have been

diluted in diction.

the NEW AGE MEDIUM CASSETTES, CDS internet file sharing has spread the good

works faster.
