Guest guest Report post Posted November 20, 2002 Aditya Hridayam Sage Agastya advised Sri Ramachandra, when discouraged on the battlefield, to recite this Hymn in praise of Aditya, the Sun-god, to dispel the magical powers of Ravana, a demon drunk with power (symbolic of our rajasic ego), to gain victory over darkness and to regain the joy of light.

The all-knowing Sage Agastya, who had come and joined the gods to witness the fierce battle, saw Rama lost in deep thought, discouraged, utterly exhausted and yet facing Ravana who was ready for a fresh encounter. He spoke to him thus: 3. Oh Rama, mighty-armed Sri Rama, listen to this eternal secret whereby you shall vanquish in battle all your foes. 4. This holy hymn to the presiding deity of the Sun, if chanted fervently, will result in the destruction of all your enemies and bring you victory and unending supreme felicity. 5. It is supreme in that it is guarantee of all-round prosperity, destroyer of all sin, allayer of anxiety and anguish and bestower of longevity. 6. Do thou worship with this hymn the one Sun held in veneration by Devas (gods) and Asuras (demons), possessed of golden colored rays when he has wholly risen in the morning, who eclipses as it were other luminous bodies by his appearance on the firmament, the resplendent Lord of the universe by whose effulgence all else brightens. 7. He verily represents the totality of all celestial beings. He is self-luminous and is the sustainer of all with his rays. He protects the inhabitants of all the worlds as well as the race of the Devas and Asuras with rays that nourish and energize. 8. He (the presiding deity of the Sun) is indeed all these--Brahma, the creator; Vishnu, the sustainer; Siva, the destroyer; Skanda, the annihilator of all foes; Prajapati, Lord of all creatures; Mahendra, the King of the celestial beings; Kubera, the dispenser of riches; Kaala, the Lord of Time; Yama, the Lord of Death; Soma, the one that nourishes; and the Lord of the Waters, Varuna. 9. He is also the Pitrs, the ancestral Manes; the Vasus, the eight dispersers of treasures; the Sadhyas, yogis turned semidivine; the twin Aswini Devas, the celestial physicians; the Maruts (also celestial beings); Manu, the all-knowing and the primeval Sovereign; Vayu, the wind god; Agni, the god of fire; the vital air, sustaining from within in all created beings; the maker of the six seasons by virtue of his alternating forms of energy (heat, light, etc.), and essentially the source of all light, the awakener of knowledge. 10. The Sun is the son of Aditi (the mother of all Devas), the creator of the universe, the inspirer of action, the courser in the heavens, the sustainer, the illuminator of the directions, the golden-hued brilliance, the golden Cosmic generative fluid, and the maker of the Day. 11. He is the All-pervading one with rays countless, the power behind the seven sense organs (the two eyes, the two ears, the two nostrils and the tongue) and the dispeller of darkness (ignorance). He is the bestower of happiness and prosperity, inclusive of absolution; the remover of the misfortunes of his votaries; the infuser of life in the otherwise mundane egg of existence, and the Omnipresent being whose rays penetrate everywhere. 12. He is the primordial one who has become the Trinity--Brahma, Vishnu and Rudra, the ambrosial soothing influence, the store-house of riches (Aisvarya), the usherer in of the Day, the great teacher of even Hiranyagarbha, the fire-wombed Narayana who has the fire of doom within Himself; the son of Aditi, felicity that is supreme and vast like the expanse, and the remover of intellectual stupor or evil-mindedness. 13. He is the Lord of the firmament; the Dispeller of darkness; the Master par excellence of the three Vedas--Rig, Yajur and Sama; He from whom comes the downpour of rain, the great dispenser of the fruits of karma; the friend of the waters (fig., the friend and benefactor of the pureminded), and the one who with one bound crossed the Vindhya range; who sports in the Brahma Nadi. 14. He is the one intensely absorbed in creating the cosmos, with form circular (fig., adorned with gems Kaustubha and the like); He is the inflicter of death (fig., destroyer of impediments); He is the yellow-colored one (rising sun) (fig., the motive force of the Pingala Nadi inducing action); He is the destroyer of all; He is the Omniscient one whose form is the universe (fig., the sustainer of the universe); and who is exceedingly energetic, the beloved of all and the generator of all action. 15. He is the Lord of stars, planets and constellations and the origin of everything in the universe, the resplendent cause of the luster of even the brilliant ones such as the sun, etc., the one sentient being manifest in the twelve forms of the Sun. Salutations to Thee. 16. Salutations to the presiding deity of the Eastern mountain where the sun rises and the Western mountain where it sets; salutations to the Lord of the stellar bodies and also to the Lord of Day. 17. Salutations unto Him that ordains victory in the quest after liberation and unto Him possessed of yellow steeds; salutations to the thousand-rayed Lord (fig., of whose Part are the thousands of souls) and to Aditya, salutations again. 18. Salutations to the terrible one who is relentless to those who do not keep their senses under control; the hero who ably directs his powers in purposeful achievement such as the prowess in slaying Tripura, etc., the one that traverses fast (fig., leading quickly to the realization of Pranava, OM); salutations to the one whose emergence makes the lotus blossom (fig., the awakener of the lotus in the heart), and to the fierce and Omnipotent one. 19. Salutations to the Over-Lord of Brahma, Siva and Achyuta, the creator, destroyer and protector respectively; salutations to the powerful and to the intrinsic effulgence in the Sun that is at once the illuminator and the devourer of all and is of a form that is fierce like that of Rudra. 20. Salutations to the transcendental Atman that dispels darkness, drives away all fear that grips like cold and destroys foes, both internal and external; salutations also to the annihilator of the ungrateful and to the Lord that rules over all stellar bodies. 21. Salutations to the Lord shining like molten gold; salutations to the transcendental fire, the fire of supreme knowledge; salutations to the architect of the universe; salutations to the destroyer of darkness, and salutations again to the effulgent sentience that is also the cosmic witness. 22. Salutations to the Lord who destroys everything that was and creates them all again; salutations to Him who by His rays consumes the waters, heats them up into water vapor and send them down again as rain. 23 Salutations to the Lord who abides in the heart of all beings keeping awake even when they are asleep. He is both sacrificial fire and the fruit enjoyed by the worshipers thereof. 24. The sun is indeed the Lord of all action in this universe. He is verily the Vedas, the sacrifices ordained therein and the fruits thereof. 25. Oh Raghava, he who recites this hymn in times of peril, during affliction, while lost in the wilderness and when beset with fear, will not lose heart. 26. Worship thou, Oh Raghava, this God of all gods, the almighty Lord of the universe, with one-pointed devotion. Reciting this hymn thrice you shall emerge victorious in battle. 27. This very moment, oh mighty-armed one, you shall triumph over Ravana. Having spoken thus, Agastya returned whence he had come. 28. Having heard this, the illustrious Raghava became free from worry. He felt himself fortified, full of ardor and greatly pleased. 29. Gazing intently at Aditya and reciting the hymn, he experienced supreme felicity. Purifying himself after sipping water thrice, the mighty one took up his bow. 30. Seeing Ravana in front of him, he was delighted and came forth to fight. He put forth all his great effort determined on annihilating Ravana. 31. Then knowing that the destruction of the lord of the prowlers at night was at hand, Aditya the Sun, the central figure in the assembly of the Devas, looked at Rama with mind filled with delight and exclaimed 'HURRY UP!'

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2005 If you don't know sanskrit better dont't recite it in TAMIL. TAMILIANS CANNOT PRONOUNCE SANSKRIT. THEY CHANGE THE MEANING OF IT. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 24, 2005 There is no harm in chanting in Tamil. It is the effort and eagerness that counts, not the exact pronounciation as these are sattwick mantras, not tantric. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 24, 2005 sri ramachandra know that these devotees are praying him with such beautiful prayer.. even if they make some pronunciation mistake god is most intelligent, he understand... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 26, 2005 "If you don't know sanskrit better dont't recite it in TAMIL. TAMILIANS CANNOT PRONOUNCE SANSKRIT. THEY CHANGE THE MEANING OF IT. " How do you know tamils cannot pronounce sanskrit? Are you a tamilian? If you are a tamilian, you are lazy not to learn sanskrit. If you are not a tamilian, you should be one of the Hindi belt Hindi Chauvinist. To make sanskrti mantras easy for tamil people to read, we have "Grantha lipi", and we even have modified tamil script, in addition to some people using devanagri script. So if you dont know something, just keep your mouth shut, and dont generalise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest guest Report post Posted May 14, 2005 To claim that GOD only knows Sanskrit and does not know Tamil is a big joke and hieght of ignorance and foolish arrogance. Im a Tamil living in the Hindi belt and realise how much the so called Dravidian protectors have cheated us by preventing from learning Hindi.Learning Hidni gives us tremendous advantage in terms of the huge North Indian market for goods and servcies.Tamils being naturaly intelligent and hard working could have been more greatly successful in India if they have learnt Hindi.
