Sandhya IV

Sorry! U had to wait for a long time for this IVth part of Sandhya. Actually I became too much busy in my daily tasks that I could not find the time for U. Well, now I am writing this part in which first let me repeat gayatri mantra and after that two more hymns:
Guru Mantra
Om bhurbhuvah swah tat saviturvareniyam bhargo devasya dheemahi dhio yo nah prachodayaat||1, 19||
Meaning: O protector! truthful! Live! Joyful! Vital, reliever of sorrow, happiness provider God! We accept your all images which are as follows - en lighter of soul, full of scientific light, acceptable, purest,  who fulfills our every need. All these images would inspire our mind  to good and positive actions.
Samarpanam
He eeshwar dayanidhe bhavatkrippya anen japopasnadi karmana dharm arth kaam mokshaanam sadya siddhirbhavennah||20||
O merciful god! By your kindness, by muttering prayers, devotion and actions; doing actions for the sake of others and true justice, to get worldly pleasure with religious deeds, to get prosperity and fruits with law(religion) and money [actually dharm(law), arth(money and prosperity), kam(to complete desires) and salvation all these four are accomplishments.]; we should become please by getting leave from all sorrows, bad habits, bad actions and bad persons[salvation].
Om namah sahmbhavaya cha mayobhavaya cha namah shankaray cha mayaskaraya cha namah shivaya cha shivtaraya cha||21||
O salvation provider and the house of salvation! O worldly pleasure provider god! We salute thee. You always do our best, O joy provider for your devotees! we salute thee. O sorrow taker and well wisher god! we salute thee many times.
....End....
Now before Sandhya I we should do some tasks. These are given below-
Achman(Taking Sips)
In the beginning, after reciting gayatri mantra, we should recite this Yajurveda verse-
Om shannodevi rabhishtaye apo bhavantu peetaye shayyon rabhi sravantu nah||2||
O omniprotector! full of divine prosperity and omni present god! for the sake of getting desired pleasure, for getting salvation(full pleasure - which is not worldly), for complete protection, you must be well wisher for us or you should do our welfare and always pour pleasure on us.
[we should take three water sips for this hymn]

To get power in our organs:-
Touching Organs(with water)
Om vak vak, (mouth)
Om pranah pranah (nose)
Om chakshuh chakshuh (eyes)
Om Shtotram shrotram (ears)
Om nabhih (Naval)
Om hridayam (heart)
Om kanthah (throat)
Om shirah (head)
Om bahubhyaam yashobalam (shoulders)
Om kartalkar prishtheh (Back of palms)
||3||
(Firstly touch left organ after right)

To make our organs pious:
Sprinkling(Water) on organs
Om bhuh punatu shirasi (Head)
Om bhuvah punatu netrayoh (eyes)
Om swah punatu kanthe (Throat)
Om mahah punatu hridaye (heart)
Om janah punatu nabhyaam (naval)
Om tapah punatu padayoh (feet)
Om satyam punatu punah shirasi (Head)
Om kaham brahm punatu sarvatrah (All organs)
||4|| 
Pranayaam Verse
Om bhuh, Om bhuvah, Om swah, Om mahah, Om janah, Om tapah, Om satyam.||5||
Vital, sorrow destroyer, joy provider, great, father of all, to whom we can know by the way of hardship, who is never-ending and truthful.
[Method of doing pranayaam will be published later I promise.]
See U in the next post soon.

Thanx

Sandhya III

Sandhya is that time when day and night meet. It comes twice in a day.
Now, in this third part of sandhya, I am narrating four hymns of Yajurveda with its explanations. With the help of these hymns, we use to feel nearness with the god that is why these hymns are called 'Upasthaan' verses-
Upasthaan Mantras
Om udvayam tamasaspari swah pashyant uttaram devam devatra suryamaganm jyoti ruttamam.
O god! u r away from ignorance, you have existence after the end of this universe too. U are present everywhere with miraculous and divine properties and u are supreme-soul who lives in both alive and non living things. We should get ur finest illuminated form with truthfulness.
Om udutyam jatvedsam devam vahanti ketavah drishe vishwaye suryam.
O most prosperous master of the world! U produce the whole prosperity and u illuminate the souls of living things. All the elements of this world works as flags to show ur divine properties and character. As the flags show the way to move any particular place, with similar account, rules of the universe and vedas etc. define u exactly.
Om chitram devana mudgadneekam chakshurmitrasya varunasyagne apra dyava prithvi antarikshagwam surya atma jagatastasthushashcha swaha.
O our master! You are always illuminated within hearts of scholars and yogis. We wish that you will be illuminated in our hearts. You are power of divine materials. So you give light to the persons those are without love and hate, the sun & life wind; means one who does high quality actions, life wind which take away things from body, life wind that distributes material in whole body, fire principle & different types of knowledges. You create dyau(stars like sun etc.), earth and the whole space, and operate them all. God! You are creator of living and no living-things of this world and you live within them all. As the vedas say we must attend the truth with our mind, speech and actions.
Om tachchakshurdevahitam purastachchhukramuchcharat pashyem shardah shatam, jeevem shardah shatam, shrunuyaam shardah shatam, prabravaam shardah shatamadeenah shardah shatam bhuyashcha shardah shataat.
O god! You, similar to eyes, are viewer from the indefinite time period, for the sake of scholars and the whole world having form of pure flame and present for everyone. We may see you for hundred winter seasons. We should be alive for hundred winters. We should listen Vedas, vedic literature and sermons with holy speeches. We should teach vedas etc. and explain truth for hundred winters. We should not be dependent till hundred winters and if we live more than hundred years, we should be alike.
See u in last post of Sandhya, Sandhya IV, in next post.

Sandhya II

One who uses to study vedas and does not make his character according to its teachings, to that character less person, even vedas can not make pious whether he might study vedas with its six parts. To this type of person, knowledge of vedas leaves like a bird which leaves its dear nest after growth of its wings.
So, we must understand well that we have only one target and that is to pass our life having sublime and pious character according to the teachings of vedas and having faith in the existence of God, religion, re-birth and actions with its fruits etc.
The science and knowledge of god is contained within vedic hymns. But for this wide spread and grand knowledge and creation, a person uses to think ever. The main reason behind this sandhya is that we should become one with holy thoughts of the god and we should continue to pray - O God! u live with us ever, having greatness and strangeness.
(Mansa Parikrama Mantras)
Now I am giving you meanings of six more hymns of sandhya-
Om prachi digagniradhipatirasito rakshitaditya iswah. Tebhyo namo adhipatibhyo namo rakshitribhyo nama ishubhyo nama ebhyo astu. Yoasmaan dveshti yam vayam dvishmastam vo jambhe dadhmah.
O omniscient god! you are present in front of us in east, you are unbound king and protector. You created the sun whose arrow like rays give life on earth. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again. Persons who have ill-desires for us and for whom we have ill-desires, we leave this matter on your capacity of justice.
Om dakshina digindro adhipatistirashchiraji rakshita pitar ishwah. Tebhyo namo adhipatibhyo namo rakshitribhyo nama ishubhyo nama ebhyo astu. Yoasmaan dveshti yam vayam dvishmastam vo jambhe dadhmah.
O prosperous god! you are present to our right in south. You save us from the livings organisms having no bones like snakes. And gives us knowledge through scholars. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again. Persons who have ill-desires for us and for whom we have ill-desires, we leave this matter on your capacity of justice.
Om prateechi digvaruno adhipatih pradaku rakshitannamishvah. Tebhyo namo adhipatibhyo namo rakshitribhyo nama ishubhyo nama ebhyo astu. Yoasmaan dveshti yam vayam dvishmastam vo jambhe dadhmah .

And you protect our life with food. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again.

U save our life wind by giving movement to planets and stars and giving movement to blood in every living organism with electricity. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again. Persons who have ill-desires for us and for whom we have ill-desires, we leave this matter on your capacity of justice.
Om dhruvadigvishnuradhipatih kalmashgreevo rakshita virudh ishwah. Tebhyo namo adhipatibhyo namo rakshitribhyo nama ishubhyo nama ebhyo astu. Yoasmaan dveshti yam vayam dvishmastam vo jambhe dadhmah.
O omnipresent god! You are master of universe while having presence in the countries present in the direction below us. You save our life winds with the help of green colored trees or climbers etc. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again. Persons who have ill-desires for us and for whom we have ill-desires, we leave this matter on your capacity of justice.
Om urdhva digbrahspatiradhipatih shvitro rakshita varshmishwah. Tebhyo namo adhipatibhyo namo rakshitribhyo nama ishubhyo nama ebhyo astu. Yoasmaan dveshti yam vayam dvishmastam vo jambhe dadhmah .
O great god! You are - present in the places of our upward direction, sublime, our master and protector. You irrigate our crops by raining so that the food, operator of our life, may grow. For your ownership, protection and granting life, O god, we salute you again and again. Persons who have ill-desires for us and for whom we have ill-desires, we leave this matter on your capacity of justice.

Sandhya(Prayers at dawn or dusk)

According to Vedas, our rishis have said that we should pray to god at the time of dawn and dusk regularly. Prayers are offered twice a day.
Actually every hymn of Vedas has a lot of meanings as said by Aadi Guru Brahma. But as we search in the translation of vedas by Swami Dayanand Saraswati, we get only one meaning for a hymn generally. Although meanings are found in two senses spiritual and materialistic for many hymns. Actually for understanding well, the meanings of vedic hymns, a very great guru is needed. Now-a-days such types of gurus are not available in this world. Although by deep search, some one hidden, may be found out.
Now I shall explain you hymns of  of vedic Sandhya(prayers). At present I am taking the following hymns which are related to the creation of this Universe-
Om ritancha satyanchabhi dhattapaso adhyajayata tato ratrajayata tatah samudro arnavah.
The god, by using a bit of his infinite capacity, constructed the present working Universe from the initial nature particles. And with his own common nature(property), he made source of water, the oceans.
Om samudra darnavadadhi samvatsaro ajayata ahoratrani vidadhadvishasya mishato vashee.
After creation of the ocean, he produced a motion so that day-night and twelve months of the year came to an existance.
Om surya chandramasau dhata yatha poorvamakalpayat divancha prithvim chantarikshamathau swah.
Similar to the previous existence of the Universe(previous Kalp), the god created the Sun, the Moon, stars and planets, Dyau(the whole space) and the earth etc.
Remaining parts of this sandhya will be published in parts in next posts respectively.
In this post I have introduced you about how this universe is made. These hymns are an important part of our vedic Sandhya in which we use to think about the beginning of the world regularly.
