DURGA SUKTHAM

Real meaning of Durga suktham, not the external meaning as transliterated by linguists 

Divine Discourses begins

Day1

In life we encounter obstacles; these obstacles are the ones which stop us from being who we are. They interfere with signals of awareness of self, so we forget who we are and what is the intention for which we came, purpose of existence of forgotten becayuse of the all noise and ignore the signal

Suppose you are in a dark room and all kinds of things are in the room and you want to goto one point to another point in the room. What do you do ? if you just keep walking from one point to another point you need light if not u will keep falling down. If there is light and if u need to go from point  to another u wont figure out how to go , u will just go directly as there is light. So once u have light and u have sense of urgency to go to the destination u just turn the light on and go to the room and get it and you are complete. Suppose there is no light and u want to go somewhere, u wil only be stumbling, fall down, slowed down, get hurt, not sure if you are going right. Turning light on is the most important thing. If there is no awareness that there is light switch then what wil u do how wil u find ur way. This particular suktham is about turning that light on, first first light then turn it on. If you don’t know there is a light then u wil be in light  forever. Darkesness forever, will continue to be dark, day to day life is only for survival there is a bigger goal from going to one point to another. We forget that, let me move this pice move tht piece we forget there is a sense of urgency tht we have to reafch to the other point. This is wat happens wen there is no light. First you need to know there is a switch. This suktham helps u identify the light, it helps u to navigate darkness and reach the desination. First it tells there is light.

There is light within me, There is light within me, There is light within me – I am light

There is peace within me, There is peace within me, There is peace within me – I am peace

We always worry about problems in life and u worry about how to move pieces so u don’t stumbnle… but once u have light u don’t care about the pieces in the room u wil just move along without stumbling and move fast immdtly. There is a power of intent behind the creation , the power is not how to navigate and move pieces, its not purpose., the true purpose is navigating successfully. Not to move pieces so don’t stumble. Ganesha is about navigating through obstacles, how is ganesha related to durga suktham. Durga has 18 different thigns and fearsome and loving, but durga suktha is actually about light. Its not only about durga devi, cause the very first word on this suktham is jatha veda.

Jatha means birth, veda means to know. To know about your birth is jaatha veda, that is the purpose of life that’s what u want to succeed in. Jaatha veda also means fire, fire is light, u can get to know purpose of light only through light. Tht is this suktham, it is about light and how this light helps us navigate through life and obstacles. It’s like a boat given to u cross ocean of life, u don’t say let waves stop and I wil cross ocean, is anything doing that. Whether oceans has waves or not it doesn’t matter if u have a boat u will be able to drive and cross the ocean. U don’t wait for waves to stop cause if u wait u will be waiting forever.

Annamacharya says “kadaludi song” if u are waiting for waves to stop, it will never happen just like waves of mind wil never stop. Therefore wat u do – all the time till body is there, body has to get food, u have to work, if u think u wil quench wordly desires and then take care of spirituality then u wil never start on the journey of purpose of life. Therefore don’t wait for ur thirst to quench, don’t wait until kids are settled, not until ur bank accout has enough money, not until ur life is over, not until you get a big position or retire , so bhagawan says start early, drive slowly , reach safely. So start spirituality right now, there is no end to waiting for your responsibilities or desires to get over. When u put it on his feet he wil figure it out much better than we can plan. Doesn’t mean u should not feed your kids, you should not plan for them, just love them and serve them, we don’t own them. Don’t think I wil invest him and he wil take care of me in my later years. Nothing can be predicted, only god knows so place faith in him.

Only  shlokas but fully loaded with how to navigate through inner net. Ganesha is about Navigating through senses and darkness, once you are inside u cannot come out, u need an nocturnal animal which is mouse, which can direct without hitting on obstacles. Just like mouse is used to navigate in internet, like tht in this world it is the same mouse, vahana for ganesha is mouse which will take you without hitting obstalces. Ganesha Mouse is called “Anindhya”, ganesha is representative of clearing obstalces, durga suktham is about navigating through obstalces. Sometimes u may not have time to clear obstacles, durga suktham is about that, just navigating through obstacles. God is worshiped as fire in hindu, zoraster, symbol of fire for moses, god is light by jesus and bible, god is inner light in islam. Fire and light are essense of spirtitual essense of every single religion, Every religion invokes this element of fire and light within us to see clearly.

oṃ || jātave’dase sunavāma soma’ marātīyato nida’hāti veda’ḥ |
sa na’ḥ par-ṣadati’ durgāṇi viśvā’ nāveva sindhu’ṃ duritā‌உtyagniḥ ||

tāmagniva’rṇāṃ tapa’sā jvalantīṃ vai’rocanīṃ ka’rmaphaleṣu juṣṭā”m |
durgāṃ devīgṃ śara’ṇamahaṃ prapa’dye sutara’si tarase’ nama’ḥ ||

jātave’dase - oh lord of fire

sunavāma soma’ marātīyato nida’hāti veda’ḥ - am going to take medicinal creeper homa, and put it yagna and juice is used for drinking, taken by gods and goddesses, they love to have the juice of soma creeper, am going to squeeze this creeper and offer it to you. Why am I doing that , so that you can help me navigate through all the obstacles of this world.

Durgani – all kind of obstacls

sa na’ḥ par-ṣadati’ durgāṇi viśvā’ – protect me from all obstacles of world

How you wil help - nāveva sindhu’ṃ duritātyagniḥ - Just like a boat is used to cross ocean u will help me to cross all obstacles in this universe.

It’s the encrypted meaning of mantras that’s where beauty is. Not the exact words, the metaphors is the essense. Manase bhajare guru charanam, dustara bhava sagara tharanam – oh mind catch hold of the gurus feet. Same way jatha veda means fire, but here it means jatha means birth, vedase means one who teaches u the purpose of life. Once u learn the purpose of life you can remove the obstacles that are associated with your obstacles, the source is nothing but mind. Problems are inside the mind it is never in the world. Reaction reflection resound, that is the cause for everything. What is it causing me to suffer it is all within me, in the mind. Another meaning of SOMA is mind J so the shloka means I am going to take my mind , squeeze it , and offer it to you the juice of the mind. Then what happens – once u crush and squeeze ur mind u wont have any more obstacles. Mind is nothing but compilation of thoughts, mind is like a creeper, crush it with focus and become thoughtless, nidhahathi vedaha , offer it to know myself. How is it possible ? how can u be thoughtless? Thought is like a tool given to u, thought is like an instrument, for a particular task. Now ask a question, am I crazy to drive a car into my bedroom or crazy to write all the time, I only need to write only wen I need to  write. I need to drive car only when I want to go somewhere, same way when u want to think ahout something that time u think about it. Not always thinking something or other. What are u doing with ur thoughts, drive one thought over other, share it with others and entire world is thinking and thinking and becomes more more confusing. (for ex fb) like posting ur wifes bday on fb, is ther any point to tht, why do I need to know ur wifes bday. A thought is a subtle energy, we are wasting bountiful of energy , for no purpose , absoultutely useless, start saving that energy. Swamis quote on thoughts -To have bad thoughts Is innoble, to have good thoughts is noble, to be thoughtless is peace. Good thoughts associate with goodness around u, bad thoughts associate with bad, no thoughts associate with nothing or nobody. Jathavedase – am going to squeeze the mind towards knowing myself, vid means to know yourself, the one who knows who created me know why he created me I am going to know that purpose. Once u understand the purpose then u wont worry about obstalces cause now u know why u r here, what is the path , where am I going, I am going to cross by using the knowledge of self, the jyana and awareness wil help me navigate.

Why doesn’t God telling me directly whats my purpose, hes actually telling u deep inside, when u focus and if u can listen clearly u can listen.

Dhundhubyacha –listen to call of lord

Hananyacha – wake up

Dhrushnavecha – determined with clarity

Pravrushayacha – start walking. Now all other faculties are also awakened

Then dhoothayacha – prahithayacha – you become messenger, teaching, preaching and reaching… carry out mission of God.

Until u can listen to this call u wil be born again n again.

Budha said there is no getting out of this cycle, until u realize the purpse of the meaning of the purpose of your life. This light is called Durga. Etymological meaning . Durgaena gathum shathkathe ithi durgaha.

That true meaning is – That energy tht stops u from falling into darkness that is durga, so durga is light. Light burns away darkness, u can see clearly the obstacles, thus light will not make u fall, that energy is durga. I am seeking refuge in this effulgence, energy called durga.

Looks like - Agni varnam – brightness of fire,

Tapasa jantheem - burning of penance of knowing yourself

Vairaochaneem – one who carries energy of ultimate energy of parabraman

Karmaphaleshu jushtam – one who carries your own energies of your actions that is Durga. Your actions determines your next step. What actions shold I take to go near the light, towrdas the light.

First one is offer the essense of my mind. Then offer your actions and seek refuge. Now we pray please direct me towards this light. First offer essence of mind, then Energy of action

devīgṃ śara’ṇamahaṃ prapa’dye sutara’si tarase’ nama’ḥ ||

I am saluting to you oh supreme energy to help me cross the ocean.

How do we understand this durga – the fire or the light are never effected by anything around them, u offer something to fire, it wont ask or take the form of it, fire wil consume everything and make it ash. Human beign has poluuted all elemnts except fire. Air water space earth all are polluted but not agni. He cannot pollute it, fire is so pure it wont get affected by your doing of anything, fire is beyond name and form it will make it into ash. It will make that also fire and turn it into ash. Flower, food, wood, whatever thrown into fire wil become fire and finally become ash. So Durga is not affected by anything attached with our body mind intellect tht is offered into the fire.

She is Neeraga – no attachment But raga madhani – destroys attachement, she is nirlobha – no greed, lobhanashini –destroys greed. That fire tht destroys all the vices with me , that is Durga. The one tht stops me from falling into these vices, that is the light. I am seeking refuge that is durge, may it help me in avoiding the obstacles in my life.

We are so obsessed that we want to fix the obstacles, we go behind issues correcting and fixing things, that’s not our job, our only job is fixing ourselves. This is the essense of spirituality, its not about fixing others, its about correcting ur own self. We think God or some person or some situation is a huge obstacle tht I am falling, this becomes an obsession, but when light is clear enough to see you wont tumble in the obstacles. You can jump you can cross but you wont get stuck in the obstacle. Sri Rudram says sruthyaycha pathyaya kaatyacha sarasya cha – you will see Bushes troadable untroabdable places , boulders thickets, stones, but u don’t stop walking and crossing cause u can see clearly the other end. You wont get stuck in the obstacles, obstacles wil always be there, but u know ur destination u keep on going. Swami says just wear chapals and keep walking, the chapppals is guru. Follow the master, face the devil, fight til the end, finish the game. So instead of fixing jus wear chappals and keep going. Durga suktham tells us how to walk the path of spiritual life. When we come across this obstacles, ask for more light, we get more light , durga will give u that, u wil become stubborn to walk and u wil keep walking walking. Don’t figure how many companions are ther, he wil come with me, she wil come with me, what should I pack, don’t wait for anything, its time up just start walking. Light wil go away if u don’t walk, invoke the light and start walking.

Ganesha is about obstalces of ur sense, durga is about light of effulgence and energy

-- Video 2 –

God forgive me for mistakes, god give me this, god give me tht –  is low level of devotion

High level of devotion – god u and I are one , I want to b e like u, I want to be light and love, I want to be unconditional perpetual love and service, how can I be like you, how can I model and be like u, like a divine instrument, this atonement is the highest level of devotion

To be a jesus, moses, divine spark of god, maybe I be tht light and love , inorder to be tht, there are obstacles tht are coming thru, some are real obstances, some are assumes obstacles, some obstacles we create for ourselves, Imposed on by ourself. The first  level of obstacle we create ourself, some come to us from past life, due to some past action, we have to live thru tht karma over and over again tht is second type of obstacles. The third type of obstalces is when god gives as problems and says lets see how u come about it, tht is actually a mercy of god, to know our intent why we are created we have to come across this obstacle.

We say -- By prayer to god, by blessing of god, by grace of god, but we don’t usually say by mercy of god. Difference between grace and mercy, when we understand these words , we connect these lines in Sanskrit verses, these mantras. Most of us say we pray but when u know the meaning we connect to god.

Why do we need to pray to God. Ok what is prayer ?

Prayer is gratitude, tht is the right answer, prayer means thankfulness , prayer is not give me tht, I don’t have tht, no, prayer is getting up early and acknowledge that you are grateful to God so you are grateful that God has provided to you. That everything is happening because of God, that awareness is prayer. Do we even understand what we are asking god ? Dowe know the meaning of the prayer, do we know what you are asking, in fact if u realize what u r asking u may stop praying

Anyatha saranam naasthi thvameva saranam mama- if we understand this truly we wont pray this. Constantly we pray to boss, to government, to police etc etc. tht prayer means u wil only pray to the ONE, no matter what.

Durgama – may I cross the life with my refuge in gods surrender

This durga suktham is for tht

--------

it is actually - asmaan  svasthibi ‘hi – athi durgani viswa

”‌உsmāka’ṃ  is actually asmaakam means all of us

Meaning of above 3 mantras – 6 verses is the essence of life of moses. How can durga suktham be anything related to moses ? just like how crucifixcation of Christ is mentioned in purusha suktham, these are applicable all the time to eterentiy, as long human beings exist these verses are are applicable for all messiahs time to time.

Moses made this prayer in Mt Sinai – he went up the mountain he saw a fire, he sees the fire, climbs to that fire and there he saw the vision of God. God is light, light is God, form we are giving is our imagination, god is actually formless he is light and light only. Hence Judaism doesn’t worship god In form, god is worshiped as light only. He prayed liberate my people from poverty and hardships

Agne thvam paraya – oh fire of god, u make us cross across obstacles

Nayvo asmān-  u r ever eternal fresh and formless

Paraya make us cross across, thru this obstacles, tht are existing in this universe

Pooscha prthvi – let the mother earth be completely fertile

Bahula na urvi – let there be adundance on earth

Bhava thokaya thanaya shamyoho – let all my clan, relatives , my people all be in auspiciousness completely

This is wat moses prayed .

How is tht he is having attachment saying my people ? when we go thru creation, we have to go thru we love your creation and love and serve, tht is not attachment. Praying is let entire cosmos including mother earth be fertile and prosperous, abundance in cosmos, to protect your cosmos, this is all ur creation, I am loving and serving your creation, so we are serving him. There is no attachment in tht attitude, god is fire, god has no name and form, but creation came into existence through him, so creation is god, that is not attachment, tht is unconditional love and service. When we involve God like this this is what we see, first we see light, connecting thru god.

Another aspect is when God decides an individual to be messiah, to him there wil be given lot of obstacles by God.

First obstacle- the ones we create for ourselves, we absolutely know we are not supposed to do we stil do it, we create such our own obstacles. Obvious ones tht we should not fall into, for ex, god gave 10 commandments , thou shall not steal not commit adultery etc those are simple things, don’t create these obstacles for yourself. We are also commiting some karma today, right now we are planting a seed today, it wil come after weeks or months or years, maybe next janma, all this obstacles, durgani means obstacle wil have its impact sometime in future

Second obstacle- tht we have to go thru, unknowingly or knowingly we made some actions, karma, we have to go thru it cause we created it at some point of time. If we throw a ball at a wall it comes back, the harder u thru the harder it comes back. Which fool can complain that it wont come back? Karma is like tht it wil come back

Third obstacle – when we have to be messiah, not less or more, no one is bigger or better, all messiahs are same, they have to be perfect scultpture, they have to go thru certain obstacles given by god to prove. To prove they have potency including miracles

Greatest miracle of moses – red sea partition, when al people were there sea is flowing in complete spade, moses takes his staff and says part the sea if you want to save my people. Sea separated, all jews walked thru the red sea before the army could reach them.

Messiah wil be put into so miracle tht jesus or moses did , they are not about their demonstration of their attainment it was only for gods word happening thru them for the people not for themselves. God said he wil do things thru him for tht he has to be hollow and fill himself in divine light, that is the essense of Judaism. Unless a pot is completely empty u canot pour oil and lighten a lamp, when  u put holes in a that pot on top all holes will emit the same light. 

Vishwanino durgaha jadha…durithadhiparsi

Oh god I have no idea what obstacles wil exist, I know u wil  be the boat tht will take us against the sea, whatever obstacle tht is.

Pharaoh said take this people and get out of this land. God comes in moses dream and says  walk to red sea, but moses had the faith tht somehow god wil save him if he does his commands. Oh lord of light u have to take us thru the sea now, how are u going to do it, there are no boats, no ships but people have to cross ocean, pharaoh is coming behid with his army. He raised his staff and that is the meaning of Vishwanino durgaha jadha…durithadhiparsi

I am doing it for saving your people and your clan, not for me but for you, like athri maharishi I have to serve u, agne athri van – let me take care of all your people like ahtri maharishi did. Another reference is there in Hinduism called athri maharishi. Who is athri maharishi ? manthra of athri maharishi was samastha loka sukino bhavathu – tht was his only goal. May all beings in all the worlds be happy. He was chanting this all the time, that was his only manthra. Let me be like ahtri maharishi means I have no other goal but to pray for other beings happiness and peace.

Agne athrivan manase grunano asmakam bodhya vitha thanunam

Why is athri maharishi imporatn, what is the Big deal to refer to athri maharishi is because … next week we wil know.

Just  like in purusha suktham sage Marichi is refered here athri maharishi is mentioned.

These mantras are connected to the greatest of mantras – durga suktham is directly referring Judaism, we are worshipping fire fire fire all the time.

Pruthana jithagam sahamana mugra magnigum huvame parama sadhaasthaath

Story of moses continue here – u have to now cause the sea to spread so your people can cross over. We have to defeat the enemies who are coming behind us to kill us. I am now invoking u oh lord of fire, u now take care of enemies coming to destroy us. Let us have victor over them who are coming to destroy us. Thus prayed Moses.

Pruthana jithagam sahamana mugra magnigum huvame parama sadhaasthaath

Means…

From this place oh Lord

Invoking u oh lord of fire,

Make sure we are not destroyed by the enemies.

Who are enemies for us.  Our enemies are Bad qualities. To love and serve ur creation, protect me those qualities and persons who  are against this, these are not allowing me spread your love. What are the enemies within -- laziness, ,…

Day 3

This durga sukhtam is very small ..Each of these verse gives us the Power of discrimination which helps us connect to how we do dharma. To be free or to be bound, is the most imp thing in the world. When we take certain karma to do, some karmas free us some karma bind us, the intent behind the karma either frees u or binds u – so u cannot say how can I earn and live in world because the intent with which u do, by its virtue will free u or bind u.

Even in corporations today 2 things are most crucial Purity of intent, and unity in execution. Purity is what durga suktham is all about it purifies with what intent u r doing the work. If people connect to the intent behind the work then automatically they signup for your work, it becomes the entire groups work, even universes work. You don’t  have to even beg others to do this work, the purity wil automatically call people into the fold using its energy. Durga sukhtam is to purify the intent, even our instinct is purified. Now what is intent and instinct mean ? Instinct means something tht we do automatically. For ex: if there is a chicken tht came out of the egg, that little chicken perceives that it has not opened its eyes yet, becayse its still covered with mucus and liquid, but up there in the sky a eagle will come and swoop down the chicken as its food. But the moment chicken is born they run and hide under the wings of mother. That is instinct to save itself it has to save it, it is programmed automatically. Tht instinct of presence of fear or enemy is preporgrammed for the chicken. Last class we spoke about 3 obstacles, 1) obstacle that are god given, 2) two is obstacle created by ourselves by present karma (ten commandements we will know we shouldnt do but we still do, and then we suffer, if we prick our finger with a pin blood will come right away, if u plant a mango seed it wil come after a long time, so either ways the karma will manifest but you will not know when it will come but you are knowingly performing the karma), 3) obstacle we inherit by karma, the ones that we are sowing now and also done in previous janma.

If you fry the seed in pan, then will the tree come ? that is what en lightenment about. Durga sukhtan is about pointing what are lower obstalces to higher level of obstacles and highest level of obstacles. What we thing as obstacles are NOT obstacles to divine message. Jesus never thought , in the mountain in garden, people ar walking with torches, apostles of jesus said they are going to now take u and punish you, lets escape thru back route. But jesus said wait let me talk to god, he called god and divine will said don’t escape, ur annhiliation is going to upligt mass consciousness, your destination is to suffer for the sake for upliftment of the mass. His pain is therefore for others to see, not for jesus, because for him its divine obedience to divine will so there is no pain for him.

Pruthana jithagam sahamana mugra magnigum huvame parama sadhaasthaath

Now I am going to defeat all the enemies that are coming in my way to obey the command or divine will, then you are invoking the consciousness tht is mugh higher than the mind or intellect, from supreme light

Huvema – invoking

Then all points of pain from body, joints, mind etc are nothing in front of diving effulgence, this is the aspect of messiah. Wanting or desires or lower level of desires, lower level of obstacles. For car, for money for job for green card, u don’t ask this to god its nothing which u can do it urself.

Once swami asked a student, what have u studied, he said I did thi. He asked what job are u going to do, student says u tell what job u want me to do. Swami said u got the degree u aply for the job I am not job hunter. Because god is beyond tht. Initially u can ask these small things to god, do u tell ur CEO my desk is not clean can u send me a janitor. U don’t ask lower level things to ur boss. The things u can do u do it urself, imagine god is ceos of ceo. To god this sukhtham says I am going to defeat these enemies by invoking you as the effulgence. Those that obstruct me doing ur work am going to degfeat those , this Is what this sukhtam says

Prthna jithagam – defeat those enemies

How I am going to deafeat that enemies.. who are you…

By invoking YOU as the effulgence.. you are Sahamaanam – the most patient and compassionate one, ugram  - most supreme one, agnigum – effulgent one

Paramath sadhastha – one stitting on the top, ceo of ceos. Sitting on top of everything, king of kings, am going to invoke you, am going to take your conscious, so now nothing becomes an obstacle.

U just take the first step and all others steps will be easily done, he wil push u. the point is u have to raise that effulgence within u until that u keep saying look at my body I have this ache, I have this desire, I am caught up in lowest level of enregies, u have to push urself to highestlevel of energy.

Tomorrow I have Monday I have office, then Friday evening weekend, who wil take care – yes u have to take care of al this, but remember this is lower level difficulty, u r more than these tht affect body and mind. I am he, the supreme one, I am programmed within this body and mind, but I am not this body or mind. How do kids get tht much energy to keep running around, only one reason – the adults carry baggage but kids don’t. everytime u get old u add a bondage a carriage so its difficult to walk fast and cannot run, u can never fly. Tht is what we are doing with our lives. For kids they are not bound, the divine one is free but they are engaged in play cause they are not tired. God is doing more work than any one of us. God moves mountains by jus sitting in one place, ex Sathya sai baba, how is it possible, by only one sankalpa he does that. Theya re not the body and mind, but they are body and mind, we beging to understand and judge them using their body and mind cause of our limitation, when we invoke them as highest supreme conscious, u begin to see that u r programmed the same as them but its locked for u, u have to unlock and unleash that power.

Athri vann manasa grunana Asmakam bodhya vithitha thanunam

Athri is one of the 10 sons of brahma – brahma created them, prajapathis, one of them is mariachi (purusha suktham). Now we are talking about athri in durga sukhtam. Athri’s consort is very important. Wife of athri anasuya. Anasuya is the mother of trinity, dattatreya. She had the power to convert brahma Vishnu maheshwara into 3 small babies with her power of virtues. When rama undertakes journey, rama goes to athri anasuya and bharadwaja maharishi. Their power was so much they made the gods into children, that is their power of chastity, the only mantra athri maharishi has chanted is samastha loka sukino bhavanthu, let us be like him means let us pray like him.

Mahalaya paksha this is the most potent manthra, this is exactly when we need to control our desires because this mahalaya paksha is from pournami time to amasvasya, this time period is whewn human mind has to go into serious contemplation and control desires right from watching tv, just focus on divine conscious this time. This is the most potent manthra this season. This is the darkest period according to mythology where all demonic forces chanda munda mahashasura were extremely active. Rishis did great tapas so mother emerges and anhiliates each of these demonic forces. So this navarathri time is when mother goes to anihitate demons. But 15 days before this is mahalaya pakshya is when rishis were evoking mother. All their tapas were done on these days. Now mother wakes up and takes care of demonis during navathri, mother goes to work for these 9 days, invocation happened before this navarathri.

Now demons are not there they are all gone right, why shold we apply it to our daily life today? No… in daily living of individuals we have 2 months varsha rithu. rainy seasons, when sky is grey, enough light is not present, sun spends less time , day time is less, so human mind and intellect also goes into darknes,,. So when its cloudy and dark and grey its depressing, after 3 days u r wondering how to live here wat to do…when  monsoons are like tht, peoples mood and mind is spoilt, so olden days they undertake penance to sit in home and pray. Now there are not too much monsoon as humans have destroyed all seasons but we still have the impact. During rainy season to fall sunlight keeps decreasing, so photo period reducing so more darkness of dakshninaina, so people have to undertake more holy practices. 6 month of less light pm,ore holypractice is needed -- So Judaism starts with new year and then to Passover roshashana etc, in islam it starts with Ramadan period of contemplation etc , for hindus navarathri , then karthika masa praying to shiva then thai comes and more light and more work on field and interact with  mother nature then comes spring – this is how humans live outside, outer world.because u have no work outside u sit in front of tv or sit and argue within home about unnecasary and unreal scenarios, and fighintg and causing mind to go into pressure and depression. So u have to go into contemplation.

Prathnoshi kaidyo adhvereshu

Oh god of fire, effulgent one, the one that is extolled during the period of sacrifice and thru this sacrifice u increase the happiness that we have within us. How is fire increasing happiness, thru wat process ? what do u give in the fire, u give sacrifice, because if there is no fire there is nothing to sacrifice, so god of fire by sacrificing my vices into u I get more happiness. Human logic is how can I be happy if I sacrifice, only if I hang oto things I can be happy, my car, my money my caste, my family, tht identify is only happinesss according to human logic, but in sacrifice u give away, remind u don’t give up, but u give away ur bondage by sacrificing the fruit of action associated with that. When u do the work oh fire nf god I fry the seed of action so ther I sno more birth cause ther is no karma accumuilationm, that is happiness, hapuiness is freedom from bondage, swami says happiness is union with god, happiness is not from outside. Wjhen someone praises or compliments we are hapy, we are happier when someone compliments our children, when someonesays our children cannot sing we become sad, how can other child sing well but our child does not sing well, this is going thru ups and depends, it depends on external validation, only when validation stops and sacrfiex the validation and u only do karma swahaha, tht is true happiness. Rudraya idhannamama, I am not attached to it, this is not mine. If u r attached it is not sacrifice it is business transaction, god will be ok with business deal, he wil bring agreement, he wil read every line in the contract and u both sign, his lawyer is priest he advices on what to touch, wat not to touch how to do, thru third party god thru idol. When u don’t do business tranascaiton with god, u jus do for entire world for peace

Then he wont look for brahimn, and chating veda, he will not lookg if  u r women reading veda. Cause he wil look only at ur love because ur praying for world peace when u do tht when purity of intent is there then there is no rules no transactions required at all.

Oh u r the most eternal one, yet u r always looking new

U r eternal because ever since u came into eixstincve fire was there. He is always new cause hes not contaminated by accepting anything offered to fire. U can contaminate water space air earth but cannot contaminate fire, so he is new always, when u r like fire u r not tuouched by impurity, instead they get pure because of ur touch. When u have purity of thougt word action u r untaouchable u r like fire, be like fire, when u r fire when people come to u u r not contaminated at al. u listening to them u wil listen with empathy not sympathy. If u want to put garbage u tel them to put it into garbage , don’t listen to bad mouthing, don’t put it in me, there is a place for garbage, thus u can be pure u are not contaminated by them.

One phsycian YA asked -I become sad , I get their feel and pain – I am a physician we are seeing pain and suffering and death always

So yo have to be empathy not sympathy, u have to pray, u become the pleader not the leader. Pleader prays for others, the only way to cure and clean is thru god. Don’t become a leader, then u wil always be clean which is wat u want.

When we become like u fire we radiate like fire, fire wil heat and light only 2 qualities. U wil be burnt so u hav to be very careful, they are pure as fire u have to be careful as they are so pure. U maintain distance from fire, they wil give u warmth, but if u go close u got to be pure too, otherwise u wil be burnt. If anybody messes with fire they wil beburnt, but u can use fire, by being pure and warmth of love and light of wisdom. Then

oh god of illumination u r untouchable by any contamination no sin can touch you, and oh fire,you are all pervading, how fire spreads quickly, vishno means tht ability to expand. Why are we after you? Becayse of wat is put in the fire, wat we put in the fire, it becomes cloud, .. swami says

smoke generated, fire has ability to water evaporate, wen this water condenses it becomes cloud and tht condense becomes they come together to rain and it prduces food, that is wat u eat, becayse of wat u eat that u become. So is the manthra such is the cloud, so is the cloud such is the rain, so is the rain such is the food, so is the food such is the thought, so is the thought such is the habits, so is the habits such is the character, so is the character so is the community.

When we chant from bottom of navel we generate heat tht produces water vapor, so u shld say manthra loudly, proper diction and energy from bottom of navel, there is fire right there. So u shld open ur mouth and say loudly. God is the fire within you, this fire is the one that is taking 4 different types of frood and converting into 2 fndamental gases, oxygen and carbondioxide, we are thinking food is wat we eat, we are consuming all within us,  if u take lamp and put all oil it will be put off, so put only limited amount fire and have a wick. Don’t each pizza after pizza coke after coke, fire is extinguished because of this, and thus starts all diseases.

Nakasya prashtamabhi – u r the one by giving us this incredible food by food generated by sacrifieced in fire is the most pure food, now ther is so much of beautiful wisdom behind this, we have lost connection with this, we are thinking thes manthras are going on we start talking , we do texting, let priest do I wil collect theertham later, tht is wrong way u wont get anthing. U wil get punsihed, someone is reciting mantrha he wil only get fire. For ex Om Thushtaya namaha means abundance, but this guy says om dhushtaya namaha, means bad person. Ganesh has big ears and he can listen clearly.
