Yah kal kal chal chal

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

   (A great prayer in Hindi  where   the  river Ganges  tells about herself.)

Yah kal kal  chal chal  bahthi,

Kya kahathi  ganga   dharaa

Yug yug   se bahtha aathaa,

Yah punya  pravah  hamara

Yah   punya  pravah  hamara

Flowing   making sound ”kal, kal, Chal,Chal”

What does this   river ganges say,

“I am flowing like this for eons and eons,

This blessed   flow is mine ,

This  blessed flow   is mine.”

Yis Dhara se  gul mil kar,

Veerom ki   Raah   bahi hai,

Yis Dhara ki kithni hi,

Rishiyon  ne  saran  grahi hai  ,

Yis Dhara  ki godhi mein ,

Khela  Ithihas Hamara,

Yah punya  pravah Hamara.”

“Mixed   and together   with this flow ,

The path of the  valorous warriors has been made,

It is in  this flow  that  has caught  ,

The surrender   of several sages,

And in the lap of this  flow,

Played   our  history ,

The blessed flow is mine.”

Yah aviral thap  ka phal hai ,

Yah punya pravah   prabal hai,

Shubha samskruthi ka parichayak,

Bharath ka   ya aanchal hai  ,

Hindu ke chir jeevan ka  ,

Maryadha  Dharm   SAhara,

Yah  punya pravah  hamara.

This is the result of ay rare  penance ,

This blessed   flow of mine is famous,

For it is the   attendant of  good   culture ,

And is the   corner of the  Sari   of India ,

And is the help  to respectable  Dharma,

In which   the Hindus   were  living  ,

The blessed flow  is mine.

Kya isko  rok sakenge,

Mitne vala  mit jaayen,

Kankad pathar  ki hasthi,

Kya badha  ban kar aayen,

DAh jayenge  giri parvath ,

Kampe bhoo mandal saraa,

Yah Punya pravah  Hamara

Hey ,would you be able to stop it  ,

Those who try to destroy it would get destroyed ,

So that the  torrential flow over small stones,

Would  become  as    great  difficulty  ,

And the mountains and hills would  get burnt,

And the entire    earth     would shiver,

This blessed flow   is mine.

The  first post-Vedic Hindu prayers

BY

P.R.Ramachander

        Most   of the great scholars agree    that the Vedic Gods   are  the powers governing  natural  phenomena in the world  .  The following Gods were  considered as important by the Vedas :Indra, Varuna  , Agni  , Rudra , Mithra , Vayu, Surya  , Vishnu  , Savithr, Pusan  , Usha  , Soma Asvins  , Maruths  , Viswadevas , Vasus  , Adithyas . Vasishta  , Brihaspathi  , Bhaga , Rta  , Rhibhus  , Heaven  , earth  Kapinjala  , Dandhikravan  Rati, Yama  , Manyu  , Purusha ,  Prajanya  Saraswathi   and Adithi  (http://hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/vedicgods.asp ).Some of the most important Gods of the Vedic pantheon were Indra , Vayu, Agni   , Mithra, Yama  , Bhaga  , Purusha and Rudra  .Lord Vishnu mentioned in the list  is a minor   God  and is one of the Adithyas. Some  believers identify Purusha , the Vedic God as Vishnu. There are eleven Rudras mentioned in  the Vedas .

     The Vedic deities were  worshipped    using Sukthas or through  Yagas  conducted to please them. The Fire God was the medium    who transferred   all the things    that were  offered   to the different  Gods. Most of the Sukthas   are Manthras   used in  Vedic Fire sacrifices.

     Possibly the earliest post Vedic  book   was the Ramayana  written and taught by Sage Valmiki  to his students  due to the encouragement   given to him by  Sage Narada. It is interesting to note   that , except for a mention of a temple like structure   in the banks of Ganges river by Sita   while she   was crossing Ganges river and   near Asoka Vana  by Hanuman, no temples are mentioned any where  in the  entire Ramayana .Even  when people were put in to extreme difficulty they were not seen visiting temples   and  praying   there to  Gods like Vishnu and Lord Shiva.  But penance(thapas)   to please Brahma, Shiva etc  are mentioned in various places.   But there is a prayer by Sita    addressed to  river Ganges while they were  going to  the  forest. Though I have translated   Ramayana verse by verse  , I was under  the impression  that  Adithya  Hrudayam (A prayer taught  by Sage Agasthya   to Lord Rama , so as to help him slay  Ravana ) was the only prayer   in Ramayana, But my friend Sri Ananthanarayanan  Vaidyanathan   pointed out to me   this is not so. He pointed out to me that there are several small prayers in Valmiki Ramayana. He also helped me to find   where they are  in. Some of them   are given below:-

 I.Prayer of Sita to river Ganga while they were crossing it on the way to the forest:-

Ayodhya Kanda -52^nd Sarga   Sloka 83-91 

1.Puthraa  dasarathasya   ayam  maha Rajasya Dheematha,

Nidhesaam Palayathu   enam   Gange   twad  Abhirakshitha.

Oh river Ganga, let  the son of Dasaratha   who is a great and wise king,

Who is obeying his order be under  your protection.

2.CHathur dasa hi varshaani   samagrani  uSya kanane  ,

Brathra saha maya   chaiva  puna pratyagamishyathi .

After   having lived  in the forest   for fourteen years ,

Along me and his brother , may he again return.

3.THathaa twam devi   subaghe  kshmena  punar Aagatha,

Yakshye pramuditha Gange  sarva Kama  Samrudhiye

Oh blessed  Goddess  Ganga, let us all return   safely  ,

And then with   all my desires fulfilled  I shall   worship you.

4. Thvam hi tripathaaga    devi brahma lokaan  Samikshase,

BHarya   cha udhadhi  raajasya  loke asmin sampradarshyase.

You who are with three branches     are seen in the Brahma loka also,

And  you are also seen in this    world as the wife of ocean God.

5.Saa thwam devi  namasyaami  prashamsami cha shobhane  ,

Prapthe rajye nara vyagra Shivena punar agathe,

6.Gavam satha sahasraani  vasthrani annam cha peshalam,

Brahmanebhya  pradasyaami   thava  priya chikeershaya.

Oh Charming  Goddess , I am saluting you  and also  showering praises on you,

After the kl lion in man returns  back and   takes over the kingdom ,

WE would offer  you  hundred thousand cows m,

And also feed the Brahmins    so that  it would please you.

6.suraaghaa  ta sareerena  mamsa  buttodanena cha  ,

Yakshe thwaam   prayathaa   Devi  purim  punar upagathaa.

6.Oh Goddess after reaching back the city  , I shall worship you  ,

With thousand pots of liquor  , meat and with cooked rice.

7. Yaani   thaw thera vasini  daivathanu    cha santhi hi,

Tanni sarvaan   yakshyaami   theerthani  aayathanamicha.

7.I would also worship all the Gods who are in your banks,

AS well as sacred   spots   and sanctuaries.

8. Punareva  Maha bahu   maya bharathara   cha  SAmagatha,

Ayodhyam   Vana vaasaathu  pravishta vanaghi   Anaghe.

8.Oh Goddess   without any faults , may the sinless mighty  Rama,

Enter  back the city  after kl living in the forest along with me and his brother.

  In this prayer we  see many similarities   of our prayer   to Gods with several requests and later   tell Him/Her that   we would  offer  some things if our wishes are fulfilled.Also this is a prayer to river Ganges (A part of the pan theistic objects   worshipped   in Vedas).

II . Prayer by Hanuman

      This is a one Sloka prayer  occurs in Sundara  Kanda of Ramayana  in the thirteeth   chapter  (sloka63)

Hanuman  wanders all over  Lanka  in search of   Sita and becomes disappointed  in not able to find her out. Then he sees Asoka Vana    and  hope of  finding Sita   germinates  in his mind  .Then he prays:-

13.63

13.63 Namoshtu  RamayasalakshmanayadEvyai cha thasyai janakathmajaya,

Namoshtu  rudrendrayamanilebhyo Namosthu Chandrarka Maruth ganebhyo.

I salute  Rama  along with Lakshmana and also offer my salute  to the daughter  of Janaka,

I also salute Rudra , Indra, Yama  , Fire God  , moon,  sun God   and the Maruth ganas*

     *They are  the seven rain storms   and sons of Vedic Gods Rudra and Prisini, They ride on olden chariots.

   Rama , Lakshmana   and Sita were  the masters of Hanuman in this case . He was only saluting them in the first line   and then late   he salutes several Vedic Gods   which were the part of nature.

III. Sundara Kandam ( Chapter  13-69-71)  Prayer  by Hanuman  to Help Vedic Gods   to  help him find Sita in Asoka Vana

1.Brahma Swayambhur  Bhagawan  devaaschaiva disanthu may  ,

Sidhim agnischa  Vayuscha puru hoothascha vajra bruth.

1.Let   God  Brahma   who was born by himself and all other devas,

Fire god, Wind God, Indra  holding the Vajra give me  success  in my   attempt.

2.Varuna Pasa Hasthascha, Soma aadhithyou Thadaiva cha,

Aswinou   cha  Mahath manou Marutha, Sarva   yeva cha.

3.Sidhim sarvaani  bhoothani  Bhoothanam chaiva ya prabhu,

Dasyanthi   mama  ye chanye  hyadrushtaa  padhi gochara.

2.Let Varuna holding  the noose , Moon   and Sun,

The Aswini Devas who are great , Maruths, Lord Shiva  the lord of all Bhoothas,

All Bhoothas , All devas , All invisible beings  as well as   all those who are  in between,

Grant me the  power    to  do the job in a complete way.

IV .Sundara Kandam   ( chapter 42 :33-37)

      After  taking leave of Sita  , Lord G Hanuman decides   to teach a lesson to Ravana by destroying  Asoka Vana  .When the Rakshasis   guarding   Asoka Vana   complain to Ravana he sent a very big army to attack  Hanuman. Then these five slokas were told by him. Though classified as a prayer  , they are not prayer but   announcement of Hanuman about his prowess and back ground.

Sri Jaya  Panchakam

By

Hanuman

(These five slokas  are told  by Hanuman in the Sundara  Kanda of Valmiki Ramayana  (Chapter 42-33-37). SEngalipuram Anantha Rama Deekshithar   says that  if these are  chanted at time of Vivaha Nischayathartham , when we are troubled by debts, when we are fighting case in courts and in times of danger , we are sure to emerge victorious,.)

1.Jayathyathi balo ramo  , Lakshmanascha maha bala,

Raja  JayathiSugreevo  Ragahvenabhi palitha

1.The very strong Rama wins over all and so does the  very strong  Lakshmana,

And the king Sugreeva  protected   by   Raghava   also wins.

2.Dasoham kosalendrasya  Ramasya  klishta  karmana,

Hanumaan SAthru sainyaanaam  nihanthaa  Maruthathmaja.

2.Hanman, the son of wind God    who is  the destroyer of enemy army  ,

Is the slave  of Rama  , the  king of Kosala  who completes  every job  effortlessly.

3.Na Ravana sahasram may yudheprathibalam   bhaveth,

Silabhisthu   praharatha padapaischa   sahasrasa.

3.Even thousand Ravanas  would not be able to fight  in war with me,

Who  strikes every one   with thousands  of stones and trees.

4.Ardhayithwa   pureem  Lankaam  Abhivadhya   cha Maithileem,

Samrudhartho  gamishyami  mishathaam  Sarva  rakshasaam.

After  shaking the city  of Lanka  and after   saluting  Lady Sita,

I am returning   with contentment, when all Rakshasas are  staring at me.

5.Thasya  SAnnadha   sabdhena  the abhavan  Bhaya  Sankithaa,

Dadhruscha  Hanoomantham Sandhyaa megha mivonnatham.

5.Hearing  that herald of victory  of Hanuman , those Rakshasas  stood  greatly scared,

And they  saw Hanuman  rising  high in the sky  like the  cloud    at dawn.

V.Sundara Kanda (chapter 43  -slokas  26-30)   -Prayer by Sita   addressed to the  Fire God

     The Rakshasis come and  inform Sita how  the tail of the monkey which   tried  to help her , was set fire  .Sita prays  the fire God to be  cool to Hanuman:-

1.Mangalabhimukhi thasya   saa  thadaaseen maha kape ,

Upadasthe  Visalakshi   prayathaa  havya vahanam.

1.That broad eyed lady  wanting   to have  auspicious safety   to the great monkey,

Saluted and with great devotion  prayed  the  fire  God.

2.Yadyasthi pathi susruoosha , yadhyyasthi   charitham thapa,

Yadya chasthya  yeka pathneethwam   , Seetho bhava  Hanumatha.

2.If I have done service to my husband  properly,

If I have done   observing  of penance  in a proper manner ,

If  I have   had   relations  only with one husband, be cool to Hanuman.

3.yadhi Kinchid anukrosa  thasya  mayyasthi dheematha,

Yadhi vaa  BHagyasesho  may  , seethe bhava  Hanumatha.

3.If that   Great one  has  even little   of mercy   towards me,

And If I have   atleast a small   amount  of luck, be cool to Hanuman.

4.Yadhi maam vrutha sampannam  thath samagama  lalasaam,

Sa vijaanaathi  Dharmathma seethe bhava  Hanumatha.

If that  follower of Dharma knows me    who is full of virtue  ,

To be only  interested in meeting with him  , be cool to Hanuman.

5.Yadhi maam  Tharayedharya Sugreeva   sathya  sangara ,

Asmad dukhaan maha bahu , seethe bhava  Hanumatha.

If The lover of Truth  and worshipful Sugreeva   who has   long hands ,

Would make   me cross   this state of sorrow  , be cool to Hanuman.

  This again is not a normal prayer  . For she does not praise fire God   and says that  she has several  virtues and because of that  Fire God should be cool to Hanuman. Again the prayer is addressed to a part of nature.

VI. Yudha Kandam ( Chapter 105)

  This is the longest prayer  in Vamiki Ramayana . Rama finds it difficult to kill Ravana due to several boons that  he has received.  The devas depute sage Agasthya   to teach Rama a prayer   which would help Rama  in killing Ravana . Sage Agasthya   then teaches  this great prayer addressed to the Sun God:-

Adithya Hrudayam  (Yudha  Kandam –Chapter 105)

(The heart o the Sun God)

Asya sree adithya hrudaya sthothra maha manthasya Agasthyo bhagawan rishi, anushtup chanda, Sree Adithyathma Soorya narayano devatha= sarva jaya sidhyarthe jape viniyoga

The sage for Adithya Hrudaya stotras is Sage Agasthya, the meter is anushtup and the presiding deity is Soorya Narayana who is the heart of Adithya.

Adha dyanam:-
Jayathu jayathu soorya saptha lokaika deepam,
Kirana samitha papam klesa dukhasya nasam,
Aruna nigama gamyam chadhi adithya moorthim,
Sakala bhuvana vandhyam, bhaskaram tham namami

Now prayer:-
Victory, Oh victory to the Sun god,

Hanuman

Translated  by

P.R.Ramachander

(These five slokas  are told  by Hanuman in the Sundara  Kanda of Valmiki Ramayana  (Chapter 42-33-37). SEngalipuram Anantha Rama Deekshithar   says that  if these are  chanted at time of Vivaha Nischayathartham , when we are troubled by debts, when we are fighting case in courts and in times of danger , we are sure to emerge victorious,.)

1.Jayathyathi balo ramo  , Lakshmanascha maha bala,

Raja  JayathiSugreevo  Ragahvenabhi palitha

1.The very strong Rama wins over all and so does the  very strong  Lakshmana,

And the king Sugreeva  protected   by   Raghava   also wins.

2.Dasoham kosalendrasya  Ramasya  klishta  karmana,

Hanumaan SAthru sainyaanaam  nihanthaa  Maruthathmaja.

2.Hanman, the son of wind God    who is  the destroyer of enemy army  ,

Is the slave  of Rama  , the  king of Kosala  who completes  every job  effortlessly.

3.Na Ravana sahasram may yudheprathibalam   bhaveth,

Silabhisthu   praharatha padapaischa   sahasrasa.

3.Even thousand Ravanas  would not be able to fight  in war with me,

Who  strikes every one   with thousands  of stones and trees.

4.Ardhayithwa   pureem  Lankaam  Abhivadhya   cha Maithileem,

Samrudhartho  gamishyami  mishathaam  Sarva  rakshasaam.

After  shaking the city  of Lanka  and after   saluting  Lady Sita,

I am returning   with contentment, when all Rakshasas are  staring at me.

5.Thasya  SAnnadha   sabdhena  the abhavan  Bhaya  Sankithaa,

Dadhruscha  Hanoomantham Sandhyaa megha mivonnatham.

5.Hearing  that herald of victory  of Hanuman , those Rakshasas  stood  greatly scared,

And they  saw Hanuman  rising  high in the sky  like the  cloud    at dawn

Achieve all that you want by chanting specific Gayatri manthras addressed to several Gods

Achieve   all that you want  by  chanting  specific  Gayatri manthras   addressed to several Gods

By

P.R.Ramachander

Gayatri manthra  was given to the world by sage Kaushika   and seeing the benefits the world received from it.  He was called    sage Viswamithra(the friend of the world)  .  After  this several sages     after meditation wrote Gayathri manthras    addressed to several Gods for achieving  specific objectives.  A large number of such Gayathri manthra collection    and the benefit  which is accrued  by chanting them was once collected  by  BHarani Kumar   and published by  Kumudham Bhakthi  .  These are short manthras and need to be repeated 108   times daily for a long period of time   for achieving the objectives mentioned. It is better   to learn  them  from a Guru. If you do  not get a Guru , Write the Manthra on a paper  , keep it before the drawing or idol of the  God mentioned , meditate on that God  and mentally make that  God as  the Guru teaching the Manthra  to  you  Then daily before chanting the manthra  , meditate  on that God  and start the chant .It is believed that  the manthra   should be inwardly chanted   and your lips should not move. Here is the list of the desires which are  likely to be fulfilled (some amount of repetition is there ). Go through it and identify the Gayathri manthra   which is most suitable for your need from  http://stotrarathna.blogspot.in/2016/02/gayatri-manthras-addressed-to-several.html
