The performance of Gayatri Japa serves as a preliminary rite for self purification, bestows on individuals Atma Shakti and protects them from the malefic effects of sins and expiation. Gayatri mantra is supercharged with power and as my grandparents used to say,been prescribed to mankind under Vedic sanctions.
A fresh order of life begins to blossom for all persons from the moment of initiation into upanayana, the sacred thread (a) poonal ceremony. The most cardinal part of upanayana is Brahmaopadesa, which is initiation into uttering of the sacred Gayatri Mantra. Enriched with divine energy, Gayatri mantra serves as a faithful protector for all those who silently utter the mantra to themselves with sincerity. This mantra is a dynamic force and enjoins the brahmachari (bachelor), the grahasthas (house holder) and the vanaprastha (forest dweller), all to repeat this sanctified mantra at least 108 times a day....and i do it 108 times only on avani avattam...n hate myself for it...this divergence from rituals....
The Gayatri mantra, the most mighty of the Vedic mantras, is a prayer to the Sun god to alleviate one from all human sins, physical dissipation and to bestow knowledge, health and longevity. Gayatri is the mantra to be repeatedly recited in the morning before the Sun begins to rise, at noon when the Sun is in the apex and in the evening as the Sun sets, three times a day, what i've known as sandhyavardhanam....supposedly i neva do it...
Even after knowing every good thing about all these i still don follow any of these...and its pathetic n bad.. i want to follow them somehow my laziness is the prime cause my non indulgence in them...
any ways i believe in god n his powers...n trust him with his decisions of everyone's life...

machi.. hw do u convert this divine energy into electrical energy?? coz energy can never be created nor destroyed but camn be transformed from one form to another...
i wish i knew what to do ...
Everyone in the world sans upper caste hindus never do sandhyavandhanam!are they living a pitiable life??
Don't worry if u don't do any rituals!but i believe in a superpower!something above us exists(not in altitude)!
After going through theory of origin of universe to origin of 21 sept 2009,i firmly believe that there is superpower and a person who believes it and chants something in his language so that superpower helps him or he transfers his worries to superpower,so that he can go on with his life.
I realised this recently.before then,i was hard core atheist.But during crisis,you need faith and hope.And one can't find hope/faith without creating a thought that we have bright future destined by superpower.Really,it helps one to come out of crisis.Yes,i believe in GOD!:)
I did 1008 gayathri japam last year..but only 504 this year!:(
and it is natural that guys stop doing sandyavandhanam exactly 5-6 months after upanayanam!:D
@ srivatsan :
machi u said u did 1008 last yr den 504 now... thats what m asking ?? y does it reduce..or as u say after 5-6 months y do we stop practicing our rituals ??
is it we dont have faith..which is not so?? or is it the interest is over..and if its is the latter case, then y do we have this poonal ceremony ?? then its jus a ritual or formality .. correct ???
anyways .. long comment...
