why pray
veD is the knowledge
of the entire creation. veD imparts
to each and every creation how creation is created, how it is sustained after
creation, the purpose of each creation, how each creation has to co-exist with
all other creations and the grand scheme and meaning of this creation. In this
process of imparting knowledge veD
also subtly informs about our creator bRH`m and creator bRH`m's relationship with
all creations singly and collectively.
To get all knowledge through the study of veD is a monumental task ...which could not possibly be completed in one
life time...in a life time most of us can get only a degree in one field of
science or arts or commerce or medicine or engineering....to get all the
knowledge of ved will take infinite years as the knowledge itself is
infinite....
.....But then our creator bRH`m, knowing our limitation of the
life cycles, has given us a small life manual in which the basics of creations,
its processes, its relationships and its purpose are outlined in about 700 to
750 aphorism like messages of few words at a time......this manual of life is
has been given a name "bhgvD giitaa"....Similarly
for those who desire to have detailed knowledge veD
has 18 viD`yaa. A viD`yaa
is a specific knowledge base similar to what we currently know as engineering,
medicine, law, mathematics, astronomy, astrology, grammar......and all the
viDyaa is in 4 veD, 6 veDNg aa,
108 upniSH`D and 108
puraaANo, etc......
....We volunteers, at Prajaapati Vishva Aashram
Foundation, have a primary mandate to facilitate
the entire humankind to acquire
knowledge per se...we believe that studying any part of veD is a
good start on this path to acquire knowledge...so from today let us begin that
study...om tt st...
At present on this planet earth we have various faith systems
leading to a Creator...each faith systems has its own name and also a name for
whatever it believes as a Creator....but surprisingly all faith systems have one
message to all its follower...knowledge
shall set you free....let us then get this knowledge....may the
Creator bless us to walk on this path no matter how we stumble, fall or
sometimes give up....but we are continually blessed by our Creator to have the
strength and the means to get up once more and keep walking....in the pursuit of
knowledge....
Each message in any text in all
18 viDyaa is
called a s`lok. Each s`lok is an answer to a prayer made for
knowledge...as if the Creator knew that we will ask the question in the form of
a prayer ....and our Creator has already given the answers to our prayers in
all viD`yaa.......
One prays to recieve inspiration and one receives inspirations
to pray......it is always a repeated cycle....

Backgrounder To TODAY'S
PRAYER
DAILY INSPIRATION TO
PROGRESS AND PROSPER
The word inspiration is
derived from the word inspire. The word
inspire means to breathe or to infuse life by breathing. Breathing though vital
is not enough in life. So to inspire also means to influence, to move, to guide
by vaach (speech) or kARm
(action) through Daeevik (divine)
nimi`tt
(agency) or shk`ti (power).
Inspiring thus causes jivan
(life) to be animated, enlivened, exalted to perform normal and extraordinary karma
in one's daily life.
Inspiring encourages one one's buDH`DHi
(intellect) and guno which causes
emotions to be encouraged, impelled and motivated to do whatever one wishes in
life.
The inspiring happens through infusing or introducing in one's mns
(mind) or communicating with one's aat`maa
(soul) that arouses and provokes one to perform karma in life.
This inspiring further creates occasion, incitement and
fomentation in life. Of these fomentation is vital as it creates nursing of life
and kARm to promote growth in life.
To recieve inspiration as noted above is a blessing given by our
creator brhmah to everyone. But one must be ready and open to receive this
blessing from one's creator.
Through inspiration major inventions have been created. Great
writing of prose and poetry has occurred through inspiration. Men such as gaandhiji
was inspired to uphold basic human rights in face of oppressive discrimination
of human systems. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were inspired
to abolish slavery in USA. The third President of USA, Thomas Jefferson,
was inspired to say one does not need a "religious" institution to believe
in God. Mao was inspired to liberate a billion Chinese from kingly
oppression. Through inspiration Albert Einstein could clearly see the
Principle of Relativity hidden in the 400 years of science growth preceding his
birth and thus led science to a new path of harnessing energy from atoms, adding
the dimension of time and space to our physical three dimensional perception,
concept of the working laws of this universe and quantum mechanics to understand
working of nature at the fundamental levels of creation which can not be seen or
observed or understood with normal science of the physical world which can be
seen.
All the RUshio and munio
of vedik lifestyles were inspired to reveal to humanity all the knowledge of
creation, sustenance of creation and absorption of creation back into the
sub-creators and ultimately into the creator. This knowledge is called veD
which has been forgotten due to the effect of present era of kli-yug.
This ved is being revived and remembered through what we call current
science.
Our creator bRH`m
inspires us continuously when we pray. Our parents inspires us
continuously when we stay continually connected with them and serve them with
respect, reverence and gratitude. Our teachers inspire us continuously
when we offer ourselves as students who wish to have continual, uninterrupted
and unending desire to learn. Our spouses inspire us continuously when we
stay connected to them continually for mutual respect, reverence, gratitude,
love and care and upholding gRUHsth-aaSRm
through our married life. Our children inspire us continuously when we
stay continually connected to them for parenting and friendship for their
nurturing and guiding their life growth.
Everyone in the entire creation inspires us if we continually
co-exists in titti`KSH
mode based on compliance to RUtt and
st`y. Compliance to ritt
means living live by abiding by the universal laws which sustains all
creation based on DHARm which is the
operating and controlling system of creation to sustain itself. Compliance to
satya means living life based on what is truth of not hurting anybody
anytime through thoughts words and karma (actions). Co-existing in tittksh
mode means to co-exist with everyone of the fellow creations respecting the
fellow creation as it is with its own characteristics given by creator brhmah
and letting it lead its own life in its domain given by creator brhmah.
tittksh mode is to live and to let live mutual without mutual
interference.
Inspiration is attained through vaach
(speech) and kARm (action). Both
vaach and kARm are inspired by prayers to our
creator bRH`m.
Therefore, PVAF, in continuing to implement its mandate of inspiring knowledge
in all humans presents every day on this web page a vaach or a
kARm or
prayer which will inspire every one to pray and pray to get inspired.....All
this to have a happy today, happier tomorrow and future of progress, prosperity
and well-being......
