......why pray....
vED
is the infinite amount of knowledge of the
sciences of entire creation and life.
vED
imparts to each and every creation the knowledge of 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 veDNgaa, 108
upniSH`D and 108
puraaAN, all
shaasTR, all versions of
raamaayAN and
mHaaBHaart, etc......the
entire corpus of this infinite amount of knowledge is known
collectively as SHRUti
and smRUti....
....We volunteers, at
Prajaapati Vishva Aashram Foundation (PVAF),
have a primary mandate to facilitate the empowering
of the entire humankind to acquire the knowledge in sciences of
vED
per se which will include
the the current sciences knowledge the humanity has re-acquired
in the last 500 years...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 of
vEDik
prayers 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....
....om

Backgrounder to
TODAY'S PRAYER
A PRAYER
EMPOWERS YOU WITH
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
Daivik (divine)
nimi`tt (agency or tool of
kARm) or shk`ti
(energy and power to perform
kARm).
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
3
guAN (any creation's
naturally and inherently activated disposition of
st`v
(good) guAN,
tms
(bad) guAN
along with the shk`ti
the activating these 2
guAN
called rjs guAN)
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 each and every kARm
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 receive inspiration as noted
above is a blessing given by
Creator bRH`m to every
creation. 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 mHaat`maa
gaandhijii was inspired to uphold basic human rights
in face of oppressive discrimination of human nationalistic,
political and socio-ecomomic world 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
RUshi and
muni 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
vEDik
time 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
lifestyle living mode
based on compliance to RUtt
and st`y.
Compliance to
RUtt
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
st`y means living life based
on what is the Truth of not hurting anybody anytime through
mns
(mind), vaach
(words) and
kARm (actions). Co-existing in
tittksh
mode of lifestyle and life living means to co-exist with every
one of the fellow creations respecting the fellow creation as it
is with its own characteristics given by
Creator bRH`m
and letting it lead its own life in its domain given by
Creator bRH`m.
titti`KSH
lifestyle living mode is to live and to let
live mutual without mutual interference, especially the negative
and destructive interference to one's chosen lifestyle living.
Inspiration is attained through
vaach (speech) and
kARm (action) both of
which have mutual feedback loop type of interactions with
mns
(mind). Both vaach
and kARm
are inspired by prayers to creator
bRH`m. Therefore, PVAF, in
continuing to implement its primary mandate of empowering and
inspiring the acquisition knowledge in all humans, presents
every day on this webpage a vaach empowering and
inspiring to 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......
