VEDIC PRAYER

Translation by Dr. Sudhir Anand

Om yayna dyuorugrä prithivi cha drdhä yayna svah stabhitam yayna näkah.

Yo antarikshay rajaso vimänah kasmai deväyay havishä vidhayma.

The mantra is a prayer to God who is addressed as the Sustainer and Principal Support of the whole universe. It is God who creates and maintains the universe and its components such as the stars, galaxies and space. His creations like the sun give us not only light to see but also heat to keep warm. The mantra also reminds us that God’s universe is in constant motion and undergoing continuous change. We too, then, must remain active and forever try to improve ourselves. Moreover, God is Supreme Bliss and by only knowing Him, one moves away from miseries or unhappiness in life and finds liberation and bliss in one’s own life. [Read More]

“WHAT LED MAHARISHI DAYANAND SARASWATI TO FORM ARYA SAMAJ"

By Dr. Ravi Srivastav

Before we ponder over the question “What led Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati to form an Arya Samaj?” it is necessary to look closely at the chronological sequences of events that led to the act of foundation. As a matter of fact the establishment of the Arya Samaj was almost a reaction and consequences to the conditions prevailing at the time of advent of Swamiji. Swamiji saw around him millions of people, weak, ignorant of their sad plight, ignorant of their heritage, helpless, without strength or determination to help themselves and ignorant of their potential strength. Some others, proud, parasitical, living in Luxury and affluence, unmindful of the surrounding misery and indigence which were daily advancing to engulf them; unmindful of their responsibilities and liabilities.

By Kewal Ahluwalia

The bloody and the most ghastly event of Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar took place on the Vaisakhi day on April 13th 1919, when thousands of people from all over India, gathered in the Jallianwala Bagh near Golden Temple in Amritsar to celebrate a more than two hundred years old annual festival, for the new harvest and Sikh religious new year.

SHRADHANJALI

Mrs. Shanti Devi Saberwal (mother of Mrs. Jyoti Gandhi) took her last breath peacefully listening Sandhya and Havan Mantras by her beloved grandson Vikram on March 9, 2009 at the home of her son-in-law and daughter, Dr. Rajinder and Jyoti Gandhi in Saddle River, New Jersey. She would have celebrated her 94th birthday on March 30th. She was the role model of the generation of true Aryan. In her daily routing she never missed Sandhya & Havan.
