VEDIC PRAYER

Translation by Dr. Sudhir Anand

Om Hiranyagarbhah samavartataagray bhootasya jätäh pati eka äseet.

Sa dadhär prithvim dyämutamäm kasmai deväya havishä vidhema

(Yajur Veda 13: 4).

This mantra states that God is the Creator and sustainer of all stars and galaxies. God has always existed, He even before the creation of the universe. He alone is the Master of all living beings. God alone is the most prominent entity in the universe. The literal meaning of word Hiranyagarbhah in colloquial Sanskrit is the womb of luminous things and lustrous bodies. In context of God, at the physical level it means the Creator who makes shining stars and galaxies from the primordial physical matter called Prakriti and at the spiritual level it means God the Source of all true knowledge that illuminates our mind and soul.

Message from President of Arya Pratinidhi Sabha America, Sh. Dev Mahajan

Arya Pratinidhi Sabha America, on behalf of all the Samajs in North America, extends its deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to the friends and families of the victims of these cowardly, gruesome and mindless terror attacks in Mumbai, India. We share the distress and grief of the families of the departed souls. It is hard to believe in today's civilized world that there are such barbaric people who have no value of human life & could be brain washed to this extent. It is clear that Pakistan has become the breeding ground for the radical Islamic groups.  [Read More]
 

Opinion: Failure of Indian Intelligence
by Kewal Ahluwalia
Failure Almost a dozen state police units and intelligence agencies were tracking down terrorist groups across India for the past two years but missed to detect the activities of the men who were involved in the Mumbai terror attack. Though there were reports, based mainly on the interrogation of terrorists arrested in the recent past, about Mumbai being the next target, there were no specific leads about how the terrorists will strike. It has without any doubt active hands of Inter Services Intelligence of Pakistan. This is the biggest operation conducted thus far which was very well planned, sophisticated and it shows complete failure of the Indian intelligence. They came in a boat, they jumped in smaller boats, walked into the hotel lobbies and the rest we all know. [Read More]
