SURYAKSHETRA 57
What this little man speaks………………………………………………
Quote: A man’s dreams are an index to his greatness.
The usual practice in the traditional system to perform YAGNA is possible by generating Agni – the sacred fire by rubbing (or Agni madhan as is being called) two dry wooden sticks from the Holy Aswatha Tree. For this an apparatus is made in a convenient manner for use by the Ritviks- the pundits who are well versed with the vedic systems and who are involved in performing YAGNA. When SRI RUDRA KAMYAARCHANA VIDHI specifies that ABHISHEK is to be performed by using certain material. It is said that each item used as specified in Vedic order of life, is capable of granting certain material benefits for the human beings. This is an authorized text from ancient times and mostly it is proved to be of material use for many. Perhaps, it may be the reason that millions of people particularly HINDUs are preferring to go by the traditional system. Normally we do not like to follow certain systems even today, much worse the case years ago for the reason, old generations did not allow certain systems to come into their way of life unless they are proved to be useful and logically it reminds me that they are satisfied and are benefited and that is the reason millions have accepted. It may take some more time to find out a scientific base for the traditional acts.
Well, back to the Yagna-I enjoyed using much material as described in the system and they include-1)Prickly Chaff Flower,
2) Phyllanthus Emobhica, 3) Chebulic Myrobulam, 4) Camphus, 5) Musk, 6) Boiled Rice, 7) Asomatica, 8) Poa Ciliaris, 9) Crocus Sativus, 10) Cynodon Dcetu;pn, 11) Bhari Calcuivs, 12) Acacia Mimosa, 13) Santalum Album, 14) Prosopis Spicigera, 15) Mace, 16) Myristica Fragraus Nutomey, 17) Calotropis Jrgantia, 18) Copper, 19) Ocumum Sanctum, 20) Cypurus Rantundoa, 21) White Khus Khus, 22) Glucase, 23) Cinuamon, 24) Orientale, 25) Phyllathus Nirute, 26) Corals, 27) Curcuma Loonga, 28) Echites Frutescens, 29) Gold, 30) Acgle Narmalas Alarge, 31) Piper Nigrum, 32) Pearls, 33) Ficus Glomerate Alarge,34) Butea Frondasa, 35) Silver, 36) Cary Ophyllus, 37) Andropogen Murioatus, 38) Carpus and many such sacred material for which I do not get equivalent botanical or other name.
It may be my belief or it may be the belief of millions of Indians – I strongly feel that it is not mere blind belief, as our fore fathers and great sages did not accept blindly anything. For logical example, when we go to a remote village, normally a new entrants habits behaviour and movements are totally tested before the villagers start believing. Similar should have been the case with the traditional Hindu rituals, they must have tested all this enough and satisfied and that should have been the reason why it is percolated down. Modern science is just making experiments to satisfy THEMSELVES to what extent the traditional systems are worthy.
In any country; for any race and for any religion the beliefs are based on their past experiences and experiments only and IT IS A FACT FOREVER whether some one agrees or otherwise. This does not mean that I go only and only on faith. I look forward many a times to what degree my faith is reasonable and LOGICAL, for the reason only LOGIC that is TARKA can take us close to the realities and values.
If you all agree with me, I can dare say that a scientist arrived to USA from India shall have all fears to eat any vegetable or fruit of USA(not commonly available in India or in USA) unless some one guarantees him that it is good and not harmful to the body. This goes to prove that even a modern scientist has to believe the experience of some one and proceed further. Thus in the similar circumstances, I can conveniently conclude that for all Indian systems, there is a strong base with reason associated with belief. Hence the traditional systems and rituals are all accepted beliefs backed by experience for the use and benefit of the Society, whether or not the modern scientist agree for the same.
Quotes: The great of the society is, its individual character
Fate is the perfume of the heroic deeds.
When all else is lost, the future still remains.
I shall be back again soon with certain other works.
