It is a great blessing for the Veda dhvani to pervade the mind and body. These
are the set of tapes that would be most important to every one of the temples in
North America for use in their daily worship of the Veda Purushan . The tireless
effort to produce these high quality tapes with the particpation of GanapAtis
trained in the traditional manner is beyond imagination . I thank Sriman
KrishNan and his fellow trustees for undertaking this challenge of an immense
dimension and completing it .
I will post a few articles on the VedAs and the powerful meaning of some of the
Rks and manthrAs as I continue with the journey of listening to these tapes.
Some six years ago, I studied all the four samhithAs in the text form without the
benefit of listening to them in the recited form. These tapes will help to fulfil my
life's ambition of listening to them in their entirety and be linked to the timeless
tract travelled by our ancient rishis and AchaaryAs. I will start with Atharva
Vedam and then go onto Rig Veda SamhithA.
SaunakA, the celebrated grahasthA approached Sage Angiras and asked humbly:
"O Illustrious sage! kasminnu BhagavO vig~nyAthE sarvamidham vig~nAtham
bhavathee ? (What is that by the knowing of which all this becomes known?)
Sage Angiras explained further that the lower knowledge is the Rig Veda, the
Yajur VedA, the Saama VedA and Atharva VedA, SikshA (phonetics), kalpA
(rituals), vyAkarNam (grammer), NirukthA (etymology), cchandas (metre) and
JyOthisham (astronomy); and the higher knowledge is that by which the
imperishable Brahman is attained.
Sage Angiras said:" dhvE vidhyE vEdhithavyE ithi ha sma yadh BrahmavidhO
vadanthi ParA chaivAparA cha "AparA are the four VedAs and their six angAs
to understand the nature of DharmA and the ParA is the knowledge about the
imperishable (akshaya) Brahman, which is the embodiment of DharmA. That
omniscient, Omnipotent, all merciful Brahman has been defined as the
source/origin, sustenance and dissolution of this multifaceted world according
to the second Brahma sUthrA (JanmAdhyasya yatha:). That Brahman is
cognized only through the scriptures, the sources of authoritative knowledge
about Brahman (Saasthra yOnithvAth: Brahma-sUthram 1.3).The next Brahma
sUtram goes on to point out that Brahman is the main purport of all Vedic and
upanishadic texts (tatthu samanvayAth). Thus one can not dismiss the VedAs
quickly as apara vidhyA and jump on to Para vidhyA. Rigorous study of the
VedAs reveal to us the appproach to Brahman, the para VidhyA, the ultimate
goal for us all.
All these four are necessary to understand true DharmA or righteous duty from
different angles. Thus an inquiry in to them through the study of the VedAs
becomes an essential pre-requisite in one's journey towards the comprehension
of Brahman (para VidhyA). The authority of the VedAs for us is supreme and
final and hence a proper understanding of them with the help of a qualified
AchAryA sets us on a safe footing to comprehend Brahman and achieve the
parama purushArtham of Moksham. Our tradition is therefore called Vaidhikam
or the one based on the authoritativeness of the VedAs.
Rig, Yajur, Saama and Atharva samhithAs constitute the four VedA samhithAs.
Each of them have more than one branch (SaakA). The oldest VedA is
recognized as Rig Vedam and the youngest is the Atharva Vedam. Latter has
nine branches or rescensions (navadhAatharvaNO veda:). These nine branches
are: (1) PaippalAda (2) Tauda (3) MuNda (4) SaunakIya (5) Jaajala (6) Jalada (7)
BrAhmaveda (8) Devadarsa and (9) ChAraNavaidya. Today, only two of the
nine branches of Atharva Vedam (Saunakha and PaippalAda) are available to us.
The Delhi Vedic trust has recorded the Saunakha sAkA .
The Atharva Veda samhithA has 5977 verses spread over 20 KhAndams
(books/chapters). The khAndams are further subdivided into hymns and they in
turn house a group of manthrAs. Some prefer to catalogue the Atharva Veda
Text (SamhithA)into prapaathakAs (Lessons or lectures). Under this
classification, there are 34 prapAthakAs that house the 5977 verses. Among
NammAzhwAr's four Tamil Prabhandhams, Periya ThiruvanthAdhi is
considered as the essence of Atharva Vedam.
The Delhi Vedic trust has recorded the 20 KhAndhams of Atharva Vedam in 14
audio tapes. I have now enjoyed listening to two of the twenty khAndams.
Rg Veda SamhithA
****************
This ancient Vedam has 1,028 sUkthams (hymns) and contains in all 10,589
verses. These are grouped into either 8 KhAndAs or 10 MandalAs with 85
anuvAkAs (subsections). There used to be 21 sakAs (redactions) of the Rig
VedAs. There is only one available today. That is Saakala SaakA. IythrEya
Upanishad belongs to Rig Veda SamhithA. NammAzhwAr's Thiruviruttham is
consdieres as the Veda SaarArtham of Rig Vedam.
The Delhi Vedic Trust has recorded Saakala sAkA in 27 ninety minute tapes.
During my father's sahasrAbhshEkam celebration, there was one Rig Vedic
expert from Mayavaram, who recited that samhithA. He was lost in the
ghOsham of Saama and KrishNa yajur Vedams. My great desire to hear the
authentic renditon of the Rig Vedam is now satisfied.
This Vedam has 1975 verses grouped under 40 chapters known as adhyAyAs.
The longest chapter has 117 "verses" and the shortest chapter has 13 "verses ".
There are two Yajur samhithAs: Sukla and KrishNa (White and Black)
samhithAs. The White Yajur Veda samhithA is also known as VajasanEyi -
MadhyAndina Sukla Yajur vedam to distinguish it from KrishNa Yajur Veda or
Taittiriya SamhithA, which is generally considered to be more close to a
BrahmaNA rather than to a Sruthi. Most of the people in AndhrA and Tamil
Naadu are KrishNa Yajur Vedins.
The two samhithAs have number of recensions in view of their wide popularity.
These variations arose from a variety of textual differences and their applications
in Vedic rituals. The two popular recensions of the Sukla Yajur Vedam are:
MaadhyAndhina and KaaNva; the KrishNa Yajur Vedam has three recensions:
kAtaka, Kapishtala-Kata and MaithrAyaNee.
Saama samhithA
**************
In its importance in YaagAs and sacredness, Saama Veda SamhithAs rank next
to Rig VedA. The Lord of GeethA however has put this Saama samhithA on the
top of all four SamhithAs with His declaration that He is Saama VedA among
the VedAs. This samhithA consists of hyms chanted by udhgAtri priests at the
Soma YaagAs. Many of the hymns originate from Rig Vedam and have been
rearranged without reference to the original order in the Rig Vedam and set to
music. Only 75 verses of the total of 1,875 verses of Saama Vedam are not to be
found in Rig Vedam. The remaining 1,800 verses are essentially the repetitions
of Rig Vedic verses. The important distinction however is that they are sung
instead of being recited. The Rig Vedam deals with knowledge and Saama
Vedam deals with UpAsanA, Worship and DhyAnam.
Saama Vedam had originally 1001 branches. We have very few left now.
NammAzhwAr's celebrated Thiruvaimozhi is recognized as the Saama Veda
SaarArtham.Veda PurushAya Nama:

ONE IN ZERO
Draupadi has five husbands but she has none. She had five sons and was never a
mother, No joy, no sense of victory, no honor as wife, no respect as mother, but
only the status of queen. It is not money or position that makes any one great. No
one in this world can escape troubles and difficulties. Draupadi was the queen of
the five Pandavas. Subhadra was Krishna’s sister and the wife of Arjuna. Even they
had to suffer so much. One has to develop the strength to bear the trials of life. We
should resolve firmly not harm the good people, and not to bend before the wicked.
The Dhramya vartana of Draupadi is well portrayed as, even at the time of great
stress, sorrow, difficulty, one never must deviate from the path of truth, Dharma.
'Do not mock others on their frailities otherwise results can be disastrous'-
Draupadi mocked at Duryodana calling him the 'blind son of a blind father'and this
remark pricked straight into the heart of Duryodana who nursed it for an occasion
of revenge. That also a remark though jocularly made, became the potent cause of
Mahabharatha.
ONE IN TWO
The Hindus can be proud of two great epics Ramayana and Maha Bharatha, which
were composed by two great sages Valmiki and Vyasas and they are called as
Ithihasas. The term Ithihasa indicates that episodes in them are real and true and
the characters therein had actually gone through several vicissitudes. Their
experiences had been embroidered excellently in the main theme, each one
throwing valuable lessons to help posterity to set everything in order.
Mahabharatha epic relates the story of two princely families and the heroic deeds
of valour which were performed in the Great War fought by the two branches. There
are characters and there are events which if rightly understood can become the
guiding principles of our life for all times. Women Characters in Mahabharatha if
properly understood, the lessons that are imparted can go a long way in making
our life great and glorious, honest and honorable. Numbers such as one wife to five
husbands is just for the sake of sharing one’s responsibilities and adhere Dharma
at all levels. One can achieve perfection and reach God solely guided by the twin
factors Righteousness and Truth (Dharmam and Satyam) ..
ONE IN MANY
As there may be many errors, I just want to conclude this with one word ‘pardon’ as
in the sloka in SriVishnu Sahasranama parayanam
Yadakshara padabhrshtam maatraa heenam tu yad bhavet / Tat sarvam
kshayataam deva narayana nmamosthuthe // Visarga bhindu maatraani
padapaadaa ksharaani cha / nyoonaani chatiriktaani kshamaswa purushothama //
Which states as "I may have erred whilst construction of, writing of, pronouncing
of, sentences, words, consonants, improper grammar, verb, vowels, of the prayers .
I may also have forgotten punctuation marks due to my ignorance in understanding
the heavenly idiom, Oh my lord May flaws be overlooked for they are out of my
ignorance again. I seek you to pardon me for all the commissions and
commissions for they are involuntary and kindly bless me for the endeavor".

Madhurakavi Nandavanam of Srirangam takes care of the flower-needs of the Srirangam

ekankis (celibate bachelor Sri Vaishnavas , who have sacrificed their lives for the sake of
performing kainkarya for Lord Namperumal)without any monetary gain for themselves .The
Nandavanam was donated by Madhurakavi Alwar in 1840 for the above kainkaryam. Now this

Respected Bhagavathas,
At the outset let me wish you all a Happy Sri Jayanthi.
I am very happy to present the Creation of my Guru Bratha (BROTHER) Sri Haresh (Singapore) of
Mumbai's New website http://www.vishnubhakti.com this website is launched with t he
Blessings of our Acharyan H H Rangapriya Maha Desikan.
The site is a general bhakti site with some references here and there to Ramanuja Sampradayam.
The focus of this site is not to engage in any major philosophical discussions but to provide an
online resource to those who are interested in engaging in Bhagavad, Bhagavata and Acharya
Kaimkaryams. The idea is to encourage Bhakti to Perumal among a wider audience and especially
to those who are from outside our sampradayam and more than anything those living abroad
who don't have the devotee or temple network.
Kindly send your feed back to us so that we can further improve the site.

There are no special food that needs to be offered . What you offer to Bhagavaan during your daily
worship ( ArAdhanam ) can be offered . The bhAvam ( loving attitude) and Bhakti are the most
important ingredients in offering of food . The other things to do are to recite either the stotrams
composed by this great AchAryan in both Tamil and Sanskrit .
Adaikkala Patthu in Tamil and NyAsa Dasakam , DasAvatAra StOtram , Sri Stuti ,
Godhaa Stuti , KaamAseekAshtakam in Sanskrit can be recited . The original Texts in Tamil and
Sanskrit of Sawmi Desikan are available in the following two web sites :
http://www.sundaras imham.org ( adaikkala Patthu and Chitra Desikeeyam are the 31st and 56th
ebooks in this series). http://www.ahobilav alli.org ( NyAsa Dasakam is here ).
You can also perform Archanai with Tulasi or Mallikai while reciting Sri VenkatEsa
There is another ebook entitled " Chitra Desikeeyam " in one of the above two web sites ,
which gives the sacred history of Swamy Desikan in pictures . Yourself and your family can browse
and enjoy the highlights of His life on earth andHis vaibhavam .
At Tiruvaheendhrapuram and Kaancheepuram , a big assembly of devotees will recite many of His
sacred works and climb the hill with Swamy Desikan ; this ghoshti recital in unison would be most
enchanting to hear
We have a very special event taking place at Thiruvaheendhrapura m this year . This is the
presentation (samarpaNam) of a golden ( Gold plated silver ) throne to this greatest AchArya for
use during the many festivals for Him .The devotees working on this kaimakryam need 1.5 Laks of
Rupees to complete this kaimakryam and present this special throne on September 29,2009 during
His birthday (Thiru nakshatram) .
It is my pleasure to invite all Sawmy Desika BhakthAs to support this Kaimakryam with whatever
amount they can . I will be happy to provide you the Indian bank to which you
can send your support funds . Please let me know of your interests .

Arul Maari – 15.
A serene mind with clear Conviction
The Lord being ' the be all and end all' is the cornerstone of our
philosophy.
AzhwArs- have highlihted this fact and it has been elucidated by
our pUrvAchAryAs.
The fact of AzhwAr-s longing for the Almighty ,yearning for Him
and devising
dubious methods like taking up maDal and resorting unsavory
means like
threatening with following other means -refer the ninth pAsuram
of the 9-3-9 of Thriumozhi - and so on has to be seen in the light of
their emotions. Does it not speak volumes of their mis-
understanding of the concept or does it
categorically point to the fact that their minds indeed are
fluctuating?
Pareekshit is cursed to die of a snake bite, and only seven days of his life are
left. He asks Sukhabrahmam how he should spend the last days of his life.
Sukhabrahmam tells him that he should listen to the story of Krishna.
Pareekshit wonders whether he will be able to listen to all of it in just seven
days. Sukhabrahmam replies that even if one listens to Krishna’s story for an
hour every day, one will benefit. Only those who are blessed will have the
good fortune of listening to Krishna’s story. We have to take several births —
as grass, reptiles, and animals — before we are born as human beings. So to
be born as humans is a blessing in itself. To be born in the ‘punya bhumi’
where Krishna lived is a greater blessing. This ‘punya bhumi’ is further blessed
by the birth in it of several Acharyas, who have travelled the length and
breadth of the country. One should be blessed to have good parents, who
make it possible for their children to listen to the elevating stories of Krishna.
Man is conditioned by his surroundings, and a person who has the opportunity
to listen to stories of Krishna should consider himself blessed.
The Lord appears on this Earth when dharma is under threat and Mother
Earth’s burden becomes unbearable. When Kamsa rules Mathura, Bhooma
Devi, along with Brahma and the celestials, decides to go to Lord Narayana for
help. But even before they take two steps, the Lord, aware of their desire,
tells them that He will appear as Krishna and slay Kamsa.
