Mangalya Prarthana
[Universal Prayer to well being from the Vedas]
Translated by P. R. Ramachander

Swasthi prajabhya paripalayantham,
Nyayena margena maheem maheesa,
Gobrahmanebhyo shubhamasthu nithyam,
Loka samastha Sukhino bhavantu.

Let good things occur to the king of the country,
Who looks after his people well, in the path of justice,
Let Cows* and Brahmins** have a pleasant life daily,
Let all people of the world have a very pleasant life.
*wealth was measured by cows in those times
** People in search of God

Kale varshathu parjanya,
Prauthwee sasya shalini,
Deso yam kshobha rahitha,
SAjjana santhu nirbhaya.

Let the monsoon be timely and plentiful,
Let earth be covered with vegetation,
Let the country live without problems,
And let good people never have fear.

Aputhra puthrina santhu,
Puthrina santhu pouthrina,
Adhana sadhana,
Santhu jeevanthu sarada satham.

Let sonless people have son,
Let people with son have grand sons,
And let people who are poor or rich,
Live and see one hundred autumns.

Sarvathra sukhina santhu,
Sarve santhu niramaya,
Sarve bhadrani pasyanthu,
Ma kaschid dukha bhag bhaveth.

Let people live with pleasure everywhere,
Let all people live without diseases,
Let every one feel themselves secure,
And let none have at anytime sorrow,

Om Sarvesham swasthir bhavthu,
Om Sarvesham santhir Bhavathu,
Om Sarvesham poornam Bhavathu,
Om Sarvesham Mangalam Bhavathu.

Let comfort be every where,
Let peace be everywhere,
Let there be plenty everywhere,
And let good things happen everywhere.

Om Santhi, Om Santhi, Om Santhi

Let there be peace,
Let there be peace,
Let there be peace.

With friendship please serve,
And conquer all the hearts,
Please think that others are like you,
Please forsake war for ever,
Please forsake competition for ever,
Please forsake force to get,
Some one else property,
For mother earth is a wish giving animal,
And God our father is most merciful,
Restrain, donate and be kind,
To all the people of this world.
Let all the people live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss,
Let all the people live with bliss.
Sri Kanchi Maha Periva Thiruvadigal Saranam

   ego is all play and display ,

creativity in every expression for sharing

for distributing unlimited joys

it’s cognizing the inner splendor,

coming out to express as master pieces in every medium,

arts, sciences, spirituality, philosophy, religion,

literature , music, dance, drama , fashion, shows, 

movies, exhibitions , presentations, video,

reaching all, reaching all in the universe

reaching every particle in the infinite nature around

and generating the maximum evolution of individual,

evolution of the universe

and thus taking part in the task of almighty supreme power

directing one and all from within

not for remaining in oblivion, not for staying in darkness,

but to come out as brilliant sun to illumine

never in inhibition, but in nonchalance, 

reveling free, bold, grand,

every saint did not limit to his narrow closed dwelling

but came out , brought all his goods to serve the humanity

they are just a happy lot

come what may

no matter what others say

we make a blog

we post it to all for joy

for wisdom, for fun whatever worth it is

yet it is a play and display

never a underplay

nor a  nonplay or misplay

unmanifest is alone, hidden, deep inside,

unseen, silent,

colorless, tasteless, odorless ,

formless, nameless, nothingness

but that is only the part of the full story

not its only glory 

but he immediately casts aside his hide and seek

comes out in the manifest

lo

see what a play and display his creative intelligence can accomplish

all beyond the imagination of any human mind

and all the great souls were just flabbergasted

and kept wondering uttering such exclamations as

‘’his glory is in explicable’’

is it not due to his power of ego to play and display in every way ,

in all ways always?

So

do not be suppressed depressed oppressed

angered hungered,

plundered blundered

but

go forward bring all your ware in the market place

it is all fair and proper to search for a place in the heart of every one

and do it fastest best

   Each is king of his universe

there is no other person existing

all are you

you is all, you is one ,

the king advaitha, no second,

thath thvam asi , you are that

this is difficult to take without the spiritual , direct, experience of god

  Each one is a universe total , no separation"

   educational qualifications, character and conduct certificates, interview, exams, written and vocal, interviews , merit listing, strictest job, specs, performance evaluation, punishment awards as per performance must be there for all politicians

   god has been writing books infinite

his language silence

his scribble invisible

”richo akshare parame vyoman”

[knowledge is structured in consciousness]

all the infinite books are collated

compressed stored ever updated

all the pranies are accessing his website , the innernet

and down loading as per capability/necessity

uploading their experiences, pains pleasures, success/ 

failure stories for his feedback /recycling/evolution/improvement 

of all his product designs

that is how creation is denovo

in the process of navo navo bhavathi

”yasthannaveda kim richa karishyathi”

[what avail is all this to those who do not know that]

   

Gurus know best we not imitate blindly:

but we must learn the sadhana what guru did which enabled him to arrive at the stage of teaching , 

and do that sadhana ,intensely, as done by guru, --- thru which the deepest teachings of guru become our natural inner nature , and become the living reality , without reading, reciting, memorizing any teachings 

the mistake normally committed is, the student out of ignorance or innocence comes to the conclusion that he must follow the teachings, spread the teachings, conform to his dos donts ---all become fruitless exercise struggling to achieve the impossible , life time wasted without reaching the goal .

a great guru says ---do not imitate me , you cannot succeed , but you put in sadhana in the way i put in , then you will gain those abilities what i have gained, and will be able to lead the life i am able to 

example 
one seeing an athlete lifting a very heavy weight , can never lift it however much he tries to , inspired by him , in existing level 

but if he does the daily gym and food specs prescribed, he will surely , after enough sadhana inputs, he will be able to lift the weights, even can lift heavier weights

 

Praising my favorite athlete, doing pooja to his photo, reading and spreading his great capabilities and accomplishments , keeping record of all his performance and medals won, wearing the dress like him, ----life long with all sincerity, devotion, faith, and hope ------all will never make me athlete. unless i do the sadhana myself whatever is possible / feasible without wasting time on his glories .

 

nothing is a substitute for sadhana , and student should never be under delusion, riding piggy back on guru, nor carrying guru on piggy back .

if following the teachings is so easy , then all of us would have become instantly masters, since teachings have been there since ages from every guru, saint, mahathma

who does not know what is good and what is bad ?

every one knows.
still , knowing that, man has been doing bad, why?

knowing is not enough. 

what is required is the ability to do good , like that weight lifter, and it is possible only after having acquired the ability , one can lead a good life .

so one must put the efforts to acquire the abilities--- is the firm conclusion ,and essence of every teaching and the life of ever master

any agenda of propaganda is waste of time, waste of life, is no good use of the essence of teaching
