Samjnana Suktam

Samjnana Suktam is a hymn for unity of thought. It is the last hymn of the Rig Veda Samhita (X.191). It consists of four mantras (verses). The deity of the first verse is Agni. Samjnana is the deity of the rest of the verses. The term samjnana means ‘unity in thought.’ Unanimity at the intellectual level among those gathered in an assembly is sought in this hymn. The name of the rishi (the seer) of this hymn is Samvamana, which also indicates the quest for unity. Moreover, these verses are repeated with minute changes in Atharva Veda Samhita (VI.63.4, VI.64), where the deity or subject of these verses is referred to as Samanasya, which gives a similar sense. Samjnana Sukta (or a few verses from it) are found in other Vedic texts, too, and thus its importance in the Vedas is pretty evident. This hymn illustrates the significance of unanimity or agreement in general assembly of the people for some common cause on certain important occasions. The first verse, addressed to Agni, is not d

Samipya – Self In The Presence Of Paramatma

Shaiva Siddhanta insists that liberation is possible only by annihilating the onslaught of the three impurities – anava, karma and maya. As a realistic, relativistic and pluralistic system of thought, Shaiva Siddhanta advocates several means for liberating self from bondage, depending on the qualification of religious training of the devotees. External purification through the smearing of the holy ashes and wearing of holy beads and internal sanctification by chanting the holy mystic syllables (sacred mantras like namah shivaya) are said to be the preparatory ground for entering into the realm of union with Shiva. The four fold path consists of carya, kriya, yoga and jnana. By following the path of kriya (action) which emphasizes both external worship and internal adoration, the aspirant can achieve this objective of samipya. This path is also known as satputra marga, the path of a noble son. The self is regarded as the son of the universal father. In its onward march, the atma leave

Mental Problems Arise From The Dualities Of Life

Mental problems arise from the dualities of life and, more important, from lust and anger. It is difficult to confront mental problems as long as we remain identified with our mind. Braving mental problems calls for a certain amount of detachment and learning to witness how the mind works. But this detachment is possible only by training and disciplining the mind. Thanks to our samskaras, our mind has been conditioned to respond to situations in a certain predetermined way. We need to reprogramme the mind with wholesome thoughts, and engage in noble actions. That will augment our good samskaras. Practice of japa, prayer, meditation and the like is aimed at awakening our discriminative faculty called buddhi, which can be called our higher mind. It is only when buddhi awakens at least partially that we are able to see our thoughts and actions in perspective and stop acting impulsively or passionately. The mind always tends to follow the sense organs and their objects, either at the g
