Rig Vedi Avani Avittam for the year 2023 (29 August 2023)
(Compiled by P.R.Ramachander)
(For 15 years , I had been putting the for the rig Vedis, the same collection of
Manthras like Yajur vedis. Being a Yajur vedi , I have seen the rig Vedis also
doing the same rituals as Yajur Vedis. A learned Gentleman from Madras viz Sri
Mani Narayan wrote to me that the manthras , I was giving was wrong and the
correct manthras are available in a book by Seri L.Anantha Narayana Sastri and
published by R.S.Vadhyar, Palakkad. Three years back I got the book, To my
surprise I found all the rituals before Mahasankalpa were Pujas and Homas, which
cannot be performed without the help of the learned priest. They are
1,Vighneswara Pooja
2.Sankalpa Punyahavachanam
3.Aghni Mukham
8.Home sesha
b.Om Bhoo…………..Bhoorbhavaswarom
Wear Poonal one by one by reciting(poonal should be held by both hands, the tie
in the poonal being held above by the right hand facing upwards)
h.Do aachamanam.
Summary meaning: I wear the white yagnopavitha that is purifying , which was
born along with brahma, which is capable of increasing life .I am sure this would give
glory and strength to me.I am destroying the dirty , soiled yagnopavita .
There is no Kamakarsheth Japa prescribed for those who follow Rig veda
3.Maha Sankalpam
a.Aachamanam
b.Shuklam baradharam……..
c.Om bhoo
d.Maha samkalpam
- Before you do the Upakarma , please calculate corresponding IST and take
the proper Thidhi and Nakshatra.
Summary meaning:Here again apart from locating oneself with reference to time , one
locates himself with reference to place also.We are supposed to live in Jambu Dweepa,
Bharatha Kanda which is south of the great mountain Maha meru.Then again this
Bhasratha Kanda is blessed with many holy rivers and holy places.Then prayer is
done to God to pardon sins committed by word, thought and deed, because this was
done inspite of his great grace which made us be born as human beings after several
wheels of birth.Also the sins performed during several ages in life is
highlighted.Some of the sins specifically mentioned are those done while earning
money without conscience, giving money to improper people, actions which did not
suit the caste we are born in, sins due to non performance of actions which ought to
have been done and so on. We pray God and tell him that we would take bath in holy
pure water and then start the veda parayanas which is our duty as Brahmin.
After bath again change poonal by reciting manthra as given in s.No.1.Please note
that now a days very rarely people take bath after mahaa sankalpam but do prokshana
snanam i.e bath by sprinkling of water on the head.
