I have a question- How many of you in this forum ( from various age group, working class , retired people , people who are lustful to have 3-4 time meal a day) does Sandhyavandanam daily.......
Every one wants to be called himself proudly "Brahmin". Doing a sandhyavandanam is just a very basic requirements and it takes just 30-40 min in a whole day. Every one is busy, running after money, deposits, mutual fund investments - but do we miss our meal ? Then why take a lame excuse in not doing Sandhyavandam.

The below statement is 100% true ( which you can check with your family Shastrigal also)

without doing Sandhyavandam, any rituals you do - be it- Shrartham, Poojai, Prayer, Sumangali Prarthanai, deepam, Temple trips, Sabarimalai trips, Homam- you will get Zero benefit. Without nitya karma you will be doomed and old-age home is waiting......


Now pls read the below links......... Share your comments . Even one person after reading this message feel guilty and start doing sandhyavandanam ( at least 2 times a day) , my post met its objective

Gayatri is considered the veda mata, the mother of all Vedas.

The Gayatri Sandhya is considered to be the holiest verse of the Vedas. The original Sanskrit is in the shape of a Vedic mantra and forms a formula for daily devotion of all Brahmins in the land.

The very subject of Sandhyavandanam makes every one in the group to be silent. Why? what is stopping you to do this karma every day? Why no one wants to participate in this debate? . Why ? Are you feeling guilty in not doing it ? Dont you want to see your future generations to prosper with your doing Karma's? Just do it !@!

In veda there is no Prayachittam for not doing Sandhyavandanam. Dharma says even during condolence period you should do Sandhhyavandanam. Any one has different thoughts here ?

Dear Sir,

I read somewhere that if the brahmin ways of life is not followed for three consecutive generations by a brahmin family,

then they will be NO MORE brahmins. The world is heading for a global society and hence this thread is silent! :tape:

RRji, what if women are also taught and allowed to do such rituals? Maybe then there is a chance?
 
Dear Biswa Sir,

Many tambram women learn lots of slokAs and chant everyday. They are somewhat highbrow personalities and look down upon

women who have not learnt them! During special poojA days, they will be screaming at all the kids around not to touch them,

since they will be wearing 'madi' (super clean) dress! Till the poojA is over, the house will be in chaos!! :)
 
Namaskaram Sri Rkpatham

Your intention is too good. infact it is the same thing which Mahaperiyava and Sringeri Periyava used to highlight this in every pravachanam. The reason why peopleleft it because they didn't know the subtle meaning of this sandhyavandhana upasana. And who said that tif a person does sandhyavandha is brahmin. Brahmin is the one who realise the utimate brahman and contemplate on mahavakya. And brahmin is the one who is away from worldly desire and follow the path to realise the ultimate self. the same that people do sandhyavandha recites like asavadityo brahma brahmai vahamasmi. The bhavana that a kartha has to do is he should contemplate that he is none other than ultimate para brahma tattva that is athma. Who said that there is no prayaschitta please refer smriti mukhta phalam prayaschitta kandam. it is very well detailed in that.
Thanks
