    Vyanjanani 2: AntastAh; Ushmanah; (semi vowels, sibilants).

    Chanting in Samskrta is very popular because of the benefits these chants offer us on various levels. Mantra chants, stotra chants and reading of important texts like the Bhagavat gita or Upanishads need clarity of pronunciation. Not everyone is adept at Samskrta pronunciation. So, this is an attempt to clarify pronunciation and help learn the right way to sa any alphabet. The videos are meant to help no only those who read Devanagari, but also those who use transliterations in other languages. 0:00  Introduction 0:30 Classifications of Vyanjanams 0:41 Uchharasthanam 0:52 Karanam 1:15 Pranah 1:35 4th classification intro 3:03 SprshTam- vargiya vyanjanani 3:36 Eeshatsprshtam- Antasthah 6:29 Eeshadvivrta- UShmaNAh (sibilants) 8:54 UshmaNAh (aspirant) 9:33 Samyukta aksharAni- intro 10:42 Summary

    Verses 8-24 Meaning of Argala Stotram . Destruction of Internal enemies (shad ari varga/shadripus)

    I am honoured to have had this journey of explaining the Argala stotram in detail. I have learnt a lot during this journey and I thank the Mother for her infinite grace.Agala stotram is one of deep philosophical and devotional meanings. While I have explained some amount in detail, there are many more verses which could benefit from more explanation. But, having gone through he other verse explanations, I hop you as readers have got n idea of how symbolically many meanings are woven into our stotrams. In fact almost all important texts in all subjects have been written in peotical format in samskrtam. Even astronomy, maths and and all scientific etc used poetic form. So we need to learn the basics of each subject before understanding the meanings. Literal translations may seem like stories and imaginations, but our ancestors were very well versed in myriad subjects and therefore were able to compose poetry as means of encryption of information, making sure there is no distortion or misinterpretation. And being poetic it was easy to by heart complete texts. We are deeply indebted to them for handing down this amazing tradition.The story of Navaratri, the nine days of war between asuras and the Devi. The episode 7B was a symbolism of the process of evolution of the human mind. From the delusion of the world, the mind can be lead slowly towards clarity and the unveiling of Devi within each of us. This process is shown as a fight between the Devi and various Asuras, who are just the different stumbling blocks in our path to realisation. I have isolated each story and explained the symbolism within each verse.00: Introduction01:03 Rupam dehi 02:04 Jayam dehi03:08 Yasho dehi04:06 Dvishi jahi (internal enemies)09:01 Verse 809:49 Verse 910:35 Verse 1011:28 Verse 1112:18 Verse 1212:57 Verse 1313:56 Verse 1414:42 Verse 1515:27 Verse 1616:29 Verse 1717:19 Verse 1818:15 Verse 1918:56 Verse 2019:40 Verse 2120:20 Verse 2221:02 Verse 2321:40 Verse 2422:31 Verse 2523:16 Verse 2624:00 Verse 27About Argala Stotram:Dedicated to the Mother Goddess Durga, Argala Stotram is a powerful Chant. It praises the Devi Who defeats and destroys all the Asuras and Who, as the Protector, takes care of All Creation. Asuras are not just external forces, they are also representative of our own internal negative tendencies, which need to be defeated if we are to experience the beauty of our inner god.The internal enemies to be defeated are explained in this episode.The chant in script with meanings can be found here:https://vedikheritageblog.wordpress.com/argala-stotram-the-chant/The meanings in detail can be found here:https://vedikheritageblog.wordpress.com/argala-stotram-meanings-in-detail/The link to the complete chant is given here: https://youtu.be/tvp31sOnz8gThe podcast link to the complete chant is given here:https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/dncCwJ4BfNbReference links:The reference for detailed meaning has been taken from the discourse by this swamiji on the Pithrukam Channel : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZEjEHGtvcc ( meaning in Malayalam)https://devimahatmya.com/understanding-the-devi-mahatmyas-esoteric-hidden-meaning-knowing-chanda-and-munda/

    Daily sensory cleanse: Dinachara. Traditional knowledge of personal hygiene for a healthy body & mind.

    We in Bharat have given personal hygiene prime importance since antiquity. Not only were we aware of the health benefits we also believed in Prana, life force energy and used the cleansing routine to harness all elemental energies optimally. Understanding this can give us an insight into living a better quality of life as well as in improving our health.This episode is meant to educate the new generations on these routines as in many a family modern influences have lead to the loss of such traditional knowledge. It is also ot encourage young parents to embrace healthier options in personal hygiene routines.0:00 Introduction0:27 Sense Organs2:45 Why cleanse in the morning?3:28 Sense organ Eye4:52 Method of cleanse-Eyes5:20 Element of Fire- Agni7:01 Sense organ Ear8:08 Method of cleanse-Ears8:47 Element of Space- Akasha9:34 Sense Organ Nose10:58 Method of cleanse- Nose12:06 Element of Earth- Prthvi12:41 Sense organ Mouth13:23 Neem twigs, tooth powders14:49 Method of cleanse- Teeth15:33 Method of cleanse- Gums15:52 Method of cleanse- Tongue17:51 Method of cleanse- Throat18:00 Element of Water- Aap/Jala18:46 4 Senses conclusion19:07 Sense Organ Skin21:24 Does skin absorb Oxygen?22:16 Purpose of a bath22:48 The traditional bath25:22 Element of Air- Vayu25:58 Conclusion
