Sacred Thread

The sacred thread is made up of nine fibres. One deity is established in each fibre as follows.

1. Omkar,
2. Agni (deity of fire),
3. Nag (serpent),
4. Som (moon),
5. Pitar (ancestors),
6. Prajapati (deity of procreation),
7. Vayu (air),
8. Yama (deity of death) and
9. Vishvadevata (deity of the universe).

Three strands are created by twisting three of the nine fibres in each strand.

The three Vedas - Rugveda, Yajurveda and Samaveda are established on each of these strands. Three fibres are woven into one strand and the three strands are then knotted together. This knot is called the Brahmagatha (gatha means a knot) or the Brahmagranthi (granthi means a gland). [The knot of sacred grass (darbha) tied to a gold ring (pavitrak) is also called a Brahmagranthi.] It is the site of establishing the Atharvaveda.

The three strands represent the

three stages (ashrams) -

1. celibate student (brahmacharya), 
2. the married householder (gruhastha) and 
3. retired householder (vanaprastha); 

three fires,

1. the fire worshipped in the home (garhapatya), 
2. the fire placed in the south (dakshinagni) and 
3. the sacred fire lit for a specific spiritual purpose (ahvaniya) 

as well as

1. spiritual knowledge (dnyan), 
2. devotion (bhakti) and 
3. action (karma). 

The one who possesses all these three qualities gets the spiritual experience of Brahman.

Based on 96 items listed the length of sacred thread should be 96 times the breadth of a finger (angul).

तिथिर्वारं च नक्षत्रं तत्त्‍ववेदगुणान्‍वितम्‌ । कालत्रयं च मासाश्र्च ब्रह्‍मसूत्रं हि षण्‍णव ।।

Meaning:

1. 15 auspicious dates (tithis) + 
2. 7 days of the week + 
3. 27 lunar asterisms + 
4. 25 principles + 
5. 4 Vedas + 
6. 3 components (gunas) + 
7. 3 time periods (kals) + 
8. 12 months = 96. 

Thus, the length of the sacred thread (yadnyopavit) is 96 times the breadth of a finger (angul).

Meat

Mam sah khadati iti mamsa - Mantra Before Sacrificing Animal

It is said, mam sah khadati iti mamsah. 
That is, “I am now eating the flesh of an animal who will some day in the future be eating my flesh.” 

The Sanskrit word mamsa means “meat. Mam means "me." And sa meahns "he." 
"I am killing this animal. I am eating. And he'll kill me and eat." 

This word is reminding that "You are killing this animal, and eating. So this animal will kill you and eat you in Future."

Cannabis

Cannabis is first referred to in Hindu Vedas between 2000 and 1400 BCE, in the Atharvaveda. By the 10th century CE, it has been suggested that it was referred to by some in India as "food of the gods". Cannabis use eventually became a ritual part of the Hindu festival of Holi.

Kingdom

Vedic people were not primitive. They were more civilized than any other race of that period. The rules and regulations stipulated for the king and the duties and prerogatives assigned to the king show that they are highly organised and very much advanced in civilization.

It is amazing to see all the important Departments or Ministries were in place during the Vedic time.

Ministries: Grhapati, Vanaspati, Pasupati, Dharmapati, Brhaspati

Ministers : Savita, Agni, Soma, Brahaspati, Indra, Rudra, Mitra, Varuna

Coronation and Consecration

The rites and rituals connected with the Coronation and Consecration ceremony are described in the Satapata Brahmana (5-3, 5-4). On the first day of the five day ceremony, offerings are made to eight deities-

1. Savita, 
2. Agni, 
3. Soma, 
4. Brahaspati, 
5. Indra, 
6. Rudra, 
7. Mitra, 
8. Varuna

These eight Gods are called ‘Devasus’ or Divine Quickeners’ and each has an epithet of his own.

While offering the oblations, each is invoked along with his epithet which bespeaks one or other aspect of royal prerogatives, duties and functions.

1. Thus Savita is invoked as Satyaprasava for true impulse or righteous energy of the king. ( I will compare it to the modern Ministry of External Affairs and Prime Minister’s Office) 
2.  Agni as Grhapati for mastery of the household( Ministry of Human Resources)
3.  Soma as Vanaspati for the protection of forests and agriculture (Ministry of Agriculture and Forests)
4.  Brhaspati Vak for power of speech ( Ministry of Information and Broadcasting) 
5. Indra as Jyeshta for supremacy or predominance in matters of administration (Ministry of Home Affairs) 
6. Rudra as Pasupati for protection of cattle,(Ministry of Animal Husbandry) 
7. Mitra as Satya for truth,(Ministry of Moral Education) And lastly 
8. offering to Varuna and moral governor as Dharmapati for upholding Dharma or Law. The last epithet viz, that of Varuna makes the king upholder of law or one who enforces law and order. (Ministry of Law and Order)

Thus each epithet is applied with an eye to each prerogative or duty of the king-designate.

Eight Ministers for Tamil Kings
Tamil kings who ruled in the southern part of India two thousand years ago also had Eight Advisers. The council was called ‘EnPerayam.’ It consisted of

1. Chief of Accounts 
2. Chief of Executive officials 
3. Chief of Treasury officials 
4. Chief of Palace guards 
5. Leading citizens representatives 
6. Chief of Infantry 
7. Chief of Elephantry 
8. Chief of the Cavalry 

Shivaji’s Eight Ministers
Ashta Pradhan of Veera Shivaji

Shivaji who was coronated in 1674 had Eight Ministers to run the country. The council was called Ashta Pradhan.

1. Peshwa: Prime Minister 
2. Amatya: Minister in charge of Financial matters 
3. Sacheev: Chief of Administration 
4. Mantri: Home Minister 
5. Sumant: Foreign Minister 
6. Senapati: Commander in Chief, Defence Minister 
7. Nyayadish: Law Minister/ Chief Justice 
8. Panditrao: Minister in charge of Religious Affairs 

Council of Eight Poets: Ashta Diggajas

Ancient King Vikramaditya had a Council of Nine Scholars known as Navaratnas (Nine Gems). 

http://religiousway.blogspot.com/search/label/Navaratnas

Vijayanagara kings had a group of Eight Poets/scholars knows as Ashta Diggajas ( Eight Elephants in 8 cardinal points). They were very popular because of their poetical works. The eight poets were 

1. Allasani Peddana, 
2. Nandi Thimmana, 
3. Madayagari Mallana, 
4. Pingali Surana,
5. Tenali Ramakrishna, 
6. Dhurjati Ayyalaraju, 
7. Ramaraja Bhushandu, 
8. Rama Bhadrudu. 

Of the eight poets, Tenali Ramakrishna was the most famous person. He was a great poet and a jester. His anecdotes are known to every child of South India.

Vijayanagara Emperor Krishna Devaraya who ruled between 1509 and 1529 AD had these eight poets. He himself was a great poet.

Looking at these councils, one may conclude that the ancient practice of having EIGHT COUNCILLORS was followed till recent times.

Guinness record

B Sai Kiran, the only Vedic memory trainer in the world, achieved an unusual feat recently, when he memorised 100 odd words from different languages like Russian, Sanskrit, German and many other technical terms as well.

“Ten scholars from various colleges were invited and together they came up with 100 words from their respective fields. I was given 10 minutes to memorise them, after which I had to recall them in the same sequence in which they were given,” said Kiran.

So how did he manage to remember the words? “It is very simple. Mind understands the language of pictures and can remember only something that is tangible. All that I do is convert unimaginable things into pictures and decode them in pictorial forms,” he says.

Kiran has also applied for the Limca Book of Records as no one else has attained this feat.

“I didn’t try this task earlier as I wanted the students from my institute to be able to do it.

Unfortunately when they were unable, I decided to attempt it,” he said.

Kiran has been in the field of vedic learning since 2001, when he first began his institute, IMPACT (Institute of Memory Power and Calculation Techniques) in the city.

“After my graduation, I was not as successful in my job as I would have expected,” he says recalling his earlier days when Dr Madugula Nagaphani Sharma and Das introduced him to the field of Vedic mathematics and vedic memory. After attaining a degree in the subject, Kiran started teaching the technique to children in his colony.

Once the method became a rage and brought him fame he decided to make it his full-time profession.

“Today, I have institutes in Dubai and Kuwait as well and I train more than 2 lakh students every year,” he says.

Kiran now aims to help the education system in our country benefit from Vedic memory and adds that it was this method that aided our ancestors while doing calculations in the age when calculators were unheard of.

“Every calculation is done within 10 or what we call ‘Dashamshav’ and so one does not require a calculator for that. For example, if one is doing normal mathematics, and has to divide something by 34, then knowing the table of 34 is a must. But with Vedic mathematics, you can calculate it within seconds without knowing the table,” he said and immediately scribbled the calculations and reached the answer in a jiffy.

He also says that this system will help children think out of the box as it gives scope for understanding and logically memorising.

“Indian education system is more powerful than any other, mainly because we still don’t have to use calculators till a certain age, and insist on mental mathematics. This system will help the children more and they will never require a calculator,” he declares with confidence.

Guinness record

Sai Kiran subtracts a 70-digit number from another in 60.05 seconds

It was a day of ambiguity for 26-year-old B. Sai Kiran.

He could not decide whether to exult over his newly set world record or to mope over the lapse of milliseconds in achieving the task he set about for.

Nevertheless, jubilations broke out as soon as this numerical prodigy, in his second attempt on Monday, successfully subtracted a 70-digit number from another in 60.05 seconds.

Sai Kiran, who set out to achieve it in one minute, fell short of his goal by five milliseconds, still scaling the heights of the world record successfully. Delegates from the Record Holders Republic, United Kingdom, declared on the spot his ‘Super Subtraction Feat' as a world record.

Sai Kiran, a trainer in Vedic Maths and Vedic Memory, failed in the first attempt though. Despite completing his task two seconds before the set time, he committed mistakes in the giant subtraction. He was allowed a second chance which led him to success.

The attempt being for a Guinness World Record, it was ensured that all digits except the first in the minuend are smaller than the corresponding digits in the subtrahend, thereby raising the complexity level of the calculation.

“I am going to use Nikhilam sutra from Vedic Mathematics which is based on the number 10,” Sai Kiran declared prior to the event, “Through my feat, I want to show the greatness of Indian Mathematics to the world.”

While the conventional subtraction is done from right to left, Vedic maths requires it to be done from left to right, he explained.

The event was organised by Institute of Memory Power and Calculation Techniques in association with Bala Sahithya Parishad. Video recording of the event will be sent for an entry into the Guinness Book of World Records, the organisers said.
