"And of Rudras I am Shankara, Of the Yakshas and Rakshas I am Kubera- Lord of Wealth, And of the Vasus I am the fire Of the mountains I am the Sumeru Of the greatest sages I am Bhrigu Of the sounds I am the one syllable-OHM Of the Offerings I am Japa, repetition of sacred names Of the unmoving things- I am The Mighty Himalayas I am Shiva “ 1.

Äyuñya-Süktam Every human being has come to this world with a pre-destined period. However, because of our ignorance and abuse/non-use of free-will, we end up living less than the period that we are allowed. ‘Äyuñya-Süktam’ is a prayer to the Lord to bless us with long life. After all, whatever a person desires to achieve can be achieved only in this human life. The incarnation of animals and devatäs are only bhoga-çaréra and not karma-çaréra. The possibility of complete longevity by puruñärtha – self-effort, the full term of life is achieved by specific prayer such as ‘Äyuñya-Süktam’. The Süktam has nine mantras praying for long life. The prayer is addressed to various deities such as Brahmä, Çiva, Sun, and all the celestials who are guardians of the universe. Äyuù = all facets of mental and physical health and nourishment, and thus is the purpose of this Süktam. Äyuñyam = Promoting long healthy prayerful Dhärmic life in every auspicious way. This is the motive and spirit in which you can listen to or chant this mantra. All mantras/süktam cannot be used for homam (fire-ritual). Thankfully, ‘Äyuñya-Süktam’ can be/is used in performing ‘Äyuña-homam’. It is/can be performed on one’s nakñatra-birthday. The whole ritual could be – Gaëapati-Püjä/homam, Navagraha-homam, Mahä-måtyuïjaya-homam, Bhägya-süktam, and Äyuñya-homam’. If four Åtviks (Priests) are performing, each may offer 27 oblations to make a total of 108 oblations for ‘Äyuñya-homam’. In the absence of fire-ritual, simple recitation can be done. *** Text in Roman script with Free Translation yo brahmä brahmaëa ujjahära präëaiç-çiraù kåttiväsäf-pinäké | éçäno devas sa na äyur-dadhätu tasmai juhomi haviñä ghåtena ||1|| Lord Brahmä (the Creator) was born from the breath (präëa) of Brahman.
