PRATHYAKSHA PADA PUJA & SWASTI MANTRA
Request everybody to declare the following with integrity and authenticity if you agree to it
Integrity is you fulfilling the word and thought you give to yourself and to
others and experiencing a state of Poornatva – completion with yourself
and with life.
Authenticity is you being established and responding to life from who you
believe yourself to be for yourself, who you believe yourself to be for
others, and, what others believe you to be for them.
The tatva (truth) of Paada puja:
There is cosmic source of energy that is the energy which runs the “whole”
– the entire universe and the “individual part of the whole” – you. The
Master is the “Chinmaya Vigraha – embodiment and representation of that
very cosmic energy.” During paada puja, whatever you offer to the Master
reaches the cosmic source of energy directly.
You are now requested to declare this with authenticity and integrity: If you agree to this Pl say “Yes”
1) I authentically cognize (internally process, understand and declare)
the truth that cosmic energy exists.
2) I authentically cognize (internally process, understand and declare)
the truth that the master is the Chinmaya Vigraha – embodiment and
representation of that very cosmic energy.
3) I authentically cognize (internally process, understand and declare)
the truth that whatever I offer during the paada puja to the Master will
reach the cosmic source of energy directly.
Let us enter the Pratyaksha Pada Puja.
– 3 –
In the Pratyaksha Pada Puja the Sanskrit Mantras we are going to chant will directly take us to a very deep meditative state which will immensely help us connect to the Master’s energy..
The Prathyaksha Pada Puja begins First with the Sadguru Vandanam and then the Guru Parampara Vandanam and then Arunagiri Yogishwara Vandanam. In the Sadguru Vandanam, we offer our gratitude to Swamiji and in the Guru Parampara Vandanam, we offer our gratitude to the lineage of all the Enlightened Masters. In the Arunagiri Yogishwara Vandanam we offer our respects and gratitude to Arunagiri Yogishwara*, an incarnation of Lord Shiva who lived 2,000 years ago.
The meaning of the mantra we are going to chant now is: I surrender to that Sadguru who is the eternal bliss, the bestower of supreme happiness, the One, who is the embodiment of wisdom, who is beyond duality, who is omnipresent, to whom the Supreme goal is giving the Enlightenment experience, who is eternal, pure and unshakable, who is the silent spectator of all thought processes, who is beyond emotions, who is without the three qualities called Sattva, Rajas and Tamas. I surrender to the Lineage of all the Enlightened Masters which has Lord Sadashiva as the beginning, Tirujnaanasambandhar as the middle, and my Master as the end. The Arunagiriyogishwara who is the Lord of all beings who has the sacred ash applied on His forehead, who has a glittering stick, who has worn a loin cloth on His glittering hip, who has worn the Duttura flower, King Cobra and a crescent moon on His forehead wins.
Now please take some flowers in your hands and close your eyes and offer
the flowers at Swamiji's feet at the end of the mantra.

The next is the Maanasa Puja or the worship in our mind. If performed with a proper attitude, the worshipper will get the full benefit of the Puja. This form of worship brings intimacy between the Master and the disciple.
The meaning of the mantra we are going to chant is: What seat can I offer the Master except my heart? I offer the gratitude flowing as nectar to wash His feet and to rinse His mouth. I offer my mind itself as the arghya- the bouquet. To my Master who is the very Cosmos, what clothing can I offer except the space? I offer my very prana as incense and I offer the ocean of nectar as food offering. The principle of unstuck perennial sound is to be offered as bell, the air as chamara, the sahasra as umbrella, the principle of sound as music, the actions of the senses and also the vagaries of mind as dance. All the seven chakras along the Sushumna nadi is to be offered as flower garland. The different kinds of flowers with which the Sadguru should be worshipped are the guilelessness, freedom from ego, freedom from suffering when your desires are not fulfiled, freedom from arrogance, ignorance, deceit, hatered, agitation, jealousy and greed, non-violence, mastery over the senses, compassion, forgivenss and Enlightenment
Now take some flowers in your hands and place your hands in Kurma mudra
and close your eyes till the end of the mantra.
Now slowly open your eyes and offer the flowers at Swamiji's Paduka.
