Ayushya Suktam | Powerful chanting with lyrics | Soul Sadhana

Описание: Äyuṣya-Sūktam 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 devatās are only bhoga-śarīra and not karma-śarīra. The possibility of complete longevity by puruṣārtha - self-effort, the full term of life is achieved by specific prayer such as Äyuṣya-Sūktam.

The Sūktam has nine mantras praying for long life. The prayer is addressed to various deities such as Brahmā, Śiva, the Sun, and all the celestials who are guardians of the universe.

Äyuḥ = all facets of mental and physical health and nourishment, and thus is the purpose of this Sūktam.

Äyuṣyam = Promoting long healthy prayerful Dhārmic life in every auspicious way. This is the motive and spirit in which you can listen to or chant this mantra.

All mantras/sūktam cannot be used for homam (fire-ritual). Thankfully, Äyuṣya-Sūktam can be/is used in performing ‘Äyuṣya-homam’. It is/can be performed on one’s nakṣatra-birthday. The whole ritual could be – Gaṇapati-Pūjā/homam, Navagraha-homam, Mahā-mṛtyuñjaya-homam, Bhāgya-sūktam, and Äyuṣya-homam’. If four Ṛtviks (Priests) are performing, each may offer 27 oblations to make a total of 108 oblations for ‘Äyuṣya-homam’.

In the absence of fire-ritual, simple chanting can be done.
