We are not taking material object
meaning [पादार्थिक
अर्थ] of this Mantra. ‘प्प्राणन्तेशुन्धामि’ means to pure our breath or fresh air but
its literature meaning is for purifying the soul. ‘व्वाचन्तेशुन्धामि’
means not to purify tounge
but to purify our speech by speaking sweet, speaking truth, speaking carefully.
‘चक्षुस्तेशुन्धामि’ menas not to wash-purify eyes but to be vigilant
and foresightedness etc. so on and so forth.
व्वाचन्तेशुन्धामि…vvācanteśundhāmi means to make pure our
speech. By this phrase, Veda says whatever you speak should be pure means
should have a weight. Best meaning is to
enchant the Devi-Deva mantras before sleep and gain when we wake up in the
morning. We always should speak truth is
the way in which we can purify our speech. We should never use satire, bad,
fraudulent and vulgar speech instead; we should sweetly speak truth ‘सत्यं वद मधुरं वद’. The
massage is ‘speak sweet, speak truth and be careful when speaking’.
‘प्प्राणन्तेशुन्धामि... pprāṇanteśundhāmi’ is to make pure our soul heart. We sometimes find people
very good sweet speaker but are real culprit at heart. What you speak sould be
with pure heart-soul. There should be
true, holy spirit in our act and behaviour. As per Vedic literature there are
five winds in our body and we should purify them, then our bodily life and
spiritual life can joined the process of moxa. It is said in our Upnishad ‘प्राणं ब्रह्म’. What we
speak should be in our heart and mind. If mind, heart and speech working in
deliberate differnt way, it drag us to Vikarama is the real massage of this
phrase of mantra.
‘चक्षुस्तेशुन्धामि... cakṣusteśundhāmi’ what you see impact on
your speech and spirit is a simple experience of humankind so third phrase is
to purify our eyes i.e. our sight. We should always have foresight to see in
future to protect us. We should always have foresight for material happiness
and thereby in relaxation spiritual awareness. Another meaning is to view &
observe lord before sleep and as soon as we awake. When we see idol of our worshiped lord we
should have micro vision or insight to see the virtues and potency power [aura]
of god. In the modern era of television-cinema, we should not see such things,
serials or episodes that knowingly unknowingly spoil our life and spirit. We
always tend to lose our prudence and therefore this kind of mantras are always
live to protect us, the only requisite is to have a vision and literature
understanding of it. So be always vigilant to yourself and thereby to society
as a whole is the massage of this phrase.
‘श्र्श्रोत्रन्तेशुन्धामि…śrśrotranteśundhāmi’ means to purify our
acoustic attribute of material body so that we can hear-learn-visualize far
from where we are and can make join our
soul to supreme soul is the real massage. ‘श्रुतं हरति पापानि’ is the phrase means by listening
good things our sins are removed means we find our way not to do sins and
expiation for what we did. I will put this in support here means by hearing
listening to Vedic literature understandings we can develop the process of real
learning of spiritual and material awareness of our welfare. We can uplift our
standard of living and spirit by listening to this Vedic literature is the
massage of this phrase.
‘नाभिन्तेशुन्धामि…nābhinteśundhāmi’ this is very important and its vedic literature meaning is hard to
understand but it pointed at yoga maraga [meditation]. Kundlini Yoga is
advocated here I think. Powerfull and
qualified guru is required for this so no comments here. The main purpose of
this phrase is to protect navel from roundwarms in tropical country like Inida.
The navel is mark of detached umbilicus i.e.
the tube that fed us
and kept us alive while we were in our mother’s womb. According to Aurveda,
the navel is an important site in the human body. Nearly 72,000 subtle nerves
or nadis converge in this area. By
the principles of Ayurveda and yoga, either the human body is made up of six
chakras, with the Manipura chakra located at the spine directly behind the
navel or the solar plexus, depending on the system, while its kshetram, or
superficial activation point, is located directly on the navel and represents
the element fire. Therefore,
its purification is required for moxa marga. According to our Puranas grand
lord Shri Brahma is the lord of creation incarnated from the navel of Lord Shri
MahaVishnuji which pointing at the creative power of navel.
‘मेड्ढ्रन्तेशुन्धामि…meḍḍhranteśundhāmi’ means to purify our secret organs in broader sense.
Simply we should control our Vikama. We should have a legal consensual
sex with one partner to protect our physique from dreadful disease and
enhance-develop our metaphysical body for ultimate bliss. It would be apt here
to mention the character of Lord Shri Ramji to understand this phrase.
‘पायुन्तेशुन्धामि... pāyunteśundhāmi’ means to purify our feet-legs. We
should go to temple every day to purify legs. The best way to purify our feet
is to falling at parent’s feet i.e. to take blessings of our parents & elders.
We should always be ready to step forward to take on any works for developments
and welfare of society. Lord Shri Ganeshaji does circumambulation of parents
lord Shri Shiva-Parvati when asked to do it of earth. This is resembled to
incarnation of Shri Vamana of Lord Shri MahaVishnuji where lord take away
everything from King Shri Baliji for the welfare and redevelopment of the
society in three steps.
‘चरित्रांस्तेशुन्धामि…caritrāṁsteśundhāmi’ we should always ready to purify our character thru which we
establish the standard of life like lord Shri Ramji known as
marayadapurshottama. When we implement the rest phrases as said above in our
life I think our character will automatically be purified.
