10 Principles of Arya Samaj 1. God is the primary source of all true knowledge and all that is known by its means.(at the beginning of creation, nearly 2 Billion years ago, God gave the knowledge of 4 Vedas to four learned Rishis named Agni, Vayu, Aditya and Angira. Four Vedas called Rig Ved, Yajur Ved, Sam Ved and Atharva Ved contain all true knowledge, spiritual and scientific, known to the world.) 2. God is existent, intelligent and blissful. He is formless, omnipotent, just, merciful, unborn, infinite, invariable (unchangeable), having no beginning, matchless (unparalleled), the support of all, the master of all, omnipresent, omniscient, ever young (imperishable), immortal, fearless, eternal, holy and creator of universe. To him alone worship is due. 3. Vedas are the scripture of all true knowledge. It is paramount duty of all Aryan to read them, teach and recite them to others. 4. All human beings should always be ready to accept the truth and give up untruth. 5. All our actions should be according to the principles of Dharma i.e. after differentiating right from wrong. 6. The primary aim of Arya Samaj is to do good to the human beings of whole world i.e. to its physical, spiritual and social welfare. 7. All human beings ought to be treated with love, justice and according to their merits as dictated by Dharma. 8. We should all promote knowledge (Vidya) and dispel ignorance (Avidya). 9. One should not be content with one's own welfare alone but should look for one's welfare in the welfare of all others. 10. In matters which affect the well being of all people an individual should subordinate any personal rights that are in conflict with the wishes of the majority. In matters that affect him/her alone he/she is free to exercise his/her human rights. Page 3

Noble Deeds Gives Happiness Sarasvati devayanto havante sarasvatimadhvare tayamane l Sarasvatim sukrto havante sarasvatdasuse varyam dat ll सरस वत द वर न त हवन त सरस वत मध वर त र म न सरस वत स क त हवन त सरस वत द श ष व र द त अथवयव द: १८.०१.४१ Meaning in Text Order Sarasvaim = scientific Vedic knowledge Devayantah = desirous of divine qualities Havante = welcome Sarasvatim = divine knowledge Adhvare = in sublime deeds (in Yajna) Tayamane = extending Sarasvatim= the divine entity of knowledge Sukrtah = noble deeds Havante = call for Sarasvati = the knowledge Dasuse = for dedicated people Varyam = meritorious wealth Dat = bestows on us. Meaning Atharva Veda 18.1.41 The desirous of divinity call for Sarasvati. They call for sarasvti while extending sublime deeds. The performer of noble deeds invoke Page 4

Sarasvati and it showers desired blessings to those who dedicate their achievements for society. Contemplation Those who are desirous of attainment of divinity, they invoke the sarasvti (the knowledge). Sarasvati is such stream of divinity which springs out from God flowing on the high mounts of spiritualism with the flow of its waves and immerses the soul, intellect and mind. This ardent flow makes man a divine, makes him the worshipper of divinity. The life of a human being is incomplete without having bath in the waves of this river. The performers of Yajna while perming this sublime act invoke Sarasvati for peace and traquility. It is an ignorance to have the dream of peace and divinity without having the flow of Sarasvati in mind. It is the divinity of sarsvati which makes yajna fruitful so for peace is concerned whether it is for an individual or society. The performer of noble deeds invokes Sarasvati. Without having bath in the river of Sarasvati and washing the soul, mind, vital breath and speech there is no rise of noble deeds in life. There is a need for divine inspiration to engage in noble deeds. When with the grace of God, the inspiration to the soul then all actions and all the business of life become truthful (satyam), auspicious (sivam) and beautiful (sundram)l. Sarasvati showers boon of prosperity to those who share their achievements with others. Many sages feel satisfied with their own spiritual achievements but when there is no peace in society, the achievement of few has no sense. Those who achieve success and dedicate those successes to society, they are blessed more and more prosperity and make them the richest people of spiritual wealth. O Sarasvati! We invoke you to flow in us with your divine qualities. By Mr Krishan Chopra Page 5

PANCHMAHAYAJNA Till now we have written about 1.Sandhyopaasanam (Brahma- Yajna) and 2.Deva- Yajna. Now we will write about the remaining three Yajna. These are called 3. Balivaishvadeva Yajna, 4. Pitri Yajna and 5. Atithi Yajna. 3. BALIVAISHVADEVA YAJNA - The aim of this Yajna is to provide food and water for the animals like birds, dogs, cats and insects etc. It is a duty of all human beings to care for animals as well. This Yajna is performed by the cook after he/she has finished cooking. He/she offers ten oblations of unsalted cooked food in the burning fire of a fire place in the kitchen. If daily Havan is performed or whenever Havan is performed in the household then Yajman can offer these ten oblations in Havan Kund after the final oblation (Purna Aahuti). These ten oblations are as following. 1. Om Agneya Swaahaa. 2. Om Somaaya Swaahaa. 3. Om Agnisomaabhyaam Swaaha. 4. Om Vishvebhyo Devebhyah Swaaha. 5. Om Dhanvantaraye Swaaha. 6. Om Kuhvai Swaaha. 7. Om Anumatyai Swaaha. 8. Om Prajaapataye Swaaha. 9. Om sah Dhyavaaprithvibhyaam Swaaha. 10. Om Swishtakrite Swaaha. Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati has instructed to keep portions of food in different directions on a broad tree leaf (Pattal) or a large flat mettalic plate (Thaali) after reciting following Mantras. 1. Om Saanugaayendraaya Namah. - Towards East 2. Om Saanugaaya Yamaaya Namah. - Towards South 3. Om Saanugaaya varunaaya Namah. - Towards West 4. Om Saanugaaya Somaaya Namah. - Towards North 5. Om Marudbhyo Namah. - Towards door of the house 6. Om Adabhyo Namah. - In Water 7. Om Vanaspatibhyo Namah. - In Pesal (Musal) and Mortar (Ukhal) Page 12

8. Om Shriyai Namah. - Towards North - Eastern corner 9. Om Bhadrakaalyai Namah.-Towards South - West corner 10. Om Brahmapatye/Brama Namah. - In the Middle 11. Om Vaastupataye Namah. - In the Middle 12. Om Vishvebhyo Devebhyo Namah. - Towards up 13. Om Vivaacharebhyo Bhutebhyo Namah. - Towards up 14. Om Naktachaaribhyo Bhutebhyo Namah- Towards up 15. Om Sarvaatmabhutaye Namah. - Towards back 16. Om Pitribhyah Svadhaayibhyah Svadhaa Namah. - In South again. Towards the end a person should put six portions of food items, made of various cereals in Ghee and salt, on earth for the benefit of dogs, depraved people, wicked people, people in habit of committing sins on a regular basis, crow and insects. This act is supported by Manusmriti 3.92. Shunaam Cha Patitaanaam Cha Shwapachaam Paaproginaam. Vaayasaanaam Kriminaam Cha Shankairnirvaped Bhuvi. 4. Pitri Yajna- This Yajna is about making people understand and remember their duties towards their parents. We do not offer any oblation in this Yajna. To obey our parents and elders while they are alive, to serve them the best way we can, to learn from their knowledge and experience and to respect them all the time is known as Pitri Yajna. To serve one's parents to their full satisfaction with great respect and devotion while they are alive is the best Shraaddh and Tarpan. Shraaddh performed under guidance of some greedy Pauranic Pundits after the death of one's parents is totally against the teachings of Vedas. Shraaddh and Tarpan regarding dead people as written in Pauranic books does not serve any purpose towards dead people. But these acts against teachings of Vedas can be harmful to relatives regarding waste of their valuable time and money. After death a soul either Page 13

enters inside the physical body of a newly born animal or human or achieves Salvation according to the deeds of the dead person. This aspect is already written in detail under Cremation Sacrament. It is paramount duty of all human beings to serve their parents and teachers with full respect and devotion. 5. Atithi Yajna- This yajna is another about making people understand, aware and remember their duties towards guests (Atithi). We do not offer any oblation in Havan Kund in this yajna. Similar to our parents who brought us in this world we are all indebted to our teachers, Aacharya, Rishis and Maharishis who are not biased, live life with dignity, speak truth and who are devout, religious and intelligent. These kind of people help us in living a good and successful life by imparting their knowledge and experience to us. So to obey them, to serve them with full respect and devotion is our duty. Brahmachaari, Vaanprasthi and Sanyaasi people can come/turn up to a Grihasthi (Household) person's house at any time with or without a prior information. Even in these circumstances we must serve them with full respect and devotion. This is a true Atithi Yajna. Now the PANCHMAHAYAJNA English translation is complete.
