SCIENCE BEHIND THE TRADITIONS AND RITUALS
(Rediscover Bharat (Series 1) – ‘Maharshi’ Dr. A. B.S. Sastry, Founder Director - SRIVT)
What are the achaaraas? those customs and rituals which are irrelevant in the modern times are known as Anaacharas, those which lead to negatives/ deleterious results are known as durAacharas and those achaaraas which give very positive and useful results are known are sadAacharas or generally known as Aacharas.
The SadAacharas are followed for, any one or more of the following purposes in the ***** Dharma.
The Aacharas are those give psychological. Physiological, family relation and bondage, social relations and bondage and national integration based positive results. Focusing on the above five points one can analyze very systematically all these Aacharas.
Psychologically beneficial Aacharas/ customs and rituals: Few examples are selected for explaining these type of Aacharas The morning and evening prayer, the positive songs and keerthans, the Vedic mantras which produce psycho linguistic and neuro linguistic effects, etc are psychologically useful Aacharas. They give extremely good response in the brain cells by way of producing curative hormones. The blessings of the elders and parents, the encouragement given to the children and also to those who are desperately struggling in the life, the words of consolation, the blessings like vijayee bhava, the Aacharas in social gathering and family functions, etc give psychologically positive results. (All these Aacharas are also spiritually connected, is the ***** way)
More examples: Reading a Puraana gives the messages of ups and downs/ failures and success/ pains and pleasures in the life. The stories of Sri Rama in Ramayana and that of Pandavas in Mahabharatha inform us that there are sufferings in the life and everyone should face them boldly. Reading Bhagavath Geetha is for mentally preparing to face any type of consequences and without failure practicing the Swadharama (one’s own duty). Through puranic story telling for the children, value based messages are given in the form of story capsules to remain in the memory for many years and to get the reminder whenever the abnormal pathway is opted to in their life. Visiting elders on festive occasions is for getting value and experience based advice from their life. Respecting teachers and elders, is for keeping the values in one’s life and in society for the learned people who continue to guide the society. Auspicious time selection for visits and performing ceremonies is to take extra mental precaution to see that everything is carefully / systematically programmed and planned.
Consulting a good astrologer is to see that things are meticulously planned and the blessings of the Vedic Devathaas are assured for optimism in ones endeavor (however this should not go to the level of superstition and should be carefully monitored). Performing pooja is mainly to see that good will come if good is practiced. And to give the feeling that rest is left to the divine mercy/ blessings. This blessing is directly assured (at least we feel so) by conducting poojas in presence of family and relatives (hence gives an opportunity for the family members to come together also). Worshiping the idols/ images having smiling faces (Prasanna vadanam) gives a psychological positive feeling of confidence (avoid the worship of weeping/ bleeding/ cruel images as it gives a negative influence in the mind). Chant positive Manthra/ Keerthan/ Bhajan for positive effect (neurolinguistic and psycho-linguistic) and never chant crying or weeping songs which also influence the mind negatively.
