Lyrics & translation of Surya Mantra 'Tat Savitur Vrnimahe Vayam'..

Join us on Facebook 

Number of beautiful hymns are present in our Veda's to praise the Sun (Surya devta). Today I heard one of the hymn,  when I was watching Mahabharat on Star Plus.

In today's episode, this was played in the background, while Karan (son of solar deity Sun) was offering argh to Surya Narayan:

तत सवितुर वर्णीमहे वयं देवस्य भोजनम
शरेष्ठं सर्वधातमं तुरम भगस्य धीमहि ||
विश्वानि देव सवितर दुरितानि परा सुव |
यद भद्रं तन न आ सुव ||

Tat savitur vrnīmahe vayam devasya bhojanam |
Srestham sarvadhātamam turam bhaghasya dhīmahi ||
Viśvāni deva savitar duritāni parā suva |
Yad bhadram tan na ā suva ||

It means,
We desire of Savitar the God this fortune much to be enjoyed,
The best, all-yielding, glorious gift of Bhaga we would gladly win..
Savitar, God, send far away all mourning and tragedies,
And send us only what is good..

That was taken from 1st and 5th verse of Rigveda's shlok (hymn) number 82.  Here is the whole hymn from verse no. 1 to 9th..

1) तत सवितुर वर्णीमहे वयं देवस्य भोजनम |
शरेष्ठं सर्वधातमं तुरम भगस्य धीमहि ||

Tat savitur vrnīmahe vayam devasya bhojanam |
Srestham sarvadhātamam turam bhaghasya dhīmahi ||

We desire of the God Savitar, this fortune much to be enjoyed,
The best and all sustaining, glorious gift of Bhaga we would gladly win..

2) अस्य हि सवयशस्तरं सवितुः कच चन परियम |
न मिनन्ति सवराज्यम ||

Asya hi svayaśastaram savituh kac cana priyam |
Na minanti svarājyam ||

Savitar's own supremacy, most magnificent and adored of all,
No one diminished in aught (anything at all)..

3) स हि रत्नानि दाशुषे सुवाति सविता भगः |
तम भागं चित्रम ईमहे ||

Sa hi ratnāni dāśuse suvāti savitā bhaghah |
Tam bhāgham citram īmahe ||

For Savitar, who is Bhaga shall send riches to his worshipper,
That amazing portion we pray..

4) अद्या नो देव सवितः परजावत सावीः सौभगम |
परा दुष्वप्न्यं सुव ||

Adyā no deva savitah prajāvat sāvīh saubhagham |
Parā dusvapnyam suva ||

God Savitar , send us this day,  prosperity with offspring,
thou(you) drive the evil dream away..

5) विश्वानि देव सवितर दुरितानि परा सुव |
यद भद्रं तन न आ सुव ||

Viśvāni deva savitar duritāni parā suva |
Yad bhadram tan na ā suva ||

Savitar, God, send far away all mourning and tragedies,
And send us only what is good..

6) अनागसो अदितये देवस्य सवितुः सवे |
विश्वा वामानि धीमहि ||

Anāghaso aditaye devasya savituh save |
Viśvā vāmāni dhīmahi ||

Sinless in sight of Aditi through the God Savitar's influence,
may we obtain all lovely things..

7) आ विश्वदेवं सत्पतिं सूक्तैर अद्या वर्णीमहे |
सत्यसवं सवितारम ||

ā viśvadevam satpatim sūktair adyā vrnīmahe |
Satyasavam savitāram ||

We with our hymns this day opt for the general God, Lord of the good,
Savitr whose verdict's are true.

8) य इमे उभे अहनी पुर एत्य अप्रयुछन |
सवाधीर देवः सविता ||

Ya ime ubhe ahanī pura ety aprayuchan |
Svādhīr devah savitā ||

He who for ever cautious leads these Twain(twain means two), the Day and Night,
Is Savitar the thoughtful God..

9) य इमा विश्वा जातान्य आश्रावयति शलोकेन |
पर च सुवाति सविता ||

Ya imā viśvā jātāny āśrāvayati ślokena |
Ypra ca suvāti savitā ||

He who gives glory unto all these living creatures with the song,
brings them forth, is Savitar.

ALSO READ: Mahabharat explains all aspects of life..

The 1st mantra is in Anustup Chhanda, whereas the following ones from the 2nd to the 9th ones are in the Gayatri Chhanda. Anustup Chhanda has four lines. Whereas, Gayatri chhanda consist of three padas or lines, each line having eight syllables.

For those uninitiated, Chhanda is the metre that is used, and can be derived from the sequence of LONG (guru - heavy) and SHORT (laghu - light) syllables. 

I am sure you must be confused, who is Savita or Savitar or Savitr  or Savitah?.. Well Savita is a symbol of the Divine. On the eternity / infinite plane , Savita means God. Whereas on the physical plane, it means Sun. On the supernatural plane it means cleverness and on the biological plane, it means liveliness.

In Hindu Shastra's the Surya is described as Savita and is one of the Aditya's.  According to Rigveda, Aditya's are the seven deities (dev) of the heaven, namely Varuna, Mitra, Aryaman, Bhaga, Daksha, Anśa and Savitar.

In our Universe, Surya/Sun/Savita is the source of all the things. It is through His Divine Grace that the Universe exists.

The 'Savitur' in the Gayatri Mantra is derived from Savita, that's why the Gayatri Mantra is often referred as the Savitri Mantra as this magical mantra speaks of the Sun.

तत सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि |
धियो यो नः परचोदयात ||

Tat saviturvarenyam bhargho devasya dhīmahi|
Dhiyo yo nah pracodayāt ||

May we attain that excellent glory of Savitar the God, so May he motivate our prayers.

I would like to thank the viewers, especially the facebook fans for their appreciation for every avatar that I have adopted be it Palak or Laccha or Palak’s Mom.” According to Kapil’s dearest Daadi aka Ali Asgar, “Whoever thought that a perpetually drunk grandmother could become such a rage?

The show will highlight the most inspirational stories of revered Bollywood celebrities which speak about the challenges and testing times that they have experienced before winnings accolades and achieving success. The show also marks Anupam Kher’s first foray into television production and is slated to commence shoot by end of May 2014.

The Anupam Kher Show - Kucch Bhi Ho Sakta Hai is a show which spreads the message that nothing is impossible. A small-screen extension of Anupam Kher’s biographical theatre venture of the same name, the show furthers Anupam Kher’s core belief that life’s biggest lessons arise from failure. On the show, Anupam Kher will highlight inspirational stories of determination and perseverance of famous Bollywood celebrities whose hardwork and belief in themselves has brought them to the silver lining of an otherwise dark and gloomy cloud of life.

Speaking about the show, Raj Nayak, CEO – COLORS, said, “While people know Anupam Kher – the star, there’s much more to him as a human being. His own story is extremely inspirational and now he’s going to help others like him talk to our viewers about their life experiences. We are sure that with a host like Anupam on board, this show will make them laugh, cry, and inspire at the same time.”

Commenting on the show’s concept, Anupam Kher, Producer of The Anupam Kher Production, said, “Television is a medium that has been close to my heart and developing and hosting this show, on COLORS, is like a homecoming of sorts. Moreover, the show is my first foray into television production and it’s my belief that sharing stories of struggles, self-motivation and success of achievers from different walks of life will be the perfect onset of my journey into this unexplored territory.”

Lyrics & Translation of Ek Villian's song 'Koi Mujhko Yoon Mila Hai Jaise Banjaare Ko Ghar'

Join us on Facebook 

Jise zindagi dhoondh rahi hai,kya ye woh makaam mera hai?
Yahaan chain se bas ruk jaoon, kyun dil ye mujhe kehta hai?
 
What my life is searching for, is this the same destination?
Just to rest here forever peacefully, why does my heart wish that?

Jazbaat naye se mile hain, jaane kya asar ye hua hai..
Ek aas mili phir mujhko, jo qubool kisi ne kiya hai..
 
I’ve found new emotions,I don’t know what this effect is..
I’ve found a new hope, As someone has finally accepted me..

Kisi shaayar ki ghazal, jo de ruh ko sukoon ke pal,
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..

Like some poet’s beautiful poem, which gives moments of peace to the soul,
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..

Naye mausam ki seher, ya sard mein dopahar..
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..

The mornings of a new season, or an afternoons in the winters,
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..

Jaise koi kinaara, deta ho sahaara
Mujhe wo mila kisi mod par..
Koi raat ka taara, karta ho ujaala..waise hi roshan kare wo sheher..

The way some shore gives support to someone who was about to drown, I found her on some turn..

Like a star that shines at night, in the same way, she lightens up the city..

Dard mere wo bhula hi gaya, kuch aise asar hua..
Jeena mujhe wo phir se sikha raha..

She made me forget my pains, such an effect I had on me..
She is teaching me how to live again..

Jaise baarish kar de tar, ya marham dard par,
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..

Like the rain which drenches everything or the satisfaction that one has after applying ointment on the wound..
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..

Naye mausam ki seher, ya sard mein dopahar..
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..

The mornings of a new season, or an afternoons in the winters,
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..

Muskaata yeh chehra, deta hai jo pehra..jaane chhupata kya dil ka samandar.
Auron ko toh hardam, saaya deta hai, woh dhoop mein hai khada khud magar..

This smiling face is protecting me, yet no one knows what is hiding in the ocean of her heart
She gives shade to everyone else, while standing in the sun herself

Chot lagi hai usse phit kyun mehsoos mujhe hoo raha?
Dil tu bata de kya hai iraada tera?

Even when she is wounded why do I feel the pain?
Oh my heart! tell me what are Your intentions?

Hmm..Main parinda besabar, tha uda jo darbadar..
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..
 
I was a restless bird that was flying from place to place..
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..

Naye mausam ki seher, ya sardi mein dopahar..
Koi mujh ko yoon mila hai, jaise banjaare ko ghar..
Jaise banjaare ko ghar, jaise banjaare ko ghar..
Jaise banjaare ko ghar, jaise banjaare ko ghar..

The mornings of a new season, or an afternoons in the winters,
I've found someone as a wanderer finds home..
A wanderer has found a home, a wanderer has found a home..
A wanderer has found a home, a wanderer has found a home..

Ajaz Khan or Gauhar Khan, who wore the controversial crown in this season on Khatron Ke Khiladi?

Join us on Facebook 

Jo season mein drama nah ho toh maza kya? This season of action reality show Khatron Ke Khiladi – Darr ka blockbuster hosted by ace maestro Rohit Shetty shot in the scenic beauty of Cape Town.

We witnessed seventeen celebrity contestants who took up the most exciting challenge to fight their inner fears. But we had two old friends who were seen in constant lime light. No goodies for guessing: The old fame – Talkative Gauhar Khan and the wild card entrant Ajaz Khan.

Gauhar Khan was the only contestant who had the most fears in this season of Khatron Ke Khiladi. She was seen sobbing, yelling, fainting using either of the emotions before every stunt be it during the ice- box stunt where she was eliminated, fighting with creepy crawlies or diving in the tanks with cayman and baby crocs.

On the other hand as soon as Ajaz Khan entered we saw him getting into a tiff with Karanvir Bohra over a task. It was believed that it was the first fight of the season after the wild card entry. Ajaz Khan also self-claimed to be approached by the host Rohit Shetty for the movie.  However he was eliminated by the bold and beautiful UK beauty Deana Uppal in the elimination round.

So who wore the crown better this season?
