Effective Daily Gayatri Upasana
A Simple and Safe Mode of Daily Gayatri-Upasana-I
Gayatri-Upasana can be performed mentally at any time in any circumstance. It is doubtlessly beneficial in every condition. Nevertheless, performing it regularly and religiously has greater significance and spiritual impact. Any experiment or task if conducted systematically with due concentration and punctuality assures completion and comprehensive output. The same is true of devotional practices. The rituals associated with the daily upasana of Gayatri are devised to help desired mental and emotional conditioning of the sadhaka. These are simple and could be practised by every one. It should be noted that these are not mere customs or mechanical acts. Rather, these are derived from in-depth understanding of the spiritual nature of human self. For adept performance of daily upasana it is important to note the implications and sentiments associated with them as highlighted below.
One is free to choose the sakara or nirakara mode of upasana as per his mental makeup. One needs to select an appropriate place where he or she could perform the upasana at the scheduled time every day without any disturbance. Usually a separate room or a quiet corner of a room in the house is suitable for this purpose. Or, one may go to a nearby temple, on a bank of a river or in a garden and adjust the daily practice at such a time and spot which is relatively silent…. The place of worship (pajasthali) should be kept clean. In sakara upasana, a photo of Gayatri Mata is placed on a small stool and is worshiped every day by flowers etc. (A special photograph for this “devasthapana” are available at Shantikunj,Hardwar
Early morning is the best time for regular upasana. One should commence it only after the routine cleansing of the body. In case of sickness or weather constraints, bathing could be replaced by partial cleaning or sponging. The pancakarma sandhya as described below should be performed through heart before japa and dhyana in the daily upasana. This could be relaxed in case of travelling etc. In similar unavoidable conditions, the daily upasana could be performed only by japa and dhyana.
