Veda is derived from 'vid' meaning to know, from vid comes vidyaa
which means imparting knowledge. To sum up, Veda means a storehouse of
worldly and spiritual knowledge. The oldest text in the world, Vedas
teaches mankind to be perfect. It refers human beings as Children of
Immortality and amends our vision so that we are able to percept unity
in diversity. Hinduism narrates about the five great sacrifices or
panchamahayagnas. Below are the significance:
Brahma Yagnam/Sandhya Vandanam...
Practicing it helps ward
off stress and improves self-esteem. Sandhya also means union of
jivatma/micro with paramatma/macro. Chanting these mantras help gain
self confidence.
Pitru Yagna...
This yagna is dedicated to parents and gurus
and speaks about shradam. Accordingly, Shradam or rituals for the dead
lose all meaning if one do not respect, revere and take care of parents
while they are alive.
