श्रीराम प्रातस्मरणचा मराठी अर्थ

१) मन्द हास्याने, मधुर बोलण्याने आणि विशाल कपाळ असलेल्या, कानामध्ये हालणार्‍या कुंडलांनीं शोभून दिसणार्‍या, कर्णापर्यंत विशाल नेत्रांनी शोभून दिसणार्‍या अशा नेत्रांना आनंद देणार्‍या श्रीरघुनाथाच्या मुखारविंदाचे मी प्रातःकाळी स्मरण करतो. 

२) राक्षसांना भय उत्पन्न करणार्‍या, भक्तांना वरदान देणार्‍या आणि राजसभेत श्रीशंकरांचे धनुष्य तोडून सीतेचे ममगलमय पाणिग्रहण करणार्‍या श्रीरघुनाथांच्या करकमलांचे मी प्रातःकाळी स्मरण करतो.

३) वज्र, अंकुश आदि शुभचिन्हांनीयुक्त मला सुखावह असलेल्या, योगी आदी जनांकडून नेहमी सेवा केल्या-पूजल्या जाणार्‍या आणि गौतम पत्नीची ( अहिल्या ) शापापासून मुक्तता करणार्‍या श्रीरघुनाथांच्या चरणकमलांचे मी प्रातःकाळी स्मरण करतो.

४) जे वाणीमध्ये असलेल्या दोषांचा नाश करते, जे सर्व पापांचा नाश करते आणि ज्याचा जप शंकरासह राहण्याच्या इच्छेने पार्वतीने अत्यंत प्रेमाने श्रीविष्णुसहस्र नामाप्रमाणे केला. त्या श्रीरघुनाथाच्या नामाचा मी प्रातःकाळी जप करतो.

५) वेदवंदित असलेल्या, नीलकमळ व नीलमणि यांच्या मालांनी विभूषित, सर्व मुनि जनांचे ध्येय असलेल्या व त्यांना मुक्ति देणार्‍या श्रीरघुनाथांच्य मूर्तिचे मी प्रातःकाळी स्मरण करतो.

६) जो पुरुष प्रातःकाळी लवकर उठून या पांच श्र्लोकांचे पठण करतो तो श्रीरामचंद्रांच्या सेवकांमध्ये मुख्य होऊन, जो इतर लोकांस दुर्लभ आहे अशा श्रीहरि लोकास प्राप्त होतो. 

अशा रीतीने श्रीरामचंद्रांचे प्रातःस्मरण संपूर्ण झाले.    

Shri Ram PratahaSmranam

Today 16th March 2010 is Gudipadava. Hindu year starts from Shudha Pratipada (1st day)

of Chaitra (name of the month) masa (month). This day is called as Gudipadava. It is a very auspicious and holy day. Any new work is started on this day to have a success. It is a day when God Ram defeated Ravana conquered Lanka and then entered Ayodhya. It is also a day when God Brahmadev created this world. I am wishing a very happy, prosperous, healthy and wealthy new year to all.

Shri Ram Prataha Smranam. This is in Sanskrit. The name indicates that, this stotra is to be recited by getting up very early in the morning (Prataha). Devotees of Shri Ram recite this stotra early in the morning. They believe that by remembering (Smaranam) Shri Ram early in the morning their day will begin and end without any trouble, happily and peacefully and they will be successful in their endeavors. Belief, Faith and Devotion works wonders in anybody’s life.

1) I remember lotus like beautiful face of Shri Raghunath (Shri Ram) early in the morning which has a sweet smile, soft and sweet talk, with a broad forehead, with beautiful swinging earrings in the ears, with big eyes reaching up to the ears which is looking pleasant to my eyes.

2) I remember the lotus like hands of shri Raghunath early in the morning which are making fear in the minds of Rakshasaja (Demons), which are for giving blessings to the devotees and which have broken the bow of God Shiva and married Sita in the Rajasabha (royal court).

3) I remember the lotus like feet of shri Raghunath early in the morning which are having auspicious signs such as Vajra and Ankush etc, which are worshiped and offered holy service by Yogies and Rushies and these feet have removed the curse and sufferings of the wife (Ahilya) of Goutamrushi.

4) I remember and recite the name of shri Raghunath early in the morning which makes us free from sins, which removes flaw, disorder from our speech and which was recited by Parvati (Wife of God Shiva) just like pious One thousand names God Vishnu’s with a desire/ambition to marry/stay with God Shiva.

5) I remember shri Raghunath early in the morning, who is worshiped in Vedas, who has a blue color just like blue lotus and blue jewel, who is looking very beautiful by wearing swinging garlands of pearls and who is offering his blessings to Rushies, Munies and devotees and making them free from bondage of life.

6) Any devotee who by rising early in the morning recites the above 5 shlokas (Stanzas) every day becomes beloved of God Rama, becomes chief among the devotees of God Rama who serve him always. Finally at the end of life reach to the God Hari loka (The kingdom God Vishnu).

Thus here ends the God Rama PratahaSmaranam.

Thought for the Day
There is only one breath. All are made of the same clay. The light within all is the same.
------Guru Granth Sahib.


Success
The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes.
----Earl of Beaconsfield.
