Mitra Vinda
Mitra means friend. Maitri means friendship. Vinda means to Engross. Mitra Vinda is to engross in Friendship.
It is a prayer and a reminder to all of us to engross and walk together with a spirit of Friendship towards our goal of Fulfillment in Harmony and Peace.
Till the time we are alive we will be living with people. We also need a lot of help from the people and we also help people. So, for a peaceful atmosphere we need compassion and friendship.
For the first three days we saw offerings were given separately to different deities according to their liking and taste. One liked rice flour, someone likes rice, someone like black rice or Ghee.
But today all the different foods will be served, offered together to all the different Gods, Deities.
This is to show that we all have different tastes and liking. We like something a lot, but the same thing can be hated by someone else. We hate something, but the same thing is liked by others a lot.
Means, we all need to keep aside we our differences and work in a united spirit.
This Yajnya is a reminder to all of us that we will be living with people and if we want to live we need a spirit of friendship to be with them. And for a good and strong friendship we need and attitude of Service, Acceptance, Trust and Forgiveness.
We all may have superior talents. But we need to work together in one way or another. We need to harness all our energies towards one common goal.
We need to understand ‘WE’ matters more than ‘I’.
Prakriti Ishti
1. Agni – It is for all the harmony within the whole Galaxy which is around Sun.
2. Agni Shoma – Harmony in the movements and functioning of Sun and Moon. And they shall get their energy, so they can function well.
3. IndrayaVaimrudha – All the living organism- trees, animals and birds etc shall get whatever is required to satisfy their sense organs and needs so they can exist happily with each other. And we also say that one shall get whatever is right for them. As in Nakshatra Yag we prayed for different things. But now here we are surrendering those to the Divine Will. Means all of us shall receive said things only if it is Divine Will and not because we say so.
4. SwisthaKruta – To seek forgiveness for all the troubles and obstacles created by us for our happiness and progress towards the nature, animals and birds etc. Like when we are building our home we kill and destroy some animal and plant life. We use mobile phones, and their network towers are killing lot of birds due to their frequencies. And here we also seek blessings to do the Yajnyas again and again and we also confirm that we will reduce actions which destroy the natural life rhythms and life forms.
