Introduction to Sandhyavandhanam

Sandhyavandana is a mandatory religious ritual that needs to be performed by all twice-born people of Hinduism. Especially brahmins who are initiated into the sacred thread ceremony called as Upanayanam, and instructed in its execution by a Guru (a qualified spiritual teacher). Sandhyavandanam consists of excerpts from the Vedas that are to be performed thrice daily at morning (prātaḥsaṃdhyā), at noon (mādhyānika), and in the evening (sāyaṃsaṃdhyā).
Sandhyavandanam is the oldest extant liturgy in world religion. It may be a practice descended from the much older daily Agnihotra.

Sandhyavandanam literally means salutation to Sandhya. Sandhya literally means transition moments of the day namely the two twilight: dawn and dusk and the solar noon. Thus Sandhyavandanam means salutation to twilight or solar noon.

The term sandhyā is also used by itself in the sense of "daily practice" to refer to the performance of these devotions at the opening and closing of the day. [1][2]
[3][4] The steps in the Sandhyavandan always include the following essential ones:
1. Achamana consists of Nama Sankirthana---taking the names of the Lord
2. Pranayama is the ritual purification of internals via breathing exercises
3. Marjana is a ritual self-purification
4. Mantra Prokshanam is a prayer for atonement of sins
5. Aghamarshana (performed by some schools, especially Rig Vedins) is a prayer for forgiveness of sins
6. Gayathri japa is meditation
7. Upasthanam is prayer to Mitra (in the morning prayer) & Varuna (in the evening prayer)
8. AbhivAdana is a salutory introduction offered to all deities. It usually follows a prostration to the deities of each direction ("dikpaalas")

Lunch at Uduppi Hotel Pudupatti

On 09 December 2012, when I entered Uduppi hotel at Pudupatti (Pon. Puduppatti) with great hunger, it was lunch time. I opted to eat a square meal, ordered the same (Muzhuch Chaappaadu) and waited.

Meanwhile my eyes scanned all around the wall displays and recorded in my mind all beautifully presented photo stills, mainly the temples of Ponnamaravathi.

The waiter brought a nicely cut, green colour, previously cleaned fresh plantain leaf (Banana leaf), measuring about two feet length and one and half feet width (Adengappa!) and placed on the dining table spread opened with great care and kind.

A waterman kept a sparkling stainless steel tumbler measuring about 250 millilitres (250 Milliliters) at the left side of the leaf, filled it with water and placed a water filled jug adjacent to it.

A subjiwala waiter, who is considered to be next to the main waiter, who brings and places on the leaf Chithraannam and / or koottukkari offered four different varieties of food preparations out of vegetable varieties.

Another sub supplier placed a cup of paayaasam (payasam), a dessert to be taken after the meals, at the right side of the leaf.

One new smart employee politely placed a thin, bright, pale yellow, crispy, deep fried, round appalam (Pappad in Hindi) at the right side of the leaf.  

The major constituent of the meal, the nicely cooked rice, was placed at the middle of the leaf. (Earlier, the rice used to be supplied only once in fixed quantity. Now the practice is changed. Rice is being served in portions repeatedly on an as required basis.)

I had the rice repeatedly, mixed with sambar, vaththakkuzhambu, (Vatral Kulambu), Rasam and moru (butter milk) one after another, in the same plantain leaf, enjoying all the side dishes that include ‘tomato masala’. Last but not the least that I had and enjoyed was ‘Payasam’. Some people prefer to take payasam in between rice with rasam and that with moru.

Taking a healthy and tasty lunch in Uduppi Hotel, Shree Krishna Bhavan, on plantain leaf, by spending only Rs.45/-, without using any spoon, is a pleasurable enjoyment besides filling stomach satisfactorily.

Uduppi Pongal

Have you ever tasted the ghee shining Venpongal at Uduppi hotel of PON.Puduppatti, Ponnamaravathi? If not please visit the hotel as early as possible and experience the pleasure of having it. The hotel is in Pudukkottai district of Tamilnadu, India.

When I was studying in Valampuri Vaduganathan High School (now higher secondary school), I used to prepare throughout the night under the street lamps for examinations. One day, in the early morning, at about 5 O’ clock, I visited Uduppi hotel for a cup of strong coffee. At that time I saw my teacher Mr. Ananthanarayanan taking Pongal as his breakfast with great enjoyment and satisfaction. Not only he but also many regular customers were enjoying the delicious dish with coconut chutney and sambar. Parcel specialist of those days Mr. Perumal was busy in packing several Pongal.

On returning from Uduppi hotel, I enquired my father Mr. M. Natarajan Achari (Tinsmith) about the craving for eating Pongal at Uduppi hotel. He replied that he also used to take Pongal everyday early in the morning not at 5 O’ clock but after 6 O’clock. The next day I got the chance of having Uduppi Pongal. It was a wonderful experience for the taste buds of my tongue. The dish was enriched with ghee, cashew nuts, black peppers etc, with good aroma and completely satisfied me in all respects.

Form then onwards, Uduppi Pongal occupied a portion of my tiffin box, till I completed my B.Sc., degree in chemistry at V.S.Sivalingam Chettiar Government Arts College Pulankurichi.

It is the ability of this hotel to maintain the same standard of Pongal till today.
