Why Is Jal (Water) Offered to Surya Bhagwan (Sun)?
Our body has a great need for colors, as these are vital for the well-being of the different parts of our body system. It may surprise many to know that several parts of the human body have different
@LostTemple7 @AnuSatheesh5 Why Is Jal (Water) Offered to Surya Bhagwan (Sun)?
colors. Our nerves are blue, the heart is red, kidneys & pancreas are brownish, the bones are white, & the brain nerves are in rainbow colors.
The rays of the sun are white, but when passed through a medium, they get broken into their basic hues. When we offer water or jal in the
morning to the rising sun in the prescribed manner, the sheet of water falling on to the ground works as a medium to split the sun’s rays into a spectrum of colors & enters our body to benefit us. If you wish to offer water to the sun, you must do it in the correct & prescribed
manner. Stand facing the Sun with a vessel full of water. Hold the vessel at a level between the sun & your eyes. Then pour out the water slowly to the ground, allowing the sun’s rays to pass through the sheet of water falling on the ground. The rays of the sun, while passing
through the offered water, will break into their basic colors & fall on the face & thus enter the body of the person offering the water to benefit him spiritually as well as physically. However, some people hold the view that the water vessel should be held at chest level.
Receiving solar energy in this manner taps a natural source of Mother Nature for our benefit, with no side effects. Hindu scriptures state that the ultraviolet rays of the sun destroy the bacteria of several deadly diseases. Therefore, while offering water, a mantra is uttered:
"Om Rogiam Vinashaya Dev Jyoti Namaste"
Besides curing & warding off diseases, one improves ones eyesight too by worshiping Surya Bhagwan. Astrologically, the Sun is symbolic of one’s
eyes, soul & father. Therefore, offering water to Surya mitigates past life karma, ill deeds
done against one’s father, enhances eyesight & elevates one spiritually.
Om Suryah Namah 🙏

Experiences with Periva - Care for the Atheists too!
It was the beginning of May, with the sun at its scorching best. There was a political meeting opposite to Kacchabeswarar (Kacchabam - tortoise) mandir held by a group of Atheists. The audience was around 200. @Vadicwarrior Image
The leader swore that he would demolish all mandirs, build industries in those places & provide jobs to everyone.
Inside the Kanchi mutt, Periava called for the Paatti (elderly woman) who used to serve butter milk in front of the mutt. He told her to make an 'Unda' @AnuSatheesh5
full of butter milk. He listed the ingredients - asafoetida, curry leaves, green chillies, ginger, mustard (boiled). Sishyas & Bhaktas were surprised & were also worried because it was an ordinary day & there were not too many people at the mutt.
Meanwhile, the atheist's meeting

Do you know how Lakshmana killed Indrajit, S/O Ravana
A fierce battle was going on between Lakshmana & Indrajit. Indrajith power was increasing rapidly & Lakshmana declining, so as per Vibhishan suggestion that Indrajith cannot be killed with any astra at last
@LostTemple7
Lakshmana started his own hymn/mantra on Sri Rama to create a new astra
धर्मात्मा सत्यसन्धश्च रामो दाशरथिर्यदि || ९०-६-७१
पौरुषे चाप्रतिद्वन्द्वस्तदेनं जहि रावणिम् |

Dharmatma satya sandhasya Ramo daasarathir yadi |
Paurushe cha apratidwandwam sarainam jahi Raavaneem ||
Meaning of this shloka:
Dharmatma - If Sri Rama followed 100% Dharma whole heartedly
Satya Sandhasya - If Sri Rama never lied in his life time
Ramo Daasarathir Yadi - If Sri Rama really born to king Dasaratha
