In the transcendental state, God is the only reality… But is the relative world in which we live. He is the king of kings. The Hindu worships the deity in the temple as a great King and receives boons from him. This is an experience of life. Just as the king is roused from sleep with music and panegyrics early at dawn, the deity at the temple is worshipped with Suprabhathams. When the devotee wakes up from a refreshing night’s sleep, he first worships the lord with fervour. The sacred vibrations that flow into the devotee because of contemplation on the divine form at dawn, give him the strength and power to see life in the proper perspective. In this excellent album, there are powerful dawn hymns like Sriman Narayana (in the delightful morning raga Bhouli), Uchishta Ganapati Suprabhaatam (victory in all endeavours) and Yogalakshmi Narasimha Suprabhatham (good luck, victory over enemies, riches). The muthuswami Dikshithar hymn to the sun, (Suryamurthe in raga Saurashtam) is filled with mantra power, and ensure good health. The Pratasmaranam hymns (morning prayers) on Lalitha, Shiva and Durga are divine prayers that confer great blessings on the devotee. The Gayatri Mantras brim with powerful vibrations. The Gayatri mantra proper confers a mighty intellect, strength and spiritual vision. Sudarshana Gayatri (victory, power, protection) and Dhanvantri Gayatri (health, energy) are valuable mantras. Om, the one-syllabled name of the Almighty is the pinnacle of mantra power. By awakening the Lord, one awakens one’s won luck, spiritual vision and divine energy.
