Read this Mahaperiyava incident for background:
https://periva.proboards.com/thread/548/oldest-language-world
Tamil or Sanskrit does not matter. What matters according to
Maha Periyava is to faithfully reproduce the sounds of the mantras
after hearing it from the teacher. That is why Vedas are called
Sruti (that which is heard, not read from a book). Many
patasalas to this day use Grantha Lipi books as a secondary aid
and not Sanskrit texts. So Sanskrit is not crucial, but hearing and
reproducing sounds faithfully is crucial. According to Mahaperiyava
this Vedic language predates Sanskrit, Tamil and Hebrew.
It might be of interest to know in many places in Vedas, it
directly contradicts Sanskrit language rules, grammar and pronounciation.
2 famous examples in Mahanarayana Upanishad: a) Atmaya Namaha, Atma Lingaya Namaha
instead of the grammatically correct sanskrit of Atmane Namaha.
b)Padhbhya mudarane sihsnya (you have to hear this, writing down is hard)
instead of the gramatically correct version way of reading the word as it is written on paper.
This is because the Taittreya Sutrakarar has laid it down this way for Taitreeya Krishna Yajur Veda.
However, in Rig Veda Shakala Shaka same mantra is pronounced as per Sanskrit rules.
Bottom line: Use any book you want, but it is secondary to hearing from your Guru
and repeating.
Thanks ,Got the book from sri vignesh,they have published lot of books ,requested for the list.Namaskarams for publishing this book.
THANKS FOR THE POST. KINDLY CONFIRM IF IT IS IN GRAANDHAM THEN THOSE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW CAN THEY READ IT. IF IT IS IN TAMIL EVERY ONE OF US CAN READ IT. MAHA PERIAVA SAANAM. Jai Ma Bharath.
Periva Sharanam…. It is clearely mentioned there that it is in Sanskrit and useful for those people who learned Sanskrit. Secondly, please avoid reading Mantras in Tamil as you cannot give correct pronouciation and without that Mantras will not yield the expected result.
Maha Periyava himself had said We shouldn’t discriminate Tamil like you said . Jayendra Periyava had said about in an interview in Sankara tv that you can start learning Vedic mantras by listening and reading then going to vaidika to correct . Of course it was said in a different context but the point is giving importance to Veda as Santanam and paying homage to it and ways we can . Also about language It may not matter if you read word Shiva in Tamil Sanskrit English or whatever language . If you extend Bhagavatham story about glory of word Narayana to the word Shiva considering that there is no Hari Hara bheda somebody who says Shiva without realizing the potency maybe granted the benefits. We are all infinitely small to know even a bit of ways of Sanatanam. So we should encourage people rather than stamp out desire to learn .
Periva Sharanam!
Namaste Sri Anon Garu. With due respect, while I strongly second your opinion of not to discriminate any language, Tamil is not an exemption. Moreover Tamil is very ancient language after Sanskrit and Tamil is my favourite language as I was born in Madras learned till my degree level. Where is the question of discrimination comes here? As you and everybody knows that Tamil lack some letters and pronouncing Sanskrit words via Tamil letters is difficult. People very familiar with Sanskrit words somehow manage the Sanskrit words written in Tamil, but not everybody is very familiar with Sanskrit. That’s why now a days 2, 3, 4, numbers added as superscript to Tamil letters to give correct sound to that particular letter. What about people did not learn Devanagari to understand this purpose to give correct sound to the letters? I learned the Sanskrit reading, why need Tamil to chant Mantras? If you understand my intention, probably you would not blame me. I am basically a Translator of Southern languages along with Hindi and English. I know the difficulty to translate words from and to Tamil.
You said, ‘it is not matter if read ‘Shiva’ in Tamil or Sanskrit. Please note that people in Tamilnadu write ‘Shiva’ as சிவா rather than as ஶிவ. The first letter sound changes and the second latter ‘deergham’ changes the meaning. ஶிவ is Lord Shiva and ஶிவா is Goddess Parvathy. Hope you know it that Indian languages are Phonetic and sound made according to the letters combined as word and the sound that makes all the difference in giving the power to the word. Is it convincing to you Sir?
You were saying about ‘Hari Hara bhedam’. Since I did not discuss about this, I am not answering this and I am fully agree with what you have said in that.
My point is Mantras will give its result when it is pronounced correctly for which we need to learn Sanskrit. With Tamil, without basic idea of Sanskrit word pronunciation, it is difficult and will not give its full result. Period.
In anyway, if I did hurt your feelings, I beg your pardon Sir!
Periva Sharanam.
