HR-351: Hindu Heritage Study Program - Book - 4: - This presentation, "HR351 - Rituals and Prayers for Spiritual Realization", as a paper back print book in 108 lessons, explains the principles behind all the rituals and the devotional prayers, as routinely performed in traditional practice. Hindu Dharma Practice is for seeking a Realization of the Eternal Truth. Here, we will try to understand the importance of the practice of devotional prayers and V?dic rituals to get the ultimate spiritual realization of the Supreme Truth. This may look like a blind following for some of us but it will look better if we get an understanding of the meaning behind the several prayer routines in Devotional path as also in the rituals followed in the practice of the Veda teachings with rituals for fire and water along with prayers to the natural elements. This study also explains and compares with various groups in their approach to this Reality and also has a comparative look at other world religious groups and their thoughts as quite comparable. It shows the principles of this truth as in our ancient tradition and practice in detail for the students, teaching about the Religion as a Dharma. Here we study the messages given to us in the Karma parts of the V?das, Mim?msa Dharsana, ?gamas, Dharma Sh?stra and also the common traditions followed for prayer services and Nithya Karma. We will analyze the true nature of this Reality as the One that created this world and protect all its creations. We will also consider as how the humans are given a free-will to act under the dharma and their v?sanas and thereby enjoy or suffer from those actions according to the effects of their Karma (Actions). This will explain how a Spiritual discipline and mental conditioning with surrender to the Divine is attained by these prayers and rituals that will help us get the ultimate Spiritual Realization. This is as much as one can get from deep meditation and intensive study of texts to attain that "Intuitive Wisdom". These lessons are useful for practicing Hindus around the world to get the proper understanding of the several paths in their faith and their beliefs. All these traditions are like different lanes in the path to reach the same goal of realizing the divine Supreme. The various forms of practices are explained along with the solid Unity in the principles that lies beneath the bewildering diversity in these paths that is being practiced.
