In this episode Sri. Prabhakar garu is explaining Vedic Heritage and Tradition.
Veda-s knowledge has been attractive to many from times immemorial. Tradition is a flow, it is a long flowing river of knowledge. Veda is knowledge, it is “Sampradaaya/m,” “Pradaana,” it means to give away to people, in a proper manner given to us by ‘Rishis’, or ‘pashyakas.’

‘Atharva’ means pain-free; ‘Seersha’ means prime, the most important. The most important vidya/knowledge of all Vidyas that gives all round success, all round happiness, removes all sorts of obstacles, and is beneficial in all ways is the Ganesha Vidya – “ Ganesha Aatharvaseersham.”
On reciting “Ganapati Atharvaseesrham,” one is blessed and receives and dwells in pure happiness – ‘Anandaanubhava.’
