Dear list members
I've been a silent member of the list for some time,
following with interest many of the discussions taking place, but
until now was busy at university studying for my degree and haven't
had a chance to post.
By way of introduction: I am 22 years old, living near
London, UK. My parents hail from Mysore and Bangalore, and settled
here over 30 years ago. We're of Sama Vedi lineage and I've been
searching for the (notoriously elusive!) Sama Upakarma procedure for
a couple of years now since my upanayanam. To my knowledge there are
no practising Samavedis in the UK so it's not possible to get it done
at a temple here.
Recently while in India I found a copy of the procedure in
Kannada, as well as the Tamil PDF from Ahobila Matham website.
However my kannada and tamil reading is a bit slow; so I've tried to
put together a Roman transliteration of the procedure. In light of
what some other members have posted, I'm very unsure of the
correctness of certain sections. However, the tarpaNam section should
be mostly correct and if anyone in this group would like an English
script transliteration I'd be more than happy to post it/send it...
Lastly, is it possible to get hold of the mantras for maunji,
ajina and danDa? These aren't in either of my sources and I'm not
sure if they are they are the same as for Yajur Vedis. Also I'd like
to know at what point in the upakarma procedure they should be
recited. Any help would be much appreciated.
best wishes,
Ranjan
